NetSuite Manufacturing
当雁馅决定采用一个系统来运行尽可能多的方面的操作, they engaged with RSM to implement NetSuite.

By design, 定制化是科罗拉多州饮料包装公司Wild Goose填料业务的核心. 这使得该公司能够制造灌装机,供精酿饮料生产商用来装瓶和装罐,从啤酒、康普茶到硬苏打水和专门的咖啡饮料.

但几年前,野鹅高度可定制的罐装和装瓶机器也使运营变得困难, 当时公司还没有一个精简的库存跟踪系统, sales orders, work orders and more.

“It was really tricky to figure out, 我们如何管理这些订单,而不需要无限数量的零件订单和组合?Wild Goose填料公司的运营总监乔丹·爱德华兹(约旦 Edwards)说. “如果你想知道架子上有多少零件,你就去数数架子上的零件. 对于一家大型国际企业来说,必须手动检查,这听起来很疯狂.”

领导团队在2018年决定,企业需要采用一个可以运行尽可能多的运营方面的系统, from customer relationship management to inventory visibility. Wild Goose决定与rsm合作(该公司已经在其他项目上与rsm合作)为他们的业务实施NetSuite.

结果

The NetSuite implementation enabled a massive transformation for Wild Goose; the company went from what Edwards refers to as the “dark days” before having a system in place to being able to anticipate inventory issues before they arise and harness company data in creative, intelligent ways for a range of applications, including:

Customizing machine work orders

Capturing accurate assembly costs

使幻影组件简化特定机器选项的选择

production calendar

更精确的规划生产常用部件

对于一个系统遍布全球的公司来说,这种灵活性和更高的效率非常重要.

“We’re in so many countries with partners all over the world, 我不知道如果没有这样一个系统,我们是否能够对我们的产品线进行沟通和可见性——事实上,在中国的某个人下了一个服务订单,它就会立即在我们的系统中出现,让下一个人去拿,” Edwards says.

Since the NetSuite implementation in 2018, 野鹅馅料发展迅速,其国际客户数量增加了一倍多.

A personal touch and an industry lens

爱德华兹说,不仅仅是NetSuite改变了Wild Goose的游戏规则. Just as vital was the way RSM’s team showed up in person, 听取公司的需求,并与业务部门合作实施解决方案.

“I think it was really important that we had boots on the ground, people walking the factory floors, sitting down next to us at a laptop and walking us through it,” he says. “I feel like there was a personal touch. Rather than saying, “好吧, most companies do this,“RSM的团队愿意倾听并理解我们所做的事情的独特之处,并vwin娱乐场官方解决方案."

RSM’s lead team member on the project, Les Jankiewicz, also came with a background in the manufacturing industry, 爱德华兹说,这种观点对实施的成功至关重要. Jankiewicz的经验使他能够迅速地引导Wild Goose如何最大限度地利用NetSuite.

“不同的小啤酒厂对瓶子和罐子的大小有不同的要求, 所以这些机器有很多不同的功能,” Jankiewicz says. “They were worried they were going to run out of part numbers. 因此,我们设置了一些方法,让他们可以使用NetSuite中的功能和选项来帮助他们的工程师为他们报价.”

而不是必须创建无限数量的迭代来准备任何可能的客户请求, Wild Goose现在可以根据需要通过NetSuite访问这些选项,而无需在配置器上进行重大投资.

A future of possibilities

在与RSM的团队合作实施和使用NetSuite的头几年之后, 野鹅正在全面考虑该公司还能如何使用它. The system’s scalability allows for a lot of possibilities, 因此,大雁以更灵活的方式接近未来, 适应能力强,能够满足专业领域的需求.

爱德华兹说:“我们可以看看这个系统如何随着我们的业务增长。. “里面有很多我们可以利用的功能.”
