On Focus - Discrete Manufacturing
Whitepaper Series: Discrete Manufacturing in the Digital Age
When it comes to the future, the look at possible process optimizations should not be missing. The software sector has seen rapid development in recent years. Cross-departmental automated process mappings are on the advance in many places. This also applies to the transparency of calculation processes from sales to service.
Use the information provided here and reconsider your processes. Where does digitalization bring you quick success?
Whitepaper: Intelligent logistics optimization
Optimizing the way products are placed in picking areas allows your workers to save time. It lets them pick up multiple orders at the same time, using the quickest way.
Similarly, you can also save time by optimizing order distribution among available vehicles. Both tasks can be accomplished using mathematical algorithms.
Whitepaper: Concurrent Calculation
No company should ever fly blind. The flexible schema of cross-departmental calculation can be easily linked to various parts lists as well as Production and Cost Accounting.
The result is transparent preliminary cost calculations that give you reliable information on budget variances.
Whitepaper: Variant Configuration
Customers love customized products. But they’re not willing to pay a whole lot more for them than for standard goods. A variant configurator contains all the possible product combinations. It lets sales representatives advise their clients intelligently and provide them with information fast. This reduces engineering costs and allows for production to start automatically.
Whitepaper: Strategies for ERP Modernization
Half of all manufacturing companies today still use ERP solutions that are at least 10 years old. At the same time, digital technologies are evolving rapidly and new market players are adding to the pressure.
Learn more about how to carefully lead your infrastructure into the digital age with the "concept of small steps".
Whitepaper: Modern project management tools
Project planning is the heart of every manufacturing company. Its quality determines profitability and competitiveness.
Find out in this white paper how modern digital tools ensure that costs, deadlines and existing resources can be kept under control at all times - from the overall project down to the lowest structural plan level.
Whitepaper: New concepts for task-based planning
High delivery reliability and adherence to delivery dates are indispensable if you want to stay ahead of the competition. With complex material flows, however, classic planning concepts quickly reach their limits.
Learn more on how to use the innovative approach of task-based planning to ensure more calm and flow in production and at the same time improve decentralized detailed planning.
Whitepaper: Product Data Management
The topic "Integration of design and production" is a classic. Not only system integrators, but also Gartner sees the harmonization of design and production data as the most important topic in machinery and plant construction.
Learn more about the automated creation of CAD design data in the ERP system in this white paper.
Whitepaper: Harmonization of BOMs
Even in times of industry 4.0, the harmonization of BOMs is an important topic for many machinery and plant constructors. Especially companies with a high construction share are confronted with it.
Learn how the linking and the derivation of different types of BOMs works, for example when converting design bills of materials into production bills of materials.
Whitepaper: Mobile connection of the service
Digital technologies and mobile solutions help to make service processes more efficient, offer customers real added value and clearly differentiate themselves from the competition. Modern Microsoft technologies cover all phases of the service process.
Learn more about lean, mobile and seamlessly integrated solutions that are closely networked with the CRM and ERP system and how such a cross-system service process works.
