Nilon’s Selects Matrix Solutions for Better Execution of its Agrarian Supply Chain

Matrix Solutions helped Nilon achieve Enhanced Network Infrastructure; Improved Supply Chain Management; Reduced Complexity and allowed for Multiple Network Access.

Like other manufacturing factories, the food processing industry relies greatly on efficient communication between the head office and the manufacturing units. However, communication between the branch offices also becomes crucial to streamline the raw material exchange between different units and dispatch the finished goods to the designated locations. Inept communication can lead to product delivery delays and consequential losses.

Introduction

From a small beginning in 1962, Nilon’s India Private Limited has now grown to become one of the renowned producers of packaged food items. Being an ISO 9001:2000 certified company, Nilon’s has always remained steadfast in quality control and customer satisfaction. Headquartered in Pune, the company has manufacturing units at Utran, Museli, Dharangaon, and Jalgaon in Maharashtra and at Dalgaon in the North Eastern state of Assam.

To ensure only the best reaches the consumers, state-of-the-art microbial and quality control labs are indispensable parts of its manufacturing facilities. Such high standards can only be maintained when there is a robust communication network between the head office and processing units.

To suffice the need of bringing head office and production factories under a single connection lattice, the company was looking forward to installing an EPABX at the head office. However, they wanted to bring other units under the communication network as well. While the head office had Matrix products, the other units had third-party PBXs which had to be integrated with the central device at the head office. Manufacturing units scattered over the entire state also posed a challenge of instant connection.

As the company had specific requirements, specifications of all communication solutions available in the market were thoroughly studied before finalizing a purchase. They invested in Matrix Telecom solutions after evaluating the system performance in different conditions.

Challenges

Primary challenge was the multi-location installation and setting up of all the systems over the same network. Apart from configuring the internal communication over VOIP, the customer also wanted to allow an Analog network to be used for external communication. Another essential challenge was integrating the existing third-party system with the newly installed Matrix system at the head office over the common VOIP network.

Solution

The team of indigenous engineers at Matrix, in association with Enkay Infosol, closely studied the difficulties faced by the customer and designed a solution with the following:

Unified Communication Platform for Growing Enterprises

The latest Unified Communication platform was installed at the head office to serve as the heart of the company communication web. It is a future-proof solution, offering IP at its core with seamless connectivity to all-pervasive legacy and new-generation wireless networks like POTS, ISDN BRI, T1/E1 PRI, and GSM/3G/4G. The system was given 200 extensions and PRI trunk access, along with being configured on VOIP to be connected to the branch office EPABXs and Gateways.

VOIP-FXO-FXS Gateways – SIP Trunking Gateways for VOIP Migration

The manufacturing units were supplied with VOIP Gateways to extend VOIP benefits to the older EPABX systems established at the site. Gateways acted as an adjunct to the existing PBXs and thereby, allowing the migration on the VOIP without a major change in the existing communication infrastructure. A total of four Gateways were employed at four distinct manufacturing locations.

Web-based User Interface for Configuration and Management

Matrix platforms are equipped with a one-step GUI platform, with the help of which in-house IT engineers can configure and manage the communication system from the head office. This saved a lot of time, resources, and effort in case of managing the systems as it can be done centrally.
