| Campbell Scientific Wants Infor for ERP |
--- |
Campbell Scientific , a manufacturer of data acquisition and control products, has selected Infor ERP SyteLine for 25 users at its European headquarters. Campbell Scientific, which provides data acquisition instrumentation such as data loggers and remote weather monitoring stations, will deploy Infor ERP SyteLine to help integrate production, purchasing, sales, accounting, contract management, warehousing and service functions. The solution will help streamline workflow, allowing the company to drive efficiencies and hone a competitive advantage.
Campbell Scientific's current ERP system has been in place for a decade and, despite extensive customisation, could not keep pace with the changing needs of the business. Campbell Scientific needed a new, standardised ERP system that offered both rich functionality and ease-of-use. |

Hello, stranger! Welcome to ERP-BLog! Be careful,

ERP system - Enterprise resource planning, is an enterprise-wide information system designed to coordinate all the resources, information, and activities needed to complete business processes such as order fulfillment or billing.
An ERP system supports most of the business system that maintains in a single database the data needed for a variety of business functions such as Manufacturing, Supply Chain Management, Financials, Projects, Human Resources and Customer Relationship Management.
An ERP system is based on a common database and a modular software design. The common database can allow every department of a business to store and retrieve information in real-time. The information should be reliable, accessible, and easily shared. The modular software design should mean a business can select the modules they need, mix and match modules from different vendors, and add new modules of their own to improve business performance. Wikipedia
SCM - Supply chain management is the management of a network of interconnected businesses involved in the ultimate provision of product and service packages required by end customers (Harland, 1996). Supply Chain Management spans all movement and storage of raw materials, work-in-process inventory, and finished goods from point-of-origin to point-of-consumption (supply chain).
Ideally, the data for the various business functions are integrated. In practice the ERP system may comprise a set of discrete applications, each maintaining a discrete data store within one physical database. Wikipedia
CRM - Customer relationship management, consists of the processes a company uses to track and organize its contacts with its current and prospective customers. CRM software is used to support these processes; the software system can be accessed, and information about customers and customer interactions can be entered, stored and accessed by employees in different company departments. Typical CRM goals are to improve services provided to customers, and to use customer contact information for targeted marketing. Wikipedia
While the term CRM generally refers to a software-based approach to handling customer relationships, most CRM software vendors stress that a successful CRM effort requires a holistic approach. CRM initiatives often fail because implementation was limited to software installation, without providing the context, support and understanding for employees to learn, and take full advantage of the information systems. Wikipedia
MRP - Material Requirements Planning, is a software based production planning and inventory control system used to manage manufacturing processes. Although it is not common nowadays, it is possible to conduct MRP by hand as well.
MRP II - Manufacturing Resource Planning, is defined by APICS as a method for the effective planning of all resources of a manufacturing company. Ideally, it addresses operational planning in units, financial planning in dollars, and has a simulation capability to answer "what-if" questions and extension of closed-loop MRP. Wikipedia
