Modernizing operations through ERP upgrade for Global
Leader in Onboard Catering Equipment
How a fragmented quality process was transformed into a predictive, compliance-ready system for scale
Crohn’s & Colitis Foundation enables tech innovations with a successful strategic partnership with Coserve for Infrastructure modernization.

The Story

This customer is a global leader in lightweight onboard catering equipment for aviation and railway industries, supplying over 200 airlines worldwide with innovative trolleys, containers, and galley inserts.

Headquartered in the Netherlands and now operating independently, the organization manages a fleet of over 650,000 units in service globally, with manufacturing operations in Thailand, where fuel efficiency, sustainability, and operational precision drive competitive advantage. .

Operating at this scale means managing: :

  • Global supply chain serving 200+ airlines across continents

  • Complex intercompany goods transfer between business units

  • Manufacturing transition from US to Thailand operations

  • Thailand's intricate local taxation and compliance requirements

Challenge

When legacy systems can't support global manufacturing complexity

Aviation catering equipment manufacturing requires accurate costing, seamless PLM-ERP integration, and efficient intercompany operations. Yet operations ran on outdated BAAN IV with inefficient MAUC costing. SmarTeam and ERP worked in silos. Thailand taxation was unmanageable.

What should have been streamlined became operational bottlenecks during critical US-to-Thailand manufacturing transitions.

Key pain points

  • Inefficient MAUC costing causing inventory valuation errors
  • SmarTeam and ERP operating in silos without integration
  • Complex intercompany goods transfer processes between units
  • Inability to handle Thailand's complicated local taxation system
  • Legacy BAAN IV unable to fulfill evolving business requirements

Transformation

Modernizing operations through ERP upgrade and intelligent integration

Infor LN FP7 replaced BAAN IV in Thailand, with standard costing implementation, SmarTeam-ERP interface development, and Thailand taxation features, supported by Coserve's AMS team. .

Together, we delivered a unified manufacturing platform that:

  • Implemented standard costing for optimized inventory valuation

  • Developed custom interface connecting SmarTeam PLM with ERP seamlessly

  • Deployed advanced planning, warehousing, and finance for intercompany transfers

  • Configured Thailand local taxation features for compliance

  • Provided dedicated logistics, manufacturing, and finance support for business stabilization

Operations stopped being fragmented. They becameglobally integrated..

Business Outcomes

From legacy constraints to manufacturing excellence

Impact felt across manufacturing, finance, and supply chain globally. Costing accuracy achieved. SmarTeam-ERP communication became seamless. Intercompany transfers optimized. Thailand's taxation automated. US-to-Thailand manufacturing transition executed smoothly with continuous AMS support.

  • Optimized standard costing and accurate inventory valuation

  • Seamless SmarTeam-ERP integration eliminating data silos

  • Efficient intercompany goods transfer between business units

  • Automated Thailand local taxation compliance

  • Stabilized operations through high-quality, timely AMS support

The result: a platform built not just for today but for sustained global aviation manufacturing leadership.
