Hong Kong, September 1, 2017 - A world-class toy brand and manufacturer in Hong Kong has completed a major upgrade to VITOVA EIM’s data management system, which has long been an integral part of its enterprise resource planning (ERP) system. This upgrade focuses on the latest VitalDoc version 8.0 with enhanced functions to further improve the toy industry leader’s production and management efficiency, laying a solid foundation for its future success in brand development.

Diversified business for children’s development
Since its inception in 1952, this company has closely adhered to the philosophy of making children’s toys and entertainment products educational, fun and safe. Today it has been developed into a world-class toy brand and manufacturer in Hong Kong with wholly integrated design, manufacturing, sales and marketing.

To counter market change with ERP
The market reversal in 2005 triggered this traditional family-owned company to reposition its business in order to become a world-class enterprise. To improve its production and management efficiency, the company integrated its resources through the establishment of an ERP system. The integrated master system required a reliable enterprise-grade data management application to facilitate easy documentation and sharing among all the parties involved in the system.

Completing ERP with efficiency data management
The choice for this company was the web-based VitalDoc application of VITOVA, a competitive package with high usability, providing excellent functions of document searching, document cross referencing, secured document viewing, etc. The implemented VitalDoc served as a central repository behind the workflow system of the company to facilitate collaboration of its multiple departments. From product design to material purchases, they could efficiently complete the processes that involved numerous approval stages, projects, parties and locations, e.g. Hong Kong headquarters and Mainland factories. The adoption of VitalDoc fulfilled this conglomerate’s need for better communication and high workflow efficiency surrounding the integrated ERP system.

Latest upgrade for the best efficiency
With the all-round e-documentation support from VITOVA since nearly 10 years ago, the company has engaged a number of VitalDoc server and version upgrades for utilizing the latest VitalDoc functions and features. The company was also among the first batch of customers to apply VitalDoc version 8.0 in 2017. This major upgrade has greatly enhanced team collaboration efficiency of the company with a number of exciting features, particularly the integration of VitalDoc into the Microsoft Outlook interface enabling the simplest drag-and-drop email archiving and sharing.

To facilitate its ongoing brand development, the company has never stopped fine-tuning its ERP system. At the same time VITOVA EIM has been in place to provide reliable support for the system through enabling smooth data management, linking up all parties of this expanding group.
