MANUFACTURING
BUILDING A PRODUCTIVE GLOBAL ENTERPRISE
The global manufacturing industry is poised for a revolution. Consumerism is on a rise, leading to persistent pressures on industrial performance. Organizations in emerging markets and advanced markets each have their unique set of challenges to overcome. Companies in developing economies are constantly focused on reducing time to market and lowering costs while maintaining adherence to international quality standards. Larger companies look for expanding their distribution network to reach out to newer markets. Conglomerates worldwide are gearing up on innovation ideas in the areas of planning, budgeting and consolidation.
In today’s faced paced world, it has become a mandate for growing businesses to turn to technology as an enabler for achieving operational efficiency. Partnering with an experienced IT provider allows organizations to successfully nurture their core competency, coupled with the support of technology and business process optimizations.
At Godrech, we have worked together with more than 200 customers in discrete and process manufacturing disciplines across Chemical, Automotives and Machine Equipment, Metal Fabrication, Heavy Engineering, Printing and Publishing, Food & Beverages, Textiles sectors.
Our solutions for the manufacturing vertical are focused on:
Supply Chain Integration
OEMs worldwide have realized the importance of supplier inclusion as a key strategy for achieving best results. With a supplier portal, suppliers have access to forecast information giving them lead time to plan their stock levels. Electronic movement of component specifications, purchase orders, invoices and payment receipts through system interfaces saves time, effort and costs for both supplier and manufacturer. Synchronous supplier relationships have known to reduce time to market and cost overruns by as much as 25% annually.
PLM Solutions
Automation of the product development life cycle when customers choose from pre-built catalogs allows for standardization of costs, time, quality and productivity factors. To simplify manufacturing complexities, engineering documents and bill of materials designed using CAD/ CAM tools are fed from the PLM system into ERP systems for streamlining procurement, component traceability and costing activities.
.
Capacity Planning
Real time visibility into workloads is an essential feature that helps in protection of machines, labor and materials against the pitfalls of unprecedented demand spikes. Situations of excess or insufficient resources can be handled with real time machine and stock loading charts along with visibility into inventory levels at different locations.
Barcode & RFID Entry
Large manufacturing plants have super efficient production capacities in the range of 60,000 units produced in an hour. With barcode and RFID scans, multiple transactions can be compressed into a single optimized operation so as to expedite system processing for such large material volumes. This solution also minimizes the possibility of human error during manual data entry and leads to an accurate alignment between the system and the shop floor.
