Conference
In the conference I was substituting my boss by chairing a technical session for leading industry players and their executives. I also presented our conference paper.
The paper discusses a novel, holistic database system that stores all product, product development and production data in a relational database, and its integration to commercial ERP and CRM applications. The benefits of the system integration are clear for each employee from shop floor to top management in terms of money, time and risks. As traditional manufacturing execution systems lacks of business critical data, such as cost, pricing and availability information in readable format, our system is what finally links production, finance, marketing, sales and strategy processes together. Having this embedded in the system provides large cost savings, more agile customer service and improved profits. Finally everything translates into a capability of making rapid and controlled change management.
