Many of the world's leading manufacturers are establishing environments that provide a single, enterprise-wide visibility across its operations and equips them with the ability to develop a closed loop process in its manufacturing operations, leading to several benefits:.
* Cost and Productivity - including decreased manufacturing costs, increased inventory turns, productivity, reduced customer-experienced lead times, reduced manufacturing cycle times, and decreased WIP/Finished goods inventory.
* Quality - including reduced cost of quality, improved first-pass yield, reduced detection to correction cycle time and increased rolled- throughput yield, and improved nonconformance root- cause capabilities.
* Product Innovation - including increased market share, reduced cycles-of-learning in manufacturing and reduced new product introduction cycle times.
* Customer Satisfaction - including increased on-time delivery and improved order fulfillment.
In this session, Kevin Reale, research director at AMR Research, will detail some of the efficiency trends that manufacturers are currently facing.
Brad Leech, senior manager, electronic work instruction deployment, Lockheed Martin Aeronautics Company, will discuss how Lockheed Martin Aeronautics' vision of a common, integrated system became a reality, including the elimination of paper dependency, increased efficiency on the factory floor and wireless shop floor terminals.
David Blatner, director of Aerospace and Defense business unit with Visiprise will then talk about the importance of an integrated manufacturing operations solution.
