关于客户
普利茅斯管材公司 (Plymouth) 是一家全球供应商,为机械、压力、锅炉和液压应用提供特种碳合金、镍合金和不锈钢管材。家族企业普利茅斯致力于提供优质的产品和服务,在美国东部地区拥有 11 家制造厂。该公司拥有 800 多名员工,成立于 1924 年。普利茅斯管材公司是一家精密钢管制造商。
挑战
普利茅斯管材公司在一次年度场外管理会议上指出,其产品定价流程的手动性质是一个严重缺陷。每位客户服务代表 (CSR) 都根据价格表、市场知识、客户和其他通常未记录的“部落知识”来准备报价。该流程本身很繁琐,这让普利茅斯及其客户都感到沮丧,尤其是当备用 CSR 代替不在办公室的 CSR 时。
解决方案
Plymouth Tube Co. 决定实施 Axis 属性定价模块来管理销售订单,这是 Aptean 的解决方案,专为金属和电线电缆行业设计。该团队与 CSR 密切合作,分析他们的流程,并很快建立了一个定价模型。添加 Axis 属性定价模块的另一个好处是,它可以在新产品出现时强化公司的定价政策。系统现在会告诉他们新产品的表格是否缺失或不完整,这样他们就不会在报价过程中被打断或报价错误。

Continuous Casting Machines in a Steel Factory
With a very broad range of applications, steel is an important material and has been developed into the most extensive alloy in the engineering world. Since delivering high quality is absolutely crucial for steel plants, ensuring maximum productivity and the best quality production are the keys to competitiveness in the steel industry. Additionally, working conditions in steel factories are not suitable for workers to stay in for long periods of time, so manufactures usually adopt various machines to complete the steel production processes. However, the precision of these machines is often overestimated and the lack of flexibility also makes supervisors unable to adjust operating procedures. A renowned steel factory in Asia planned to improve its Distributed Control System (DCS) of furnaces as well as addressing the problem of insufficient accuracy. However, most well-known international equipment suppliers can not provide a satisfactory solution and local maintenance because the project needed new technologies to more accurately control equipment operations. By implementing Advantech’s automated monitoring and control solution, steel factories can not only improve the manufacturing processes but can also allow users to add additional functions to the existing system so as to make sure the operation runs at high efficiency.
