processesLesson 6
Chapter 8 + slides
What are operations?Operations include the processes that transform inputs into final output
What is a process?
All activities are part of processesThe process is a value-added processingAny process involving people and / or resourcesEvery process has inputs and outputs (results)Each process requires controls to ensure stabilityNeed to measure inputs, process activities, output
Process include all phases that transform inputs into final output
Information System Computer System
The term information system refers to the set of hardware, software and technologies that constitute
only a part of the real information system.
It 'good to clear then that the term information system means that
in regard to information management in the enterprise, or how it is
processed and communicated the information, however, the term computer is done
reference to everything related to the devices that will be used.
information system identifies an organized structure,
made up of people, procedures, computer equipment, which is
aimed to collect, select, evaluate and disseminate data and information to be used as
decision support.

Businesses began to use for the first time the technologies layout and grew up with computers and the Internet later in the 50s and 60s.
The introduction of computers in business necessitated the introduction of new systems that combine information technology with manufacturing processes. These systems, nowadays, play a key role in manufacturing industries where they are known by the name of MRP stands for Material Requirements Planning.
After nearly two decades, these systems are no longer able to meet all the needs of companies of the time, evolved into MRP II (Manufacturing Resource Planning).
Then due to the competitive pressure the companies found themselves in different position of having to revise their business strategies and redesign their business processes. Particular emphasis in recent times, have had, in fact, the draft of these business process reengineering (BPR - Business Process Reengineering), which aim to radically rethink how to operate in order to achieve significant improvements.
This activity leads to remove the existing information systems, both in terms of technology, that the realignment of business objectives.
The new systems are designed to adequately support the core processes.
The ERP Enterprise Resource Planning
have evolved over a period that has lasted forty years, introducing innovations both in the
business, which ininformation technology as a fundamental means
of this evolution. The biggest goal is reached that it has
implemented integration and synchronization of all the individual functions necessary to
management company.
ERP system
The idea of sharing the real benefit of such systems and that more than any other allows the integration.
The connectivity of these systems is provided by a set of software sub-system data sharing, once the data is stored, can be used by any division.
This organization provides immediate and visible benefits. At first, simplistic analysis would seem that the process information generated by an event of starting branches in different activities according to a sort of hierarchy: starting, for example, from a production order, it triggers a sequence of operations involving other departments as "child nodes" of the first event.
In fact, one can not speak of a tree, but of a network structure.The fundamental difference lies in the mode of interaction between
the various departments: each generates data that are below the node, the node brother and also the parent node, creating connections with all the equipment involved in the ongoing process and this is the true implementation of the concept integration.
