Engage to Empower: A QAD Strategy for Reducing Enterprise CostsQAD EAM (Enterprise Asset Management) Steve Pitsos, Director, EAM Product Management
Manufacturing Company’s Challenges Companies are driven to find ways to: Increase production output Improve product quality Reduce cost Plant Operations is responsible for a company’s most critical assets, its production equipment. Reliable equipment will: Maximize production performance Minimize scrap / rework Lower cost Costs 4X more to repair broken equipment than to maintain it
How QAD EAM Supports Manufacturing QAD EAM is responsible for the management of the manufacturing assets including; The design, construction and commissioning Operations and maintenance (preventive and repairs) Capital replacement / upgrade of equipment • Maximum Utilization at Lowest Cost • Uptime Analysis / Breakdowns • Failure Analysis / Production Impact • Cost Analysis / Capital Forecasting Asset Lifecycle Management Goal of Asset Lifecycle Management
Extending the Value of Your QAD Investment Most companies simply ‘check-the-box’ if they have a CMMS/EAM solution in-house The tool satisfies a compliance requirement Sarbanes-Oxley (Finance & Accounting Controls) CFR 21 Part 11 (Life Sciences) TS (Automotive) Customer Tooling (demonstrated care of their assets through audits) ISO (customer driven PM program) OSHA (Risk Management)
Extending the Value of Your QAD Investment Does your company have an EAM strategy? If production asset reliability and availability is vital to your business, you need an asset care strategy! 350,000 manufacturing facilities in the US MRO spend in the United States is nearly $150B 40% of this is reactive and unplanned (if a company is reactive, so will your spend be) If sustainability is vital and important to your business, you need an asset care strategy! Commercial energy cost is nearly $400B 38% Manufacturing / 32% Transportation / 30% Buildings The success of an asset-intensive company, and ultimately the bottom line, is dependent on the effectiveness of it’s maintenance strategy. KnowledgeStorm – Sept 2007
Extending the Value of Your QAD Investment Leading companies are implementing EAM strategies for: Implementing Production Asset Reliability as a competitive advantage Comprehensive alignment and management of MRO inventories across the enterprise Reduction in MRO spending across the enterprise to improve cash flow and bottom line performance Introduction of sustainability into the manufacturing process to: drive energy costs down reduce carbon emissions replace hazardous production chemicals with ‘green’ chemicals It’s an Attitude: “Asset Care” versus “Asset Repair”
How We Do It Plant Operations How do you do it now?
Business Challenges The current economic downturn requires asset intensive industries to get the maximum value out of the company’s existing assets. Aberdeen Group, November 2008 8
Business Challenges Project Controls (Accounting) No visibility to what projects will actually costs verses budget Reports are maintained through spreadsheets, which are labor intensive, time-consuming, out-of-date and inaccurate Inability to control spending Plant Maintenance 90% of maintenance activities are fixing broken equipment Repair maintenance cost 4X more than planned maintenance Only 50% Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) MRO 30% of MRO inventory is obsolete 25% of purchases are incorrect or unnecessary Expensive spare parts cannot be shared between plants
QAD Solution - EAM • Project Controls (Accounting) • Budget spending control • Project work breakdown structure • Tracks internal and external expenditures • Production Assets and Facility Maintenance • Schedules preventive and predictive maintenance • Tracks internal and external costs associated with repairs • Integrates production into the maintenance process • MRO • Electronic requisitions workflow tied to department budget • Automatic stock replenishment based on stocking levels and demand • Track slow moving and obsolete inventory
