Faced with dynamic market changes and competitive threats, manufacturers are broadening their focus from execution within a single facility or factory to manage operations across a global supply network. One goal is improved asset management and synchronization in a time when material and energy costs, variable demand, and globalization are forcing manufacturers to attain needed decision flexibility in their pursuit of profits and growth.
AberdeenGroup, a Harte-Hanks Company, recently surveyed a wide range of manufacturing executives and managers to gauge their responses as they shift focus from single site or single functional technologies to global operations in a dynamic market place.
Apriso, the sponsor of today’s podcast, provides leading global manufacturers Manufacturing Operations Management solutions that deliver agility at the enterprise level through real-time global visibility and control down to - and across - globally dispersed “shop floors.” This empowers manufacturers to better observe and address in real-time potential operations, quality or regulatory compliance issues. And, in combination with a manufacturer’s ERP system, Apriso provides customers better forecasts of operations to improve financial performance plans while accelerating return on ERP investments.
