Need help with open source production planning?

Are you stuck with an open source production planning system that no longer meets your business needs? Contact Stibo Systems today — the global leaders in converting from an open source MDM production planning system.

 

The solution to this common yet costly dilemma is to decouple all master data from the consuming applications and business processes and manage it centrally through a core MDM platform — a platform that then feeds the various consuming systems and processes individually.

 

This approach provides you with a single, consistent view of product master data across the enterprise and supply chain, without forcing every department, business unit and supplier to use the same system or data format. It also allows you to eliminate the need for individually maintained data silos, while ensuring one version of the truth across all divisions, departments and channels.

 

Going back to the previous example, all systems within the retailer’s organization would show the same sweater as “MN Vneck LG 008.” When exchanging data with its supplier, the retailer would be able to maintain the same reference data without forcing the supplier to change its item classification, thus avoiding errors, lost productivity and incorrect orders.
