Machinery Manufacturing ERP and the “Smart Factory” you expect

In 2020, when black swans and grey rhinoceros attack frequently, the epidemic will impact all walks of life, including the manufacturing fields we are familiar with. How to realize the transformation of Intelligent Manufacturing in the field of machinery which relies too much on workers? “The more successful the digital transformation, the stronger the ability to resist risks,” said Wang Ping, global managing partner of McKinsey So, what kind of ERP is needed to upgrade the intelligent and digital chemical factory that everyone envies? Or in other words, what kind of mechanical manufacturing ERP can help mechanical manufacturing enterprises better realize intelligent and digital, enhance the core competitiveness of mechanical manufacturing enterprises, and resist all kinds of sudden risks? This has become a soul torture for the mechanical manufacturing ERP field in the mechanical manufacturing industry. It seems remote but very practical.

The managers of machinery manufacturing enterprises think that

Many managers in the field of mechanical manufacturing often put information, automation and intelligence on an ERP system for production, sales, finance, procurement and other departments. It seems that automation, intelligence and even digitization can be realized. Is that really the case? The “acloudear white paper on digital transformation of machinery and equipment manufacturing enterprises” (hereinafter referred to as “white paper”) released by acloudear, a digital transformation expert in the field of manufacturing industry, mentioned that after ERP, the managers of mechanical manufacturing enterprises will still carry out the following series of questions.

It is not only worrying, but also many facts have proved that ERP still can not complete the task on time; the data is still inconsistent, making the plan difficult; the production is still delayed; the customer is still unable to clearly understand the status of goods; there is still a loss of customers or can not bring profit Is this the smart factory you want? Is it also the ERP of machinery manufacturing industry that you are looking forward to? Of course not. If you think that you can successfully transform by choosing one of them, you also underestimate the powerful empowerment of manufacturing enterprises by industry 4.0.

What kind of ERP can help enterprises to realize intelligent factory?

In fact, whether it is “German industry 4.0” or “made in China 2025”, intelligent manufacturing and intelligent factory are difficult to explain clearly in a few words. In this case, we might as well take a look at it from the perspective of sap, the management master behind the Fortune 500 and the world’s leading digital transformation expert.

What kind of mechanical manufacturing ERP is needed?

In his white paper, acloudear, an expert in digital transformation of manufacturing industry, talked about three directions of digital transformation of mechanical equipment manufacturing enterprises: establishing digital core platform, establishing intelligent manufacturing platform, and establishing customer-centered innovation service platform. Intelligent factory needs to meet these three elements, how to meet these three elements? We take the digital supply chain and intelligent factory in the intelligent manufacturing platform as an example.

Digital supply chain needs to get through the end-to-end process from design to operation, so does intelligent manufacturing and intelligent factory. To provide customers with personalized product agile manufacturing, transparent production and logistics operations, automated production supply and execution (including WIP), intelligent data-driven quality control, etc.

In fact, acloudear also clarified these three directions in the white paper, as well as the successful digital transformation cases of Tianjin lihetai and Yantai Beite.
