Book Your Place
As a manufacturer, you need to meet increasingly rigorous customer
expectations with tremendous pressure on cost, quality and responsiveness.
And with customer demands constantly changing, you need the power
to exchange information between your factory and supply network
for a quick and effective response - a situation made ever-more
difficult with manufacturing being pushed out to distant locations
with stringent regulations driving the need for quality and compliance.
If you’re like most manufacturers, it’s challenging
- especially when manual integration between Enterprise Resource
Planning (ERP) systems and plant floor-level manufacturing applications
is common throughout the industry.
Join this unique web seminar and learn how SAP can deliver the
sort of timely information required to improve performance across
the enterprise, with the efficient collection and analysis of plant-level
data in a useable form, to all appropriate points on the factory
floor.
We appreciate your time is valuable but also recognise the importance
of the above to your business. This short seminar, featuring leading
industry experts, will not only be a valuable use of your time,
but also give you food for thought by providing best practice advice
and an insight on how similar companies to yours are powering ahead.
The web event's programme includes:
Synchronising Operations for Manufacturing Excellence
Simon Pollard, Discrete Manufacturing Industrial Principal, EMEA
NEWS, SAP
Simon will discuss the issues and concerns facing UK Manufacturers
and offer best-practice advice in embracing manufacturing synchronisation
and manufacturing excellence. Focus will be placed on the need to
provide a direct connection between shop floor systems and business
operations, with all data affecting manufacturing being visible
in real time, including information about orders, materials, equipment
status, costs and product quality. In addition, Simon will explain
how this approach will assist you in becoming truly adaptive, with
an integrated ERP solution that can profitably replenish the supply
network, while dynamically responding to unpredictable change.
Manufacturing Integration – SAP xMII
Tim Mayes, SAP Solution Manager, CIBER
CIBER - SAP’s principal implementation partner for SAP xMII
(Manufacturing Integration and Intelligence) can help manufacturers
connect ERP to the plant floor in real time and deliver working
intelligence to and from production personnel. Typically implemented
within 4 to 10 weeks per plant, SAP xMII will deliver immediate
benefits.
Tim will demonstrate how the SAP solution can be integrated with
other manufacturing systems, such as manufacturing execution systems
(MES), shop floor automation applications and legacy solutions.
In addition, Tim will explain how SAP’s SOA (Service-Oriented
Architecture) platform will provide this integration directly out-of-the-box,
with pre-packaged connectors that speeds implementation and ROI.
The result is vastly improved interoperability of plant-to-enterprise
business processes that enable synchronised manufacturing operations,
and deliver a single version of the truth across the enterprise.
