In difficult economic times, it is not surprising that managers across all areas are being asked to do more with less. In fact, 51% of respondents are feeling the pressure to manage change without increasing staffing or warehouse space. When demand grows increasingly uncertain, there may be a drive to focus and take action on those elements which are within your control: the costs of carrying inventory and its potential obsolescence, the cost of warehouse labor, and the potential inefficiencies of process that stand in the way of performance goals.

Thanks to growing customer demands and shrinking profit margins, there’s simply no room for a sluggish supply chain. That’s where mobile and wireless technologies are making a difference. From the production line to the checkout line, from the warehouse to the delivery truck, mobile solutions are replacing old-fashioned manual processes. By putting wireless computers into the hands of your work force, you eliminate time-consuming and error-prone paper processes. This increases accuracy, raises productivity, and improves collaboration up and down the supply chain. A synchronized supply chain helps:
Process manufacturers face an increasingly competitive global marketplace, one that requires new strategies to improve customer responsiveness and process excellence in ways that can be shared among far-flung locations and supply-chain partners.
Leading process manufacturers are particularly focused on maintaining high levels of control while simultaneously adding flexibility and adaptability to their operations. An important part of achieving this flexibility and adaptability in process manufacturing is implementation of a flexible and robust global network that can seamlessly integrate software applications and make customer demand visible to all network participants. This is no simple task, but Coded for Success: Improvement and IT for Process Manufacturers offers a start in that direction by providing a better understanding of:

Discover how to proactively monitor and manage assets – in real-time.
The current economic downturn, looming global recession, volatile energy and commodity prices and increasing budget cuts have put pressure on companies to establish strategies just to stay competitive in business. For asset intensive industries, this requires getting the maximum value out of what companies have already invested in assets. This benchmark report will highlight how, even in such a challenging environment, Best-in-Class companies are able to reduce cost, maximize Return on Assets (ROA), and achieve a competitive advantage through an asset reliability strategy resulting in improved profitability and shareholder value. Best-in-Class companies gain real-time visibility by being 83% more likely to adopt remote asset monitoring devices. Best-in-Class companies can proactively monitor and manage assets by being 3x as likely to implement Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM). Best-in-Class companies achieve 89% OEE by being 67% more likely to implement Condition Based Maintenance. This report was written by Aberdeen Group.
Explore the need for an effective information-driven infrastructure that will promote client satisfaction while meeting the company’s financial objectives.
In an era where the competitive market for goods and services continues to tighten, executives of project-driven organizations must increase their emphasis on the creation of extended, profitable relationships — much longer than just the initial sale. To succeed with an increased vertical integration strategy they will need an information-driven infrastructure that will promote quality, enhance sales, elevate loyalty, and increase profitability throughout the project lifecycle.
For many project-driven organizations, a project lifecycle can be segmented into three distinct phases: design, build and service. In each of these phases the organization that designs, creates and services an end product must have the information necessary to ensure that key organizational parameters (quality, cost, timeliness, profitability and client satisfaction) are met. However, SPI Research has found that the key to sustain growth and maximize returns is to not maximize these individual stages, but to think of it as a complete and interrelated cycle. By integrating the three phases productivity improvement is achieved. The ultimate goal would be to move from thinking project lifecycle” to a new “project profit cycle”.
