关于客户
Briggs & Stratton 是世界上最大的户外动力设备风冷汽油发动机生产商。该公司为世界各地的原始设备制造商 (OEM) 设计、制造、销售和维修这些发动机。Briggs & Stratton 发动机被应用于割草机、赛车、农用设备、发电机、高压清洗机、泵和焊机等各种产品，以及许多其他工业和商业应用。Briggs & Stratton 的替换零件部门通过两个工厂向世界各地运送售后零件和服务零件：一个 300,000 平方英尺的配送中心 (DC) 和一个 225,000 平方英尺的室外工厂。它处理 70,000 到 75,000 个 SKU，代表 4000 万到 4500 万美元的库存，包括收购品牌的零件，例如 Generac（现为 Briggs & Stratton Home Power）和 Simplicity（现为 Briggs & Stratton Yard Power）。这两个工厂都拥有配送和包装业务，每年运送约 2600 万件。
挑战
Briggs & Stratton 是世界上最大的户外动力设备用风冷汽油发动机生产商，其仓库劳动力管理方面面临挑战。该公司的替换零件部门从两个设施向世界各地运送售后市场和服务零件。它处理 70,000 到 75,000 个 SKU，代表着 4000 万到 4500 万美元的库存。2003 年之前，Menomonee Falls 配送中心 (MFDC) 没有标准化的员工工作方式或衡量生产力的方式。MFDC 管理团队认为，如果他们标准化工作方法、设定目标和衡量结果，他们可以提高生产力。为了帮助研究这一假设，威斯康星大学供应链联盟进行了一项研究，结果表明，如果 MFDC 部署劳动力管理技术，则投资回报机会巨大。
解决方案
Briggs & Stratton 首先在其传统配送业务中实施了 JDA 仓库劳动力管理。该公司在实际上线日期前一个月以“监控模式”启动了该系统，以了解现有绩效。与 JDA 合作过的大多数公司一样，Briggs & Stratton 发现其运营效率仅为标准的 67%。然而，在上线后的一个月内，该公司能够将挑选、包装和发货员工数量减少约 18%，同时保持吞吐量。不久之后，绩效提高到标准的 100% 到 110%。在完成 DC 实施后，Briggs & Stratton 将重点转向其包装业务。这些业务占据了工厂的一半，约 95% 的零件都是配套的，每年约有 2600 万件。轻型制造环境需要采用不同的劳动力管理方法。必须包括从接收和入库到配套操作再到转移到 DC 的整个工作流程。衡量配套流程的绩效需要结合传统分销业务中不存在的机器计时。JDA 解决方案的灵活性使实施变得简单直接。

Predictive Maintenance for Industrial Chillers
For global leaders in the industrial chiller manufacturing, reliability of the entire production process is of the utmost importance. Chillers are refrigeration systems that produce ice water to provide cooling for a process or industrial application. One of those leaders sought a way to respond to asset performance issues, even before they occur. The intelligence to guarantee maximum reliability of cooling devices is embedded (pre-alarming). A pre-alarming phase means that the cooling device still works, but symptoms may appear, telling manufacturers that a failure is likely to occur in the near future. Chillers who are not internet connected at that moment, provide little insight in this pre-alarming phase.
