Optimizing Processes and Reducing Costs for Manufacturers of Industrial and Durable Consumer Equipment.
Manufacturers of industrial and durable consumer goods are under tremendous pressure to innovate, accelerate production cycles and minimize costs. To better compete, they must also continuously work to improve the customer experience.
Many manufacturers nd these objectives di cult to achieve. They’re plagued by high inventory carrying costs, oor machinery that breaks down and delays production, nished products that are rejected because they aren’t built to order specs, and missed SLAs that result in expensive penalties, not to mention frustrated customers. Managing warranties and staying on top of changing compliance regulations also put a burden on manufacturers’ back-o ce personnel.
It’s hard for manufacturers to optimize these operations. Administration work isn’t a core expertise. Plus, there isn’t the deep visibility needed to track records through the manufacturing process, and the largely on manual processes are time-consuming and error-prone. All this is exacerbated when ERP, CRM, accounting and other back-o ce systems aren’t integrated, making data management extremely challenging.
