INTEGRATED INFORMATION SYSTEMS

The closed loop MRP II system approach has come full circle from excitement to disappointment and back to favor or as a means to develop, store, and communicate information. The emergence in the marketplace of several new Enterprise Resource Planning and Extended Enterprise Supply Chain systems as well as the retro-fitting of some "old" systems have heralded a renewed interest in integrated systems implementation.

Whether replacing a legacy system or planning a first time implementation, the issues are the same:

Selecting the right system;
Bringing together a cross functional implementation team; and
Structuring a disciplined work program.

In manufacturing companies, where paradigms have long lives, the decision to implement an integrated system can have far reaching implications, for systems often create paradigms.

Our approach to integrated information system implementation is a deliberate consulting process involving:

Cultural and management readiness assessment and programs to achieve readiness;
System evaluation and selection;
Development of procedural and discipline improvements required for success;
Preparation of detailed implementation plans;
Project management assistance during implementation; and
Post implementation success assessment.

The manufacturing organization is a unique entity requiring a unique systems strategy. We recognize this uniqueness and develop an objective strategy for integrated systems.
