Conference Information
If you've ever implemented an ERP system or managed your own homegrown manufacturing system, you'll understand these systems take a long time to implement, can be costly to customize and could even bring your shop floor operations to a screaming halt. To survive today, you need to quickly change manufacturing processes to meet market demand while fine tuning your operations to maximize efficiency, increase product quality, and improve cash flow.
View this IndustryWeek-hosted on-demand event to learn how Volvo Construction Equipment (CE), a division of Volvo Group and one of the world's largest manufacturers of construction machinery, met this challenge and:
- Accelerated its implementation by using a 'Core' enterprise deployment strategy across plants to develop, govern and implement best practices quickly
- Reduced manufacturing costs through more efficient manufacturing processes
- Improved quality with better visibility and control over end-to-end production processes
- Filled manufacturing operations gaps that ERP does not address
- Replaced and consolidated disparate manufacturing operations systems
