PSI Awarded Contract by Tube Producer Vallourec & Mannesmann Tubes
Production management system PSImetals for tube mill in France

Berlin, 1 April 2008 – The PSI subsidiary PSI BT GmbH has been charged by
Vallourec & Mannesmann Tubes with the implementation of the production
management system PSImetals at its tube mill in Aulnoye, France. PSI will

quality at the shop floor level.

PSImetals continuously captures controls and monitors all production and
quality data and processes in the tube production. Constant, reliable
material quality throughout the entire production process and delivering

project phase for the complete rolling process of seamless tubes. Phase
two, covering the heat treatment and several finishing lines, will be

online inventory management (quantity and valuation), quality assurance and
a higher level of process control and transparency. In the course of the
harmonization of the ERP level the SAP-implementation afterwards will be
prepared. The implementation is planned for the end of April this year.
