Production Planning and Control with CANIAS ERP System


Planned production for unplanned situations

The CANIAS Production Planning and Control Module delivers advanced features to facilitate efficient implementation and control. Features such as lead time scheduling, component availability, capacity checks, and standard costing are available to ensure uninterrupted production operations. The CANIAS ERP PPC module meets and exceeds expectations for production requirements for all production types. All established processes for different lines of production such as unique production, production to order, batch production, custom manufacturing, and joint production can be planned and controlled.

CANIAS PPC enables user to utilize planning methodology (forward, backward, middle tabulations) that is best suited to meet their required delivery schedule. However, changing market conditions demand that these standard methodologies are no longer sufficient for calculation and optimization of the processing time.

Therefore CANIAS PPC integrates a control center that presents graphically supported planning methodologies derived from the supply chain. Freely configurable planning algorithms permit an even more detailed production optimization based on the planning strategy.

Criteria used for production planning algorithms include; shortest transaction time, earliest delivery time, setup costs optimization, best possible machine efficiency etc (see Capacity Planning Module).
Production Planning and Control Module

Knowing your production status in advance

All data relevant to production (planned orders, and production orders) are transferred to the PPC module through Requirements Planning. A graphical production network plan consisting of all production steps, generated from product trees (BOM) and routes, dynamically displays the current stage of jobs. An integrated production data acquisition system guarantees advanced calculation ability (for current and successive periods).

The various functions such as the formation of all work orders, aggregate and variable productions, product tree variances, variable work plans, and preparation of all production documents, are standard features supplied by the module. Data collected from a work plan and a product tree during execution of work orders can be changed on work order-basis at the time of production.

Consistent integration of batch and serial number guarantees tracking of used components even in multi-level vertical integration. The PPC module also offers quality assurance procedures in production, where work phases and product tree components that require quality assurance are recorded, along with quality control data, and are then linked to relevant inspection plans. If quality control results are within expected ranges, the production will be continued to next production step. Quality control instructions are provided from the document management system integrated with the PPC module.

Production Planning and Control ModuleCustom planning, flexible production

The high level of automation coupled with seamless integration guarantees an ideal production planning capability within the CANIAS ERP system. Continual changes in customer orders, changes attributed to internal requirements, delivery date postponements, and different scenarios resulting from external factors affecting production processes, can be rapidly planned for on an individual basis.

Ability to meet delivery schedules is getting more and more important, requiring mechanisms for production control to be utilized in the best available manner. The CANIAS PPC module presents several features for use in varying production environments.

PPC: The heart of the value chain

Production Planning and Control is one of the three main pillars of an ERP system. In an industrial production setting, the PPC module represents the heart of the ERP system.

The high level of integration of the PPC module with the CANIAS ERP system guarantees consistent production control, including integration with sales, sales planning, materials requirements planning, production, delivery, and financial accounting. Whether you are manufacturing made-to-stock or made to order products or deploying custom manufacturing processes, the CANIAS ERP PPC module provides you with the insights and management tools to efficiently plan, manage and control your production operations.

CANIAS ERP Implementation in Petro Middle East, ABU DHABI:


Petro Middle East (PME), a 100% U.A.E. National Company, engages in providing services and supply of engineering products for the Oil & Gas, Petrochemical industries and Utilities sector since 1995. PME represents a vast array of renowned international manufacturers specialized in engineering products and services. The management's vision and dynamism has enabled PME to surge ahead as one among the recognized and approved supplier with all major local and government companies in the UAE for the Oil & Gas, Petrochemical & Utilities sector.

While embarking on its ERP mission, PME had the primary objective of deploying an efficient system to streamline the day to day operations of its "Inside Sales Department" which formed the nucleus of PME's operations. Inside sales department is primarily tasked with handling daily enquiries, understanding the correct specifications, sourcing the prices and ensuring that tenders are submitted within the stipulated timeline. Further, it undertakes the expedition and logistics aspects of the customer order thereby providing the impetus for efficient and prompt deliverance. Since most of the engineering products were specification driven, majority of their customer requirements needed to be sourced back to back from the principle which makes the process lengthy and cumbersome to manage. It also required being flexible in managing the nuisances associated with an industry majorly supplying non stocking and feature specific materials as demanded by the customer.

