Integrated Information Systems
The closed loop manufacturing resource planning (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
- 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.
At The Remington Group, 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;
- Post-implementation success assessment.
The manufacturing organization is a unique entity requiring a distinctive systems strategy. At The Remington Group, we recognize this uniqueness and develop an objective strategy for integrated systems. To contact us, click here or call
