cloud strategies, RamBase has been available in the
cloud since 1992. While only 2 percent of Gartner
survey respondents said in a recent study that they
had core ERP systems running in the cloud, almost
half indicated they planned to make the move within
five years. These numbers indicate that cloud ERP is
rapidly making the transition from the early adopter
stage into the mainstream.

As managing director, Frank Vignes was looking for an ERP system that
would be competitive in price and offer them value for their investment.
Årdal Maskinering required a system that could give them control and a
detailed overview of all processes.
As a growing business, the company needed a scalable solution that
would be adaptable in the future. Efficient change management is
extremely important, as edits to the production flow can lead to delays
and higher costs. Delivering products to the oil industry, customers of
Årdal Maskinering have high requirements for quality documentation.
solution
Today, RamBase offers Årdal Maskinering quality and traceability in all
areas of their business. After thorough process mapping, it was agreed
that a manufacturing based solution would be best for the company.
The RamBase manufacturing solution seamlessly integrates operations
to finance, sales, logistics, and procurement. RamBase is delivered on
a private cloud, which allows access to real-time business data through
any secure internet connection.
b e n e f i ts
Frank Vignes, describes the process of switching to RamBase Cloud
ERP as an exciting challenge. Leading the project of the ERP system
transformation, he was able to see ROI quite rapidly. With an integrated
system, information flows smoothly from when an order is received until
the product is successfully delivered to the customer.
The RamBase manufacturing solution chosen by Årdal Maskinering has
proven to not only save time and money, but also increase efficiency.
Delivered on a private cloud, sellers have been able to sign in over the
internet and see exactly what capacity is available for specific products.
Årdal Maskinering has also seen a reduction in capital expenditures
because hardware and power to run servers is not needed with
RamBase.

Tobias Lindgren, president of Nordic Light America Inc., needed
an ERP solution that would allow his company to sit in multiple
locations and work in the same system. The challenges of operating
in several markets include multiple locations, different currencies, tax
compliance, and languages.
As a growing company, a flexible ERP system is required as they
enter new markets and engage in new business operations. Running
a global business, Tobias also required a system that would give him
a full overview of processes and the ability to respond to customer
requests in all applicable markets.
solution
There has been one thing in common during Nordic Light’s expansion
across 4 continents; RamBase cloud ERP. Nordic Light initially started
using RamBase in Scandanavia and USA, and has now expanded
operations to Chile and India. As the company started up in new
countries, RamBase has given them the opportunity to easily set-up
operations in each location.
All processes across these multiple locations are synchronized in
one system. RamBase has given them a complete ERP system that
supports the procurement and worldwide distribution of components
and products that are manufactured at their own factories in China.
b e n e f i ts
RamBase gives Nordic Light the flexibility to adapt to new markets and
expand their business. Since everything is delivered on a private cloud,
they can work with everything from everywhere without worrying about
capital expenditures from hardware and power to run hosting servers.
With all data, always available they have been able to save time and
money on administration, accounting and book-keeping costs. The
company has also been able to track what has happened in different
steps, allowing them to respond quickly to customer requests.
As Nordic Light continues to grow, Rambase offers them more
functionality. This is an important benefit that gives Tobias optimism for
the future.
