 soetek Empowers SL-Link Co., Ltd. to Implement SAP Cloud Core, Leading Transformation and Seizing Global Smart Operations OpportunitiesIn the wave of rapid changes in the technology industry, transforming traditional manufacturing advantages into the driving force for diversified operations has become the key to enterprise upgrading. Originating from semiconductor test interface manufacturing, SL-Link announced its partnership with soetek in 2022 to accelerate its global biotechnology deployment, successfully implementing the SAP Cloud ERP system. Through the establishment of an international-level digital core, the company aims to support cross-industry operational expansion and lay a solid foundation for the next wave of growth.
With Over Two Decades of Technical Expertise, Management Upgrades Become Essential for DiversificationSince its establishment in 1996, SL-Link has remained committed to the belief that “people are a company’s greatest asset,” continuously investing in technological research and development. In the past, SL-Link achieved an impressive milestone by reducing the delivery lead time of semiconductor HiFix products from six months at the original Japanese manufacturer to just four weeks, becoming a key partner to Micron and major testing houses.
As the company’s business scope expanded from IPC module design, the Internet of Things, and edge computing into the biotechnology sector, SL-Link began facing the challenges of multinational operations and industry diversification. To address increasingly complex operational demands, the company recognized an urgent need for a forward-looking management system capable of supporting its next stage of growth.
soetek Leads with Expertise, Streamlining Processes to Eliminate Data SilosAt a critical moment in its transformation journey, SL-Link chose soetek—an implementation partner with extensive experience—to work alongside the company. Beyond system deployment, soetek’s consulting team went deep into the organization’s core to help drive a shift in management mindset. By redefining and integrating master data, they fundamentally resolved long-standing data silos and achieved seamless integration between front-end and back-end information.
Through comprehensive process mapping, the soetek team successfully transformed traditional manual operations into a digitalized model. SL-Link noted that the most immediate impact after implementing SAP was speed. With the online approval system and automated reporting workflows built by soetek, idle waiting time and human errors were significantly reduced. The time once spent on cumbersome manual report preparation was dramatically shortened, allowing the team to focus its energy on product development and innovation.
