Crossing the IT and physical facilities management chasm, Schneider Electric is the fastest-growing, most innovative company in the building automation industry today. The company’s mission is to provide added value through building environment services for indoor climate, security and use of energy, delivered with advanced technology to end users and property owners throughout the world.  Schneider Electric established the concept of Open Integrated Systems for Building IT™ in the market. Its open, standards-based technology enables customers to integrate heating and cooling, access control, security monitoring, ventilation, fire and smoke control and lighting across enterprises. This approach reduces training and maintenance costs, increases energy savings and adds value by collecting and sharing vast amounts of pertinent facility and financial data, helping customers run more profitable buildings. 

To assist in its value add venture, Schneider Electric elected to use Infor Baan V to run its business.  As a complement to that, the company also implemented InforBarcode – a data collection solution that takes ease of use to a new level in Infor Baan and ERP LN products, and adds a broad range of powerful features that help companies maximize their enterprise investment.  Schneider Electric uses InforBarcode for the following functions: Purchase Order Receiving, Transfers, Putaway, Item Inquiry, Stage Material, Serialization, Shipping Dashboard, Super Shipping, Cycle Count and Physical Inventory, Report Operation and Report Operation Completion with Putaway.
