information Demand analysis of hardware industry

"Domestic competition internationalization, international competition and domestic" will be the characteristics of the development of China's hardware industry in recent years, China as the Global Hardware Manufacturing center status will be further stable. China has become the most dynamic economic region in the world, with the acceleration of China's integration into the global economic environment and the rapid rise of economic power. China's economic facilities are relatively perfect, industrial development is relatively mature and labor costs are low, has become the global Hardware Manufacturing center of comparative advantage, hardware manufacturing export-oriented development characteristics are obvious.

The strengthening of the status of China's hardware industry first in recent years, the export of hardware products all-round growth: The main hardware products export growth rate is higher than the output growth rate, more than the domestic market growth rate of sales; The main hardware electrical products full bloom, not only electric tools, hand tools, Building hardware Products These traditional export large-class products increase very high, and the previous export proportion of kitchen electricity products and sanitary products 2004 years of export growth is also very obvious. The huge market and centrality of gravity will further attract the transfer of metal manufacturing centers from multinational companies to China. At the same time, the international market for China's hardware product requirements will gradually develop and change, the quality of Chinese products, packaging, delivery time will have higher requirements, and even gradually extended to the production process and product development, the product and environmental protection, energy resources, human environment combined together. Market competition will be from the main price to the high-quality, highly technical content of the product.

The vigorous development of China's industry-the huge demand for hardware, and the deepening integration with the world economy after joining WTO, bring unprecedented market opportunity for hardware, fastener and spring industry. With the sustained development of the national economy, the automotive industry, engineering machinery, agricultural machinery, environmental protection machinery, machine tools, such as hardware, springs and basic parts of the demand for more and more, the performance of products, quality, reliability and variety specifications, requirements, and the international market, combined with the large increase in export volume, creating an unprecedented demand for hardware industry.

At present, the development of hardware industry is becoming more and more standardized, serialized, intelligent, flexible, precision and other characteristics. In the face of China's accession to the Global Manufacturing center after the transfer to China, metal machinery manufacturers at home and abroad to seize the situation in China's market, metal machinery manufacturing industry competition is urgent. The successful use of information to promote the hardware manufacturing enterprises to improve market response speed, increase production flexibility, strengthen cost control, so that enterprises calmly deal with a more competitive environment and improve the competitiveness of enterprises.

Common management problems in hardware industry(a) The breakdown of the hardware industry

Hardware industry can be divided into: tool hardware, building hardware, daily hardware, kitchen equipment and stainless steel products, smoke hood, locks, cooking utensils, zippers, stainless steel sliding hinge, process door flower, hinge series, throat hoop series, door and Window Accessories series, window profiles, doors and windows products, door control series, lighting, metal staircase, kitchen cabinets equipment, General parts, gauges, accessories hardware, curtain accessories, decorative hardware, locks series, etc.

(ii) Common management problems in hardware industry

After more than 20 years of reform and opening up efforts, China's hardware industry has made great achievements, the world's hardware industry has a positive impact, causing the world's attention to China's hardware industry. Although our enterprises have made great progress in the aspects of scale, product quality and innovation ability, there are many problems in maintaining sustainable development, and face great challenges.