The main challenge for the implementation of an ERP system was to come up with standard coding mechanics for its vast range of engineering products to ensure that they have a standard nomenclature thereby ensuring tracking, preventing duplication and ensuring availability of historical data. "Coming up with definite processes to manage the enquiries and criteria to distinguish the products enquired was a challenge by its own. We work against deadlines for both tender submission and delivery and required efficient mechanics to manage the tender time lines, revisions, mode of submission etc. Though I was skeptic initially, I engaged with Canias ERP consultants vehemently and all inside sales activities from enquiry receipt, bid evaluation, tendering, order, delivery and invoicing are streamlined in the system" comments Mr. Mohamad Basheer, Inside Sales & Customer Services Manager of Petro Middle East. 
Management was interested to ascertain the revenue generation against different business streams including trading, service, project and direct forwarding. Further, principals constitute the major element of its business operations and there required information pertaining to business performance by principal and the financial performance to the minuscule level of each order. Mr. Jamal Zaher, Managing Partner of Petro Middle East comments that, "Though I am yet to engage in ERP aided management decision making, I am sure it had added required vitality in our organization and look forward to harness its power very soon".

Canias ERP is been accessed from other locations by PME group companies. The fact that Canias is fully web enabled and its flexibility in undertaking customizations has come in handy for Mr. Karim Ghneim, ERP Administrator & IT Manager of Petro Middle East. "We have enhanced the system utility by adding in facilities for conducting bid evaluations, performance bond, bid bond, test certificates etc in the system. The availability of integrated document management is adding further dimension to the whole system utility by facilitating visibility within the organization for all commercial, contractual and HR related documents without any chaos".

Information Technology in UAE


Synopsis:

UAE IT spending is expected to reach US$3.8bn in 2012, up 5%, Government spending and investment should help to support the IT market, with further opportunities in sectors such as education, healthcare, utilities , banking and telecoms. Cloud computing, ERP Software, CRM and business analytics are among enterprise IT investment growth areas.

ERP Systems, Software’s & Hardware Expenditure Projections:

Computer hardware sales: US$1.9bn 2011 to US$2.0bn in 2012, +13.0% in US dollar terms. Forecast in US dollar terms upwardly revised due to stronger than expected retail sales growth in 2011.
Software sales: US$641mn in 2011 to US$681mn in 2012, +6% in US dollars terms. Forecast in US dollars terms upwardly revised due to analyst modification with the UAE being one of the regions’s fastest growing enterprise resource planning (ERP) markets.
IT Services sales: US$1.0bn in 2011 to US$1.1bn in 2012, +7% in US dollars terms. Forecast in US dollars terms upwardly revised due to analyst modification as services have become an increasingly important component of many deployment contracts.

Key Trends & Development in UAE:
·         The UAE market has received a buffet from global economic headwinds but demand for IT products and services should continue to grow in 2012. However, the property price slump and financial upheavals are likely to continue to influence business and consumer caution. Abu-Dhabi has been making most of the running in the wake of Dubai financials crisis.

·         Growth potential also exists in the less developed northern emirates of Sharjah, Ajman, Umm al-Qaywayn, Ras al-Khaimah and Fujairah. The emirates government has launched a major infrastructure investment program in the northern emirates, which could generate significant opportunities for IT vendors, despite relatively small population size.

·         One factor driving retail growth is a pick-up in the number of tourist visitors, which provided a boost to the all-important carry-trade, which had fallen off in 2009. An influx of tourist is expected to swell spending on consumer electronics goods such as notebooks and tablets. However, the possibility of UAE joining sanctions against Iran could have an impact on PC re-reports.
