We opted for Lobster because the scope of the programme best meets our requirements. At the same time, the fair pricing model allows us to expand Lobster_data at any time.
Werner Köchle,
ARCELOR relies on Lobster.
Insufficient data integration and manual data entry were just some of the challenges that ArcelorMittal had to overcome. Standardised delivery processes were also not possible due to highly specific customer requirements.
It was only with Lobster_data’s automated data integration that the company was able to dispense with the manual input processes that had previously been necessary. The reliable transmission of important certificates to ensure steel quality, such as chemical compositions and mechanical properties, significantly reduced the error rate and therefore also costs. A gain in time and efficiency for the entire company.
