Digitization of the enterprise - benefits of integrating information systems
Solution integration, is currently one of the most popular trends in IT.
Today’s business IT systems often operate in a distributed manner, focusing on optimizing single elements.
This approach obviously still streamlines work, but it is done in a selective manner, often generating additional tasks in areas that did not require it before implementation.
An example of this is the introduction of a WMS system without integration with an ERP system, resulting in the need to enter orders into the WMS system manually, while their entry into the ERP system is automatic.
Thanks to inter-system integration, data transfer is automatic and the systems themselves can generate results without manual data feeds.
Why was the Digit.IO platform created when you can use the systems by integrating them ad hoc?
The decision to create an integrated solution, based on our two flagship products(a WMS system and a production management system), was dictated by the strong and growing interference of the production and logistics areas.
We wanted our solution to optimize all processes related to warehouse management and production, interlocking with each other.
The consistent interface of all applications is also important, as well as the fact that a comprehensive implementation of the platform simply brings the best results.
Of course, the services included in the Digit.IO package can be used separately, with plans to combine them into an integrated mechanism in the future.
Digit.IO platform elements:
WMS system (warehouse management system) is a solution that supports the operation of the warehouse in both the finished goods area and the production area.
The basic tasks of the WMS system include control over the processes of receiving, storage, picking and shipping. The course of these operations is supported by barcode technology, which gives the possibility of instant identification of goods, raw materials, storage locations, and also improves the labeling process.
Intelligent Scheduling on the Digit.IO platform, is an advanced tool for intelligent production scheduling, which is based on the digital twin (digital twin) mechanism .
The scheduling system analyzes multiple production scenarios each time, selecting the one that will lead to the best possible achievement of the set goals.
MES system is used for ongoing control of production processes on the basis of data flowing directly from the machines in a continuous mode.
Such control provides an opportunity to track the progress of production and helps identify any problems or discrepancies with the assumptions, which can have a not inconsiderable impact on the schedule.
Solution integration, is currently one of the most popular trends in IT. However, today's business IT systems often operate in a fragmented manner, focusing on optimizing individual components.
What are the effects of implementing Digit.IO?
The use of Digit.IO’s integrated solutions, or individual components of the platform, can bring a number of positive effects to the running of an enterprise.
Among the most important of these are:
- Increasing transparency and predictability,
- Control on the efficiency of resource use,
- Identifying production problems at an early stage,
- Traceability,
- Increasing the speed of order/order processing,
- Greater efficiency in multi-channel trading operations,
- Increasing the productivity of the workforce.
This is, of course, only an initial and general list of benefits.
