2. How OPM benefits your business?

3. Purpose of OPM In my previous post, Understanding OPM, we have briefly touched upon what Process Manufacturing is all about and how it could be synchronized with the day to day plant operations. In this blog entry we’ll look at how the entire manufacturing process (let’s call it manufacturing for now) is divided procedurally, strengths and usefulness of OPM solution suite and a sneak peek into OPM extensions for Endeca.

4. In terms of ERP, Manufacturing can be divided into 3 types: • Flow manufacturing • Discrete Manufacturing • Process Manufacturing

5. Flow Manufacturing is an innovative manufacturing method which synchronizes production with customer demand. Flow manufacturing production lines are designed to support the inter-mixed production of multiple products within a family on the same line at a constant rate • Discrete manufacturing on the other hand is a different business altogether. Discrete manufacturing is a manufacturing process in which distinct items/products(which you can easily count, see and touch) are built or manufactured in discrete batches on manufacturing floor. It creates physical products which go directly to business and consumers, and assemblies that are used by other manufacturers.

7. Oracle Process manufacturing, or batch production as it is popularly known, is a process of pressing/mixing/chemical processing/heating/boiling liquid/semi liquid/solid and powder or raw materials. Once you manufacture a product by using process manufacturing, the output cannot be brought to it's original basic form. Every individual product here is identical in terms of quality and composition. The production process, raw material quantities, packaging pattern etc. is predetermined. The machines combine and give out the product at the rate of multiple units per hour. Oracle Process Manufacturing as a module is designed exclusively for all the process and discrete manufacturing industries. Businesses belonging to these industry vertical either produce physically similar products in bulk or customize every individual product as per customer requirement.

9. Need Of OPM Process manufacturers face a distinct set of challenges. They need precise control over inventory and manufacturing processes. They need comprehensive visibility into existing inventory to scale batches up and down to meet changing demand. Exact formulations and recipes demand the strictest compliance with policies on sourcing and storage. And, because quality is more than just a customer satisfaction issue, they need the ability to collect accurate data at every step of the manufacturing process.

10. Blink's OPM Solution Blink's solution of Oracle Process Manufacturing (OPM) allows process manufacturers to collect data using radio-frequency (RF) devices to increase the availability of information on receiving, shipping, manufacturing and inventory activity as it happens. With handheld devices, users can collect data and perform OPM transactions directly on the shop floor, in the warehouse and on the loading dock. The information collected is immediately available to OPM applications throughout the enterprise to improve control and visibility of key processes as they occur.
