The NorDan group manufactures doors and windows at its factories in Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Poland and Lithuania, with over 2000 employees focusing on sustainable quality products and satisfied customers.

Corporate Solution

AMS ensures joint group planning, requisition, and central distribution of production orders across the factories. The system facilitates internal component production with delivery to the various factories' planned production.

Each factory produces and reports individually, but the system ensures central updating of production orders to the primary and overarching ERP systems. Machine control for direct communication with machines and equipment allows NorDan to streamline and optimise the potential in the factories. direct MES is designed for operators to manage their production lines within a unified system.

Factory Needs

Each factory uses the same standard direct MES production solution but with customized configurations to meet individual needs.

NorDan utilises direct MES's production platform with tailored modules for some of its unique requirements, such as controlling the painting system and the operation of products for the conveyor system.

Digital Partner to NorDan

AMS serves as a digital partner for NorDan and plays a central role in projects related to acquiring new production equipment and improving production lines. AMS ensures the new equipment is compatible with existing systems and maintains regular status meetings to identify and review new or changed needs. This ensures that direct MES is continuously developed and adapted to NorDan's high standards of quality and efficiency.
