挑战
在部署 Infor® Birst 的网络化商业智能 (BI) 之前,管理财务、销售和制造流程所需的信息被锁定在多个系统中,只有技术专家才能访问。分散的分析团队直接从源系统提取数据,从而产生无法共享的信息孤岛。此外,高管级别的报告是手动的,不仅访问信息非常耗时,而且协调不一致的指标也非常耗时。这些手动流程大大增加了 Miller Industries 做出决策的时间,并极大地消耗了管理团队的生产力。
解决方案
Miller Industries 自 1998 年以来一直是 Infor 的客户,目前正在使用 Infor LN 企业资源规划 (ERP) 系统,并正在转向 Infor 的 CloudSuite™ Automotive 和其他基于云的应用程序(计划于 2020 年第一季度推出)。在了解到这个新一代云 BI 平台后,该公司决定实施 Infor Birst 作为其企业范围的 BI 和分析标准,该平台集成了包括 Infor LN 在内的各种数据源,是所有 Infor CloudSuites 的分析标准。目标是从单一数据源获取更多知识,以及通过移动访问这些数据,并更清楚地了解这些信息,以便管理层可以改进和加速决策,同时仍倾向于日常业务运营。Birst 平台使组织的各个层面都能够分析最新趋势,了解业务发展的驱动因素,并做出快速而明智的决策。

Predictive Maintenance for Industrial Chillers
For global leaders in the industrial chiller manufacturing, reliability of the entire production process is of the utmost importance. Chillers are refrigeration systems that produce ice water to provide cooling for a process or industrial application. One of those leaders sought a way to respond to asset performance issues, even before they occur. The intelligence to guarantee maximum reliability of cooling devices is embedded (pre-alarming). A pre-alarming phase means that the cooling device still works, but symptoms may appear, telling manufacturers that a failure is likely to occur in the near future. Chillers who are not internet connected at that moment, provide little insight in this pre-alarming phase.

Integral Plant Maintenance
Mercedes-Benz and his partner GAZ chose Siemens to be its maintenance partner at a new engine plant in Yaroslavl, Russia. The new plant offers a capacity to manufacture diesel engines for the Russian market, for locally produced Sprinter Classic. In addition to engines for the local market, the Yaroslavl plant will also produce spare parts. Mercedes-Benz Russia and his partner needed a service partner in order to ensure the operation of these lines in a maintenance partnership arrangement. The challenges included coordinating the entire maintenance management operation, in particular inspections, corrective and predictive maintenance activities, and the optimizing spare parts management. Siemens developed a customized maintenance solution that includes all electronic and mechanical maintenance activities (Integral Plant Maintenance).
Case Study
Hospital Inventory Management
The hospital supply chain team is responsible for ensuring that the right medical supplies are readily available to clinicians when and where needed, and to do so in the most efficient manner possible. However, many of the systems and processes in use at the cancer center for supply chain management were not best suited to support these goals. Barcoding technology, a commonly used method for inventory management of medical supplies, is labor intensive, time consuming, does not provide real-time visibility into inventory levels and can be prone to error. Consequently, the lack of accurate and real-time visibility into inventory levels across multiple supply rooms in multiple hospital facilities creates additional inefficiency in the system causing over-ordering, hoarding, and wasted supplies. Other sources of waste and cost were also identified as candidates for improvement. Existing systems and processes did not provide adequate security for high-cost inventory within the hospital, which was another driver of cost. A lack of visibility into expiration dates for supplies resulted in supplies being wasted due to past expiry dates. Storage of supplies was also a key consideration given the location of the cancer center’s facilities in a dense urban setting, where space is always at a premium. In order to address the challenges outlined above, the hospital sought a solution that would provide real-time inventory information with high levels of accuracy, reduce the level of manual effort required and enable data driven decision making to ensure that the right supplies were readily available to clinicians in the right location at the right time.
