Is your IT system geared to support the dynamics and complexities of the High Tech Value Chain?
High Tech manufacturing enterprises operate in a very competitive environment with a complex and long value chain. Value Chain Planning is the key differentiator and thrust area for these enterprises, as this lends them to better demand capture and fulfillment, better operational and financial efficiency. IT systems play a crucial role in enabling them to remain competitive. These IT systems acquired/built over a period of time, inevitably result in a complex integration landscape involving plethora of heterogeneous B2B (Business to Business), B2C (Business to Customer) and A2A (Application to Application) transactions. Even the reporting for running operations and management decision making is premised on multiple sources of truth.
Some of these IT systems would probably be living a leased life with their EOL being reached. These systems are not able to react fast enough to Business imperatives like transaction growth, expansion in new geographies & new lines of business, changing business models, new requirements from trading partners and rapid new product innovations etc. Also decision making suffers due to latency and inaccuracy in reporting data. Thus, it's important that the IT backbone of the organization becomes more robust, scalable and flexible so as to be able to play an important part in organization's growth, rather than being an impediment. Here the role of simplification and standardization in IT system becomes vital for enterprises.
