Ming Li group

Minley steel was founded in Hong Kong in 1940 and has a history of more than 80 years. In 1980, we set up a mold factory to manufacture high-precision templates and molds. In 1995, we set up a factory in Dongguan. We set up Dongguan Mingli steel mold Products Co., Ltd. to sell steel products, molds and mold accessories. In 1997, the company expanded its business scope to produce special machine tools for mold industry, and in 2001, it independently provided a series of production machine tools for mold industry for a global industrial machinery (Dongguan) Co., Ltd. with its brand: five axis drilling and milling composite machine, horizontal CNC milling machine, mold research and matching machine (mould closing machine), large gantry CNC milling machine and patented horizontal multi-function design with drilling and milling function Able to drill deep holes. Stepping into a new stage: management is the key and informatization is the strong backing of management

With the diversification of market development at any time, the management of enterprises is also faced with the urgent need to strengthen. In the face of the strict requirements of data in foreign markets, Mingli steel considers that management enterprises must rely on information-based tools from its own point of view. No matter they are responsible for internal or customer products, some data needed for production must be kept improving, and the quality of products must be even better Based on the data.

In order to achieve better service and higher revenue goals faster, Mingli has stepped into a new stage of enterprise development. General manager fan of Mingli Steel said: "we should make full use of the rich professional experience of Fangtian ERP, learn from the advanced management methods of its successful cases, optimize our operation process and mode, and achieve the goal of successfully implementing ERP."

Strengthen the enterprise's constitution and improve its competitiveness

Master, if you want to win the market, you can only rely on "cultivating your internal skills and strengthening yourself". "In the new stage of transformation, Mingli steel urgently needs a set of perfect information management system to realize the production of high-quality molds and real-time cost monitoring, so as to enhance the competitiveness of enterprises and strengthen the constitution of enterprise development."

In view of the company's management needs and the trend of Internet +, after a series of understanding and comparison of the product quality and service of each enterprise, Mingli steel chose Fangtian ERP to solve their current problems. Together with Fangtian B9 enterprise management software, an information system with ERP system as the core has been built in the internal management. We hope to help Mingli push the management to a new stage with the help of Fangtian's information platform and management concept.

From conflict to handy

In minley group, the first demand to be met is various quotation forms in different formats. For the mold industry, there are many quotation details. At the same time, there are many strange formats for different customers. At the same time, there are some special calculation formulas to be handled in different series of mold quotations. In the early stage of implementation, the quotation personnel have some conflicts with this During the break in process, the quotation personnel began to get familiar with the system process. When the various automatic report formats presented in front of the quotation personnel, the quotation department was very satisfied. At the same time, it also put forward some original opinions during the use of the quotation module of Founder software, and combed with other systems in the use process, making the system from quotation to later Continuous production and shipment are closely related. This is also the key to the closed-loop process in the system.

Progress management is a point that all factories pay close attention to. Whether it's customer requirements or internal production management needs, it's necessary to know the accurate progress of internal production in time. So the traditional way in the factory is to track through telephone communication, manual white board record, production workshop report, etc., which wastes a lot of time. Sometimes the progress is not necessarily accurate These are estimates of progress, without any actual data.

In this case, Mingli steel introduced Fangtian ERP system, which provides a set of perfect Kanban system for progress tracking and query. Through digital information Kanban, we can know the progress of each set of mold and each process of each part in time, whether the delay can be reflected in time, which greatly liberates the work of workshop statistician and saves progress communication A lot of time, but also improve the accuracy of progress data.

Information reshape management, let digital speak

Before using ERP system, statistics of capacity load and production hour data from planning to workshop production are registered manually. These registered data are collected and processed by clerks. In addition to wasting time, there are some problems in the authenticity and validity of data. Therefore, in this case, the leadership of minley group put forward the need to pass Information software to achieve data management, let the number speak. In this process, the implementation team of Fangtian software put forward a complete set of perfect schemes based on years of implementation experience, including unified planning and formulation from BOM coding rules, workshop equipment and personnel coding, but it was not so smooth at the beginning of the subsequent workshop implementation process. In most engineering front-line workers' concepts, in addition to letting them complete their daily needs In addition to the completed tasks, many other tasks may increase their workload, but in fact, they ignore an essential problem. Only their production data is real-time and accurate can better reflect everyone's value. At the same time, the authenticity of these data can also achieve employee performance management through data. After the acceptance of this concept, the workshop staff began to actively cooperate, and this mode also greatly improved the enthusiasm of the staff.