Low quality, low price, has come to the end, if our products are still in this state into the international market, we will lose our market, our products will continue to stay in the foreign "stall goods", "flea Market" concept, enter the high-end market in the international market, the strong hardware industry relies on the quality of metal products, grade, technology, brand on the real step into the world stage.
Hardware industry enterprises to further improve the hardware industry, the concept of metal products, not to the hardware industry as a labor-intensive industry, it should also have a certain degree of technical content and advanced technology. At the same time, we also need high-quality staff, which is very important to our development, and further strengthen the quality of consciousness and quality management, our hardware industry products with their own than a considerable degree of improvement, but with the world-famous enterprises than the industry in the experience, management, capital, equipment, technology, innovation capacity is not enough, Quality management level, management system still needs to be perfected. We must be clear, quality is the basis of strong practice of enterprises, in the product quality, do fine on the basis of good product development and design, improve the overall level of the industry.
Hardware products in the brand, the brand is closely linked with quality, innovation, have good quality and innovative ability to do the guarantee. The development of the industry by the various industries together to create a good environment. In addition, the processing of the process line and equipment use is very flexible, in the product design, processing requirements and the number of orders to change more. With the economic globalization, business opportunities more and more, the production pressure of enterprises is also more and more large, such as: Personalized customer requirements, strict product quality and delivery time, cross-regional production and management activities of the orderly management and so on. At this time, enterprises must adopt a competitive information management system to strengthen production management level, strengthen the management of supply, production and sales, as well as with suppliers, distributors, customers and other resources, in order to compress product life cycle, improve labor productivity, reduce costs, to have a higher degree of customer satisfaction, to maintain the competitiveness of enterprises.

(iii) Hardware industry product production general process

Common operations:
Deformation machining (stretching/punching/drilling ...) ), grinding, polishing, electroplating, stamping, casting, machining, forging, forming, welding, heat treatment, polishing, etc.

Industry Application Process Description(a) The overall process of application plan production

In this hardware industry solution, we tailor this process to the production management of small and medium-sized enterprises in the hardware industry, in order to make this process clear and more universal, we use a relatively simple, general standard process.

(ii) Preparation of basic dataThe first step: basic information (and production-related) settings:

Product Information can be set the code of the goods, name, large categories, specifications, units, suppliers, quotations and other manufacturers of detailed information, can be in accordance with the Code of goods, names and other information to find out the relevant goods;
Department (workshop) plant in which departments, which work centers (workshops) set in this interface, set the workshop code and name, the upper department can, the left tree structure shows the relationship between the departments (workshop);
work center in this set up the daily working capacity of each machine (effective machine) and start and end range, for the analysis of production capacity as a basis and reasonable arrangements for working hours and personnel arrangements.
Warehouse Input Warehouse code, name, type, department and upper level location, contact person, deactivate date and other information 0E. Additional information on the product screen is as follows:

Step Two: Operation setting

Operation code Setting we shall make a setting for all the processes involved in the production of the factory; Our production is in accordance with the process of production, so we first set up the production of all involved in the process code, name and so on.
finished product process Planning Factory has the process of self-made products must be set up here, the production of a finished goods, to use the processing process, the screen to set each step of the situation, the processing time of each process and processing sequence, and the connection between the upper and lower processes must be set. If it is necessary to make a test, that is, a process needs to be inspected, you can select Y at the "Need inspection". Can master the quantity of nonconforming product of each process. If external processing is required, the manufacturer can be selected.

step three: BOM setup bill of materials (BOM)

Bom BOM is what we often say the product structure of the tree, it is the production plan to calculate the time and quantity of the basic core; If the BOM is not allowed, it produces suggestions and procurement advice is meaningless; In actual production many products (Masterbatch) are composed of many raw materials (sub-parts), The amount of raw materials (sub-parts) is also different, only after the material table has been set, to more accurately know the production of the required materials and dosage. Enter the parent part, the name of the sub-component, the process (that is, the operation) names, if the child is to be processed outside, you can choose the outside of the bracket.
From the 1th step to the third step although it has entered the production process, but only further production data set, starting from below is the beginning of the enterprise operation:

Fourth step: Production plan set up plan production

The production plan of the hardware industry is mostly calculated by the planned addition of orders, the plant's planned production is issued here; planning production alone in accordance with the sales department's market forecasts, the release of the Order of growth plans, also known as the inventory, mainly to ensure the normal operation of production, to prevent the sale of goods during the peak season phenomenon. Releasing the planned production order indicates that the demand for production has already been produced, and the quantity of goods ordered will also increase, requiring the enterprise to prepare the finished product.
Sales Order This is another very important reference for the production plan of the hardware industry, from where the factory orders, sales orders, also known as orders or orders. Refers to the sales department after confirmation, and the customer has signed a sales contract order, this order on the product we are on schedule delivery, responsible for will bear the legal responsibility. Sales orders are another source of demand for production requirements analysis and are more commonly used than planned production. In order to coordinate the balance between the plan and the sales order, there is a plan and a sales order hedging operation to achieve the goal of balancing the plan and the quantity ordered, here is not a detailed statement.

