Overview
"Microsoft's mission is to help energize, transform, and sustain manufacturers' lean initiatives. Whether you are just embarking on a lean transformation or are many years into your lean journey, Microsoft partners have created a new generation of solutions designed to meet the needs of the most demanding manufacturers. Come listen and learn more from our leading partners eBECS, Habaņero, and Kineticsware who have come together to discuss opportunities for extending Lean initiatives across your supply chain."— Jeff McKee, Director, Global Product Management, Microsoft Dynamics AX
Companies in growing numbers are realizing that it is not enough to simply apply lean principles to their own operations. The potential savings are too easily marginalized by partners in the supply chain who have not embraced lean principles. The same thinking can be applied to "internal" ERP system implementations that proceed without considering integration with other systems, user experience and simplicity. A product or service in isolation rarely solves 100% of the business problems it claims to, without being supplemented by services and auxiliary products that are typically provided by other companies.
eBECS, Habaņero and Kineticsware have formed a partnership based on this principle: Build an integrated, lean supply chain that is easy to implement, easy to maintain and presents data to decision makers "just in time".
Please join us to learn how Microsoft's integrated and adaptable supply chain solutions can help companies optimize supply chain processes, increase productivity, implement demand-pull strategies, and achieve better insight into operational performance.
