Operational Impact
The migration to the current version of glovia.com has brought about significant operational improvements for Fujitsu. The company has been able to standardize and automate its operations, reducing the total cost of owning a single company-wide application. The new system has also improved business application monitoring, enabling real-time operational measurements and full network monitoring. The workload is now spread across multiple servers, leading to the application running about five times faster than before the migration. The company now has enterprise-wide management of all their inventories, providing full visibility of all material movement within any location as well as between locations, both domestic and international. The improved planning and control capabilities have led to a drastic reduction in shipping errors. The company can now take comprehensive, company-wide counts as well as count smaller numbers of items with greater frequency, improving inventory accuracy to 99% and reducing Manufacturing Resource Planning (MRP) time from four hours down to 15 minutes. | |
