International TIPQA™ Implementation Adam Kucharski
Agenda • Who are We • Deployments • Challenges • Business Units • Process Flows • Language • Export Laws • Governance • Conclusion
Background Information • Founded in 1951 by Bill Moog • Headquarters: East Aurora, NY • Over 300 Acre Facility • Global Company • Over 10,000 employees worldwide • $2 Billion + in Revenue • Precision Control Systems Solutions and Component Provider
World Leader in High Performance Actuation • Flight Controls for Aircraft - Military & Commercial • Satellites & Launchers, Missiles & Missile Defense, Ships & Armored Vehicles • Industrial Automation and Medical Devices
Deployments • Moog Aircraft Group • Multiple sites in United States • Baguio Philippines • Tewksbury England • Wolverhampton England • Bangalore India • Moog International • Ireland • Germany • Nieuw-Vennep (Netherlands)
Challenges – Business Units • Master Business Unit (MBU) • MBU centralizes • Parameters • Codes • Criteria • Used in Local Business Units (LBU) • Provides standards • Validation • Drop down lists • Find forms • Inspection Control Parameters MBU supports “one-company” approach
Module Types • LBU level process flow definitions • NC/CA types • Approval groups • Code relationships
Challenges – Business Units • Part Number Management at the MBU Level • Inspection Plans • Control Sampling • First Article • Skip Lot Inspection
Challenges – Business Units • Supplier Management • Parent/Child relationships • Relate same supplier with different Supplier #’s • Relate different supplier locations under master supplier number • Rating options • Ratings across the enterprise • Ratings at the local level • Master Certification
Challenges – Language Support • Language • Different countries speak and use different languages • Language support is expanded in 7.x, but still somewhat limited • Modifying screen titles • German uses longer words affecting page layouts • Kanji requires special character set (available in 7.x) • Standardizing on common language • Common Reports
Challenges – Export Laws • Export Laws • One country’s public domain is another country’s export restricted • Location of server • Country codes and proprietary settings provide a mechanism • Large effort to get everything configured • Maintenance is critical • Odd behavior when things aren’t correct. • A user can create an NC, but cannot see it afterwards to modify if proprietary flag is set wrong for a part
Governance • Module Focal Points coordinate all module changes across the enterprise • Local Module Leaders (SME) to deal with module issues • LBU Process Flows
Conclusion MBU LBU Configured regionally based on similar usage and export laws • Environment for standardization – One Moog– • Codes, Parameters, Criteria • Parts • Suppliers English is standard language for screens and text comments
