About the customer
Johoku (Thailand) Co., Ltd. is a leading manufacturer of assembled wiring harnesses used in electrical appliances and automotive, serving global markets with a focus on quality and innovation. With 1,200 employees, the company is committed to operational excellence and digital transformation.
Johoku (Thailand) Co., Ltd., a manufacturer of assembled wiring harnesses used in electrical appliances and automotive, was operating with a fragmented ERP landscape that included Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2013, PRONES, and various barcode systems. With NAV2013 nearing end-of-support and PRONES soon to be retired, Johoku saw an opportunity to streamline operations, improve automation, and unify systems under a single platform. Their goal was to modernize their infrastructure, reduce manual processes, and enhance data security while preparing for future scalability.
A collaborative transition to the cloud
Fujitsu partnered closely with Johoku to implement Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central (D365BC) via a cloud-based subscription model. The engagement included a comprehensive Fit/Gap analysis, data migration, user training, and post-deployment support. Fujitsu deployed core modules for Sales, Supply Chain, Inventory, and Manufacturing, along with customizations such as barcode integration, forecast usage, and tailored reporting. “Fujitsu’s flexibility in adapting to our rollout plans and customizing the solution to our needs made all the difference,” said Natcharin Rojcharoenpanya Business Management Group & HR Assistant Manager at Johoku Thailand.
Streamlined systems, smarter operations
The transition to D365BC has enabled Johoku to retire legacy systems and simplify their infrastructure. With improved workflows, enhanced automation, and centralized data management, the company now operates more efficiently and securely. The cloud deployment also allowed Johoku to benefit from a 40% discount on a three-year subscription and eliminate on-premises hardware costs. The successful implementation has laid the foundation for future expansion into financial modules and traceability solutions.