The fifth step: Production demand analysis production demand analysis

After getting the exact quantity of the finished product required (plan + subscribe), you can begin to do production demand analysis; According to the demand of the sales order or the product of the plan, the BOM formula table analyzes the demand and the shortage of the finished products and raw materials, puts forward the corresponding purchasing suggestions and production suggestions, and can produce purchase orders according to the actual situation. (or requisition or RFQ) and a processing order (or a work order). After transferring the document, double-click the "Document Number" item on the form to purchase the goods, and you can come to the purchase order.
Sixth step: Purchase orders, processing single purchase order production requirements analysis, if the raw materials or goods are insufficient, we will produce as shown in the purchase order. Then we can carry on the purchase of the corresponding goods, or you can directly enter the goods you need to purchase according to your needs; for homemade products, in the production demand analysis Select the "Self-product recommendations" page, after the transfer of documents, double-click "Document Number", you can come to the processing list;
processing Single processing order is also called dispatch work orders, is the first order to release production orders to formalities; After the production demand analysis, if the finished product is insufficient, the system will produce a processing order, is also the production of work orders, when the start of production must first under the production of work orders, according to this production work order for follow-up production/withdrawal action Finally, according to this processing sheet for the finished goods to pay the library. When the processing order is saved, the production of the finished product in the warehouse will increase, while the raw material of the body is increased in the warehouse. The operation of the item in the body of this screen. We can click on the processing order notice to produce the corresponding production picking orders, how many operations can produce the number of notices. In the lower part of the processing single, click on the "notice" button, you can transfer the sheet directly into a number of production picking orders.

The Seventh step: Production of picking materials to produce the order notice

With the production picking notice means that the production process has begun, if you want to remove the production of picking orders to the processing of the order must first delete the corresponding production picking notice; production picking orders can be directly generated from the processing order can also be called from the interface processing single information, our picking notice is a single process, If this process material is all in the process of turning over and do not need to pick material, the performance of the table body data is empty;
production picking each process has produced the corresponding production picking orders, you can enter the first step-the production of picking materials, the production of the finished product every process used by the raw material in batches to be processed by the process; This single can easily be sent to the goods of the goods to be estimated, Estimate the inventory of the goods and plan the amount of receipt; The voucher template can be used to generate vouchers to achieve the effect of seamless integration with the general ledger system.

The eighth step: Production Day report production daily Table

Completed the production of materials to enter the production, in the production daily can be recorded in the production of the completion of the situation, the number of outputs, not completed how much ... In the system only first produced the production of the picking notice to use production daily, through the production daily can be reported on the completion of each process day, in order to enable the workshop managers to obtain production information in a timely manner to ensure smooth production operation, through this interface can be produced by this process costs (manufacturing, labor), time (effective, loss) , quantity (output, unqualified) and other data;
Process Inspection if the production process is set up in the planning of the finished product this process is to be inspected, it is necessary to carry out the process of testing, the unqualified processing, the qualified transfer to produce daily.
Process Production transfer orders if the finished product process planning to set up this process is required to transfer, then this process is completed after this screen to be transferred, so that the next process can be started. In the production process, there is a production dynamic table can be dynamically and intuitively reflect the completion of each single process, the amount of inventory and demand day, and can be used to find the source of each document:

nineth Step: report as finished

After the completion of the production of finished goods, the final is the finished goods to pay the library; After all the work of the finished product is completed, the finished product can be paid for, and the quantity of the goods in the stock is increased to the available stock of the goods and then sold
