Manufacturing Solutions

Manufacturing companies around the world have implemented ERP applications and processes designed to manage information, product development, and transactions in specific areas of their business. But planning is only a part of the problem; the greater impact can be achieved with proper execution. While different applications can do particular functions reasonably well, an entire business process (from order to shipment) usually encompasses many individual processes across many systems and applications and many functions within different departments (check availability, credit check, order processing, shipping process, billing etc.).

In most cases, existing applications and individual processes were not designed to work together, so manufacturers have relied on human intervention to conduct activities that span the business, which increases costs and introduces delays and errors. The incompatibility between information and processes also prevents managers from monitoring key performance indicators in real time to proactively resolve order fulfillment bottlenecks, shorten time-to-market, and detect any friction within the supply and demand chain.

TIBCO solves these problems by aggregating and synchronizing data throughout the extended organization, including partners and customers; streamlining processes, by delivering relevant information to the right people at the right time; and automating activities that span applications, people, and organizations. By doing so, TIBCO enables manufacturers to optimize their operations for maximum speed, efficiency, and predictability at minimum costs; give customers and partners more complete and accurate information; and more quickly identify and respond to changes and opportunities throughout their business and in their market.
