The main advantage of K2 is its comprehensive range of modules that connect all departments of a business and production-oriented company. The vendor has an online overview of not only delivery and shipping dates, but also production dates and the state of progress of the part being produced. We rely on data in K2 when dealing with customers, and they appreciate the speed and accuracy of our information. The second significant benefit is the evaluation of transparent data from K2 – e.g. scheduled and actual machining times, registering dates in processing calculations, offers or vendor activities. The greater use of K2. imposes greater responsibility on employees to do their jobs.