Mingli steel started the ERP project in January 2016. After more than one year of project launching, the implementation has been very successful and the effect is remarkable. From the original information island between departments to the current situation of information transparency, openness and timeliness. The original messy material coding rules have been unified, and the standard of "one thing, one code" has been realized, and the standard parts and non-standard parts have been defined. It improves the control ability of materials, realizes real-time in and out monitoring and query tracking according to the unique coding warehouse system of materials, and greatly improves the turnover and in and out warehouse liquidity of materials. The progress of the mold embryo is realized by the progress electronic Kanban, which enables the project personnel and workshop production personnel to know the material purchase progress and the production progress of the previous and subsequent processes through the real-time refresh progress of the electronic kanban. Quality inspection: provide multiple inspection templates, such as incoming inspection, outsourcing inspection, and finished goods warehousing inspection, to strictly control the quality. Production workshop: through the square MES system, the production workshop realizes the way of scanning code and reporting work. At the same time, the working hours of each part can be counted in real time, which also realizes the cost statistics of finance, improves the enthusiasm of employees and enables employees to participate in performance management.

Set foot on the new course of enterprise informatization development

So far, Mingli group's Fangtian ERP system has used 35 functional modules, 93 custom reports, completed 13 secondary development programs, generated more than 30000 BOM information, and issued more than 2000 ERP related work bulletins, more than 110000 product number information, and more than 100000 various business documents on the OA system. At present, Mingli group has 200 users of Fangtian ERP, accounting for more than 60% of the total number of people in the plant, which is particularly valuable for an old factory with a history of half a century. Then, Mingli group has successively established the integrated management platform of multi system single sign on and unified user management, and realized the integration of product data management (PDM) and ERP system, PDM and distributed numerical control (DNC) system, so as to build the integrated platform of management information, R & D information and manufacturing information, and truly realize the comprehensive utilization of enterprise resources.

Now, the production of all documents and reports of Mingli is provided by Fangtian ERP system, which effectively improves work efficiency. Operators can handle more work in the same time, so that they can allocate more energy to control key procurement and production progress. Moreover, through the powerful data collection and analysis function of ERP system, many information needed in management becomes readily available. The supervisor can easily obtain meaningful management data from the original and scattered data, so that the senior management can timely and accurately grasp the current situation and trend of the enterprise and make necessary decisions. In this regard, the leadership of minley group has deep feelings, they said: "before, our business data was often multi oral statistics, which could not be delivered to the leadership in ten and a half days, which was not conducive to rapid decision-making. After ERP goes online, the factory leaders can see the latest business data at any time, such as how many orders are placed at present? Who is the best ordering customer? Who is the most ordering customer and other information can be easily retrieved, and it is no longer necessary to report the data, which greatly facilitates the timely decision-making of the leadership. "

In addition, strict ERP process management standardizes the business processes of purchasing, sales, production and finance of Mingli group, blocks management loopholes and reduces management risks. After the reorganization of ERP, the business process is highly integrated with purchase, sales, inventory and finance, realizing the synchronous processing of the transaction data of Mingli purchase management system, inventory management system and production system, overcoming the data errors caused by manual repeated entry and artificial collection, and achieving the effect of one single multi-purpose and data sharing. The data shows that after the official operation of Fangtian ERP system, the company's inventory settlement has been shortened from the original 10 days to 7 days, the inventory accuracy rate has reached 96%, the time difference between the inventory in and out documents has been controlled within 1 day, and the negative inventory quantity is 0. At the same time, the order delivery tracking accuracy of minley group increased to 92%, and the purchase and purchase tracking accuracy reached 94%. It can be said that now minley group has successfully extended the management touch to every order, every work order, every product, every process, every machine tool and every personnel, from order release, product processing and warehousing to product sales, all of which are operated in ERP system, thus avoiding the confusion of management and laying a solid foundation for the digital transformation of minley group, an old enterprise 。
