Tamini

About us

Tamini Trasformatori is a leading company in the industrial energy transformer sector. A historic company situated in Milan district and founded in 1916. It became part of the Terna group in 2014, becoming an industry leader through the acquisition of TES.

The collaboration with EOS began with TES, and then extended to Tamini, in a process of technological collaboration that reached its conclusion in the migration project to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central and in adopting Dynamics 365 Sales and Power BI.

Requirements

Tamini Trasformatori distinguishes itself through continuous growth and market leadership. The merger with TES and entry into the Terna Group required a review of business processes and technological evolution to support the change.

The process of migrating from Microsoft Dynamics NAV to Dynamics 365 Business Central first saw a review of the workflows, with the aim of driving the company to a more structured context: activation of the production and planning module, review of procurement and logistics, new planning logic.

The Solution

The collaboration between Tamini Transformers and EOS began in 2011, when TES adopted Dynamics NAV with the Engineering vertical for the management of the Engineering to Order. In 2016, in view of the merger within Tamini Trasformatori of subsidiaries TES and VTD, a process of ERP solution standardization begins: Dynamics NAV is chosen as the group ERP. In 2020, the project to implement Dynamics 365 Sales, Service and Field Service solutions begins, the goals can be summed up as following:

  • Starting of a digital transition process to optimize business processes
  • Building of a Customer Data Hub that can facilitate business collaboration and increase end-customer focus
  • Introduction of a single tool to manage Presales, Customer Service and Field Service processes

In 2022, the plan to migrate to Dynamics 365 Business Central lays on the following pillars:

  • Confirmation of Engineering solution, in the new ETO version
  • Review of processes to meet new organizational and process requirements and bring the project back to best practice
  • Introducing Power BI as an integrated business intelligence solution
  • Interfacing with external planning system, with new PDM and with supplier collaboration system
  • Interfacing with MES system & IOT
