关于客户
Swiss Steel is a leading company in the steel manufacturing industry, known for its high-quality products and extensive global supply chain. The company has been proactive in addressing supply chain risks to ensure uninterrupted operations. With a focus on innovation and quality, Swiss Steel has implemented advanced risk management solutions to maintain its competitive edge in the market. The company operates on a global scale, dealing with numerous suppliers, subcontractors, and logistics hubs, making risk management a critical aspect of its operations.
挑战
Swiss Steel faced significant challenges in ensuring supply security due to various risks in the supply chain. Traditional methods of monitoring financial stability and country risk ratings were insufficient. The company needed a comprehensive approach to monitor all potential risks, including supplier, location, and country risks. Information procurement was cumbersome and time-intensive, leading to an unsatisfactory feeling concerning supply security.
解决方案
Swiss Steel implemented an automated, multidimensional risk management solution called 'Supply Risk Network' from riskmethods. This solution covers the entire supply chain, performing 'n-tier' modeling for all risk objects, including suppliers, subcontractors, locations, and countries. The system monitors various types of risks, such as compliance, quality, price fluctuations, natural disasters, strikes, and political risks. It generates information from numerous linked databases and searches over 300,000 online sources, offering a high degree of automation. The tool functions as both an early warning system and a means to assess latent risks, enabling Swiss Steel to take preventive actions and respond to crises in real-time.

Continuous Casting Machines in a Steel Factory
With a very broad range of applications, steel is an important material and has been developed into the most extensive alloy in the engineering world. Since delivering high quality is absolutely crucial for steel plants, ensuring maximum productivity and the best quality production are the keys to competitiveness in the steel industry. Additionally, working conditions in steel factories are not suitable for workers to stay in for long periods of time, so manufactures usually adopt various machines to complete the steel production processes. However, the precision of these machines is often overestimated and the lack of flexibility also makes supervisors unable to adjust operating procedures. A renowned steel factory in Asia planned to improve its Distributed Control System (DCS) of furnaces as well as addressing the problem of insufficient accuracy. However, most well-known international equipment suppliers can not provide a satisfactory solution and local maintenance because the project needed new technologies to more accurately control equipment operations. By implementing Advantech’s automated monitoring and control solution, steel factories can not only improve the manufacturing processes but can also allow users to add additional functions to the existing system so as to make sure the operation runs at high efficiency.
