Reference an article on the Internet to learn how to do the business blueprint.
The SAP implementation methodology covers five steps, including project preparation and blueprint.Design, System implementation, final preparation, launch and support. Based on the actual experience of multiple projects, we will first discuss how to do the "Current Situation Investigation and Demand Analysis" in the blueprint design phase.
1,Status quo survey and Requirement Analysis preparation:
1) understand the industry and division of labor of customers: different industries have many characteristics and terminology, such as semiconductor enterprises with frontend (design, wafer manufacturing) and backtrack (encapsulation,Test. Generally, processing and manufacturing are divided into OEM or self-made products. For self-made enterprises, the inventory level, production capacity utilization, operating costs and profit margins are more important. However, for OEM Enterprises, in addition to considering costs and profits, it is more important to meet the diversified requirements of customers for products or services. From the SAP project perspective, the implementation of OEM Enterprises is more challenging.
2) survey questionnaire and outline preparation:
(1) The design of the survey questionnaire should be revised based on industry and industrial characteristics, rather than having only one general questionnaire at a time. Knowing that the problem does not exist in such enterprises, it is still a waste of time and may cause customers to doubt or dislike the ability of consultants.
(2) The problem preparation should cover the specific operation methods from the company's future product market positioning to each process, such as the market positioning and share planning of various business sections of the company in the future, because different business types have different proportions in the future development of the company, SAP should first meet the system application of the main business in the solution design, and then consider the implementation of non-core business.
(3) design the questionnaire according to the business process rather than by the function module, because SAP designs the questionnaire by process rather than by function.
3) survey time and staffing:
(1) The investigators should be conducted at different levels, covering at least the company's top and middle layers.ManagementUsers, key post users, and end users. In order to ensure the effectiveness of the survey, we should arrange sessions at different levels so that participants can talk about their ideas.
(2) Where resources and time permits, the investigation should be carried out in a serial manner. All module consultants can participate in the investigation together to ensure that all the situations can be grasped in the investigation and analysis phase. The survey outline and time location arrangement are sent to the user in advance and the preparation time is reserved.
(3) the accumulation of personal experience of consultants is also critical to the effectiveness of research. The same problem can be discussed from different angles or methods and different results or conclusions will be obtained. Therefore, before the investigation, we should try our best to communicate and communicate internally, fill in gaps between each other, and fight for backup.
2,Current Situation Investigation and Demand Analysis:
1) determine the main clues of the survey based on the company's characteristics. The entire process from procurement to production to sales to financial settlement is analyzed based on the main line, for example, in the form of orders, product processing characteristics, or business models. In this way, the key points will not be missed, and the entire process can be sorted out.
2) the survey and analysis process should be recorded with appropriate tools or documents. It is best to achieve integration. Every consultant communicates with the user and updates the version accordingly, keeping the version unique. This ensures that the record is clear and complete, and the department or user feedback can promptly discover and communicate with each other when there are different descriptions of the same problem.
3) during the investigation and analysis process, do not conduct too much discussion and analysis on possible future system solutions. How to deal with it in the future must be based on comprehensive analysis, and various modules have been discussed. In addition, in the current situation investigation and analysis process, the system communicates with the user, which makes it easy for the user to fear, conflict, or exceed expectations in case of information asymmetry, which is not conducive to project development.
3,Summary of survey and analysis results:
1) the project owner should pay attention to the key issues reported during collection, tracking, investigation, and analysis. Ensure that no omissions are left blank and can be fully considered during design.
2) the survey and analysis results should be sent to users (company executives, middle-level management, key users, etc.) for formal confirmation. It is not only a validation process, but more importantly, it can be used to supplement the missing information.
3) The content of each survey and analysis result record is updated and should be organized togetherLearningAnd reviews to ensure that all internal consultants are clear and clear.
Start business blueprint design when all consultants agree on the survey results.
As we are a group enterprise, business research is a very complex project, and many factories have different production methods.
For example:
1. Similar to a company like steel structures, each project is different. In the end, BOM cannot be imported into ERP, or how can we establish BOM to balance manpower and data?
2. For custom products and standard products, they are made in different ways.
Although different companies have different production styles, the general process can be determined.
No matter what you do in the future, you should first draw out the company's business processes, and you will not be able to leave them alone. What should you do in the future depends on the consultant's work. We look forward to the work that the consultant will hand over to us.
