For more than 70 years, Canon has delivered innovative products for moving and still images to customers around the world.<\/span>
\nThe company was founded in 1937. Canon developed into a global company operating in a variety of markets: Business Solutions, Consumer Imaging, Broadcast & Communications, Medical Systems and Industrial Products. Canon Germany was founded in D\u00fcsseldorf in 1973. The Gie\u00dfen site is mainly engaged in service and support for Canon copier systems and printers.<\/span><\/p>\n

Innovative ideas have always secured Canon a firm place at the forefront of the industry. Whenever businesses and consumers choose Canon products, they are choosing reliable, stylish and advanced technology.<\/span><\/p>\n

Canon has been an Infor ERP XA customer since the early 1990s. The intention to start this project was originally to modernize the applications as a whole and to bring the entire infrastructure onto the same technological platform.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>

[vc_custom_heading text=“Project from 2015 until now“ font_container=“tag:h3|text_align:left“ use_theme_fonts=“yes“ css=“%7B%22default%22%3A%7B%22margin-top%22%3A%221px%22%7D%7D“]

In 2015, the first joint milestone planned was the upgrade. The heavily modified ERP system will be brought up to the Infor standard. Thus, future update costs were significantly reduced and the stability of the system was significantly improved. The next step was the implementation of a modern output management with Interform. <\/span><\/p>\n

In 2017, the first Infor ION solution for system integration was put into operation at Canon as part of the modernization of the IT infrastructure. The successful upgrade to ERP XA R9.2 then took place in 2018. In 2021, the Infor SCE implementation followed to optimize logistics. In the same step, a modern IoT solution was implemented for comprehensive control of the entire infrastructure. In 2022, SCE and IoT were further optimized. The next short-term goal is the modernization of the UI and the further rollout of the Infor OS technology. <\/span><\/p>\n
