Digital China Case: Talking about the Future with ERP

If the successful implementation of Digital China EasyFly ERP makes Xike Communication realize the transformation of information management, then upgrading to Yi Tuo ERP in 2007-2008 is another great leap in company management. ERP is like a communication tool for companies to talk to the future, helping communication equipment companies to connect with modern information management.

Xike Communication Technology and Equipment Co., Ltd. is a private high-tech group enterprise, mainly engaged in the research and development, production and sales of information and communication products, and is committed to providing advanced wireless communication products and technical solutions to users all over the world. Xike Communication has many manufacturers and trading companies in China, with an annual turnover of several billion yuan. Its main products are mobile phones, GSM wireless public telephone series GSM/GPRS modules and so on. In Heyuan Industrial Park, Guangdong Province, Xike Communication has a mobile phone assembly factory, an SMT automatic mounter factory, a mold and injection spraying factory, and the designed production capacity of GSM mobile phones reaches 6.5438+million units per year. This time, the original Efly ERP is upgraded to a high-end system-Yi Tuo, mainly to meet the needs of the company's group management, realize cross-factory and cross-regional management, and keep the informatization construction in step with the company's rapid growth. The implementation results of the first stage show that this decision is successful and it just solves the management problems faced by the company.

Pulse electronic production directly hits the management difficulties of the industry.

As a typical electronic manufacturing enterprise, Xike Communication has common characteristics in the management of electronic manufacturing industry. It is very necessary and difficult to prevent and find sluggish materials in advance. Electronic components include resistors, inductors, capacitors, diodes, triodes and so on. These products need to meet the industry standards, have strong versatility, and have a large choice for downstream manufacturers, which directly leads to the complexity of procurement management. Secondly, due to customer order changes, product version updates, supplier oversupply and other reasons. Old materials are no longer used, which often leads to dull inventory. Especially when selling goods or purchasing goods, it is often accompanied by a large number of spare parts in and out of the warehouse, so it is difficult to take into account the management of quantity and accounts. In addition, there are many kinds and specifications of materials in the electronic industry, which makes the inventory work heavy, the inventory cycle long, and even requires on-site shutdown, and the warehouse is frozen, which seriously affects the normal operation, while some parts are of high value and must be strictly controlled.

Mobile phone production in the electronics industry has its more specific management difficulties. With the rapid upgrading of mobile phones, the life cycle of new products is very short and the procurement cycle of some imported materials is longer, which is the most difficult contradiction to reconcile. The factory organizes production according to the order, and how to achieve the expected goal of 9-day delivery and reduce the dull inventory as much as possible is the most concerned issue for managers. The BOM of Xike Communication is relatively long, and the raw materials of a mobile phone often reach more than one hundred and two hundred, and the substitute materials are everywhere in the order. The use of alternative materials is distinguished by engineers, but the purchasing department often mainly considers price, function and cost performance, even materials with the same function may come from different upstream suppliers.

The general management of substitute materials is mostly in the inventory link, and many of Xike Communication are concentrated in the work order link. For example, when material A in one bill of materials can be replaced by A 1, A2 and A3, A is the first choice, while A 1 in another bill of materials can be replaced by A, A 1 and A4, and A 1 is the first choice, and so on. On the one hand, this situation needs to be adapted by software programming, on the other hand, it also needs the systematic cooperation of enterprise's own engineering change and supplier management.

Because the implementation consultant knows the industry like the back of his hand, the Digital China ERP system fits the process control and the solution is properly designed, which makes Yi Tuo ERP go online with strong pertinence and properly solves the above management difficulties.
