The work-plan is aggressive covering fourteen weeks we are on schedule for 18 August 2000 We are here
sTs has committed the following resources to this project • Full Time : • Engagement Manager & IT Strategist - Tony Sullivan • Process Analyst - Kumar Bhatt • IT Architect - Stephen Perun • Part Time: • IT Strategy: Carl Straub • IT Assessment: MotorCo IT Support
We are working under the following hypothesis • MotorCo intends to significantly increase it's North American production. The current information technology base will not allow increase in product mix, multiple plants or three shift operations • Systems are old and difficult to change • Batch operation precludes real time information • Knowledge of some systems is "retiring"
The last two weeks was spent ...... • We collected requirements from all the meetings and held a special meeting for your direct reports or representatives to gather their requirements (5/25): • completing the current process understanding • completing the current IT architecture map • developing business requirements for the expanded • production scope
Last week we met with four major areas of production control to understand the current process • Tuesday, 5/23 2:30-5:00 Production Planning • Takeshi (Todd) • Steve • Wednesday, 5/24 7:30-11:30 Production Scheduling • Bill • Roy D • Bruce • Mike • Wednesday, 5/24 1:00-5:00 Inventory Control • Art • Pete • Tommy • Bob • Terry • Thursday, 5/25 7:30-11:30 Crossdock • Art • Pete • Bob • Beth L • Melody • Elmer H • Greg J
Problem: We do not have a complete understanding of MotorCo's current Business Objectives to completely align a new IT Strategy • To properly align IT plans a complete understanding of Business Objectives is required........ • Example: Increase production throughput • Optimizing throughput tends to group like units (Build to Plan) • e-business looks at order quantities of one.
