Tieto Corporation PRESS RELEASE 3 February 2011
at 2.00 pm EET
Tieto is modernizing the mill systems in M-real's board mills in Finland, which
will be completed by the end of 2012. According to the agreement signed by the
parties, the mills are implementing the latest versions of the Tieto Integrated
Paper Solution (TIPS). Tieto is also responsible for the maintenance service of
the systems.
The TIPS manufacturing execution solution will allow further standardization of
production management business processes as well as the seamless integration of
production with M-real's SAP Enterprise Resource Planning. The benefits include
improved visibility of information that is critical to the business.
"Tieto's solution meets our expectations very well, and the special features
required by our mill operations are easy to integrate with it. The strength of
the solution is its user-friendliness. We have used TIPS for ten years, and
during this time Tieto has developed the solution in such a way that we have now
at our disposal new features that are beneficial to our operational
environment," says Jukka Kettunen, responsible for production at M-real.
"I believe that our strengthened co-operation will further improve both the
maximization of the availability of M-real's mills and the standardization of
their business processes. The standardized toolset of the new TIPS solution
supports more efficiently the optimization of the production capacity of the
mills," says Ari Järvelä, responsible for Finnish and Baltic businesses.
Hundreds of paper, pulp and board mills all over the world use Tieto's systems
on a daily basis to manage their processes.
M-real's Consumer Packaging business area is the world's leading producer of
innovative premium folding boxboard, coated white top liners and wallpaper base.
The products are excellent for the packaging of cosmetics, food products and
confectionaries, for example.
