關(guān)鍵詞：ERP，精密化生產(chǎn)，成本管控

核心提示：隨著生產(chǎn)效率的不斷提高，降低運(yùn)行誤差，縮減監(jiān)控成本，提高產(chǎn)品質(zhì)量成為了廠商們競(jìng)爭(zhēng)的新目標(biāo)。如何才能用最低的成本實(shí)現(xiàn)這多方面需求？本期深度解析帶您探究降低云ERP開支的有效方法。

對(duì)廠商來(lái)說(shuō)云計(jì)算遠(yuǎn)非一個(gè)純粹的概念，云計(jì)算已經(jīng)到來(lái)，而且觸手可及。事實(shí)上，ERP廠商將云計(jì)算視為其核心競(jìng)爭(zhēng)力。單單是成本管控，在戰(zhàn)略意義上就非常吸引人，甚至是那些傾向于“買斷”軟件的廠商也這么認(rèn)為。以下是廠商們分享的云ERP幫助他們減少開支的經(jīng)歷：

一、減少?gòu)U料和現(xiàn)有庫(kù)存

Ralco Industries是一家汽車廠商及供應(yīng)商，專注于精確焊接部件、樣機(jī)。這位云計(jì)算的率先使用者通過(guò)求助云ERP確認(rèn)業(yè)務(wù)的問(wèn)題所在，同時(shí)節(jié)省了開支。在此之前，存在著庫(kù)存清單錯(cuò)誤，相互沒(méi)有聯(lián)通的多元系統(tǒng)的使用導(dǎo)致生產(chǎn)計(jì)劃被拖延，產(chǎn)品質(zhì)量下降，生產(chǎn)費(fèi)用激增，工作效率低下等問(wèn)題。

在使用了一個(gè)單獨(dú)的，聯(lián)通的云ERP軟件解決方案之后，Ralco的現(xiàn)有庫(kù)存減少了15%，產(chǎn)生的廢料減少了近60%,額外運(yùn)費(fèi)縮減了20%，為經(jīng)手的每筆交易縮減了近100美元。

二、降低IT成本，將資源轉(zhuǎn)移向增值業(yè)務(wù)

一家經(jīng)營(yíng)全部業(yè)務(wù)的金屬制造商，Jagemann Stamping公司(JSC)，用云ERP替換了他原先的“拼接在一起”的業(yè)務(wù)系統(tǒng)。由于數(shù)據(jù)保存在外部數(shù)據(jù)中心，JSC只需為他的系統(tǒng)用戶提供基礎(chǔ)的網(wǎng)絡(luò)連接，和并不昂貴的個(gè)人電腦即可。

結(jié)果是這家公司節(jié)省了將近15%的IT運(yùn)維費(fèi)和電費(fèi)。因?yàn)檫@家公司不再需要再時(shí)時(shí)監(jiān)督系統(tǒng)運(yùn)行狀況，從而可以將一半以上的員工重新部署到增值業(yè)務(wù)中去。這其中包括持續(xù)升級(jí)工程。經(jīng)確認(rèn)，此項(xiàng)工程已經(jīng)為公司節(jié)省了20多萬(wàn)美元。

三、提高質(zhì)量更降低花費(fèi)

Wolverine Advanced Materials，一家為汽車制動(dòng)系統(tǒng)提供定制技術(shù)的廠商。他們意識(shí)到自己手工錄制的程序已經(jīng)跟不上迅猛的業(yè)務(wù)增長(zhǎng)。公司通過(guò)運(yùn)行云ERP將生產(chǎn)規(guī)?；?，精密化，使之能夠?qū)⒊杀竞陀芰_到每個(gè)部件。云ERP員工能夠在車間里看到所有用戶的訂單并能夠按調(diào)度需求高效將材料分類。

這使得Wolverine 提高了生產(chǎn)力并降低了花費(fèi)。事實(shí)上，延期現(xiàn)象減少了60%，一次性通過(guò)的產(chǎn)品增加了15%-20%。

英文原文：

Cloud computing is proving to be more than a mere trend for manufacturers. In fact, those who have embraced?ERP technology?view cloud as central to their ability to compete. And for good reason. The cost benefits alone make it a compelling strategy—even to those who still believe they are better off “owning” the software. Below are examples of manufacturers who have experienced how?cloud ERP?helps them lower costs:

1. Reduce Scrap and Inventory on Hand

Ralco Industries?is an automotive manufacturer and supplier specializing in precision-welded assemblies and prototyping. The innovator turned to cloud ERP to address business problems—and along the way, it saved some money. Previously, inventory inaccuracy and the use of multiple disconnected systems led to inefficient planning, quality problems, high expediting costs, and wasted time. Moving to a single, connected cloud?ERP software solution?enabled Ralco to reduce inventory on hand by 15 percent, drive scrap down by more than 60 percent, reduce premium freight costs by more than 20 percent, and save nearly $100 per purchase order processed.

2. Lower IT Costs and Shifting Resources to Value-Added Activities

Jagemann Stamping Company (JSC), a full-service metal fabricator, replaced its “patched-together” business systems with cloud ERP. Maintained at off-premise data centers, JSC needs to supply only basic Internet connections and inexpensive PCs for its system users. As a result, the company saved nearly 15 percent in IT maintenance and energy consumption costs. Because the company no longer needs to oversee system maintenance internally, it has been able to redeploy over half of its IT staff to value-added activities. These include continuous improvement projects that have identified more than $200,000 of savings for the company.

3. Improve Quality While Cutting Costs

Wolverine Advanced Materials, a manufacturer of customized technologies for automotive braking systems, realized that its manual-based processes were not sustainable—especially when it came to accommodating rapid growth. The company went with cloud ERP to scale and adopt lean manufacturing, enabling it to accurately determine cost and profitability by part. Cloud ERP allows the employees on its plant floor to see all customer orders and efficiently group them by material for scheduling purposes. This has enabled Wolverine to improve productivity and reduce costs. In fact, overtime is down by 60 percent and first-pass quality has improved by 15 to 20 percent.
