Study Notes
ERP - Enterprise Resource Planning
- A tool for managing organizational information
- Organizes, collects, stores, and uses information for the benefit of an organization
- Success relies on organization and technology factors before, during, and after implementation
- Enterprise Systems include large application software for processes, information, data flows, reporting and data analytics in complex organizations
- A central feature of all ERP systems is a shared database supporting multiple organizational business functions
- POM (Production & Operations Management) software aims to optimize workflows (production or service delivery)
- Inventory Control Systems aim to minimize inventory costs (holding, ordering & shipping) and shortage costs
Computer-Integrated Manufacturing Systems
- Uses computers and automation to control the entire manufacturing/production process
- Aims to remove barriers between different organizational functions, promoting close cooperation throughout the process
- Improves production control and reduces costs
Transportation Management Systems
- Handle transportation planning (shipping, consolidation, load & trip planning, route planning, and carrier selection)
- Aims to reduce costs and improve customer service
Logistics Management
- A subset of TMS, coordinating inbound and outbound logistics
- Optimizes transport operations and coordinates with suppliers
Sales Management Systems
- Integrates supply chain technologies
- Synchronizes inbound/outbound material flows
- Manages distribution/transport networks
- Combines different sales procedures and tasks to provide a detailed overview of salespeople, products, location, and customers to help track sales & achieve goals quickly
Financial Planning & Budgeting Systems
- Helps organizations create and manage budgets
- Improves the ability to monitor performance
- Identifies deviations from planned activities, quickly
Human Resource Information Systems (HRIS)
- Centralized employee master data repository
- Supports human resource processes (forecasting needs, skill development)
Supply Chain Management Systems (SCM)
- Manages material acquisition, manufacturing, transportation, delivery, and recycling product disposal
- Effectively manages material, data, and payment flows among companies within the supply chain from suppliers to consumers
Digital Supply Chain Map
- Shows the complete life cycle of a product from raw material to consumer
- Includes warehouses, shipping, manufacturing, and retail distribution centers
Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC)
- A set of activities, methods, deliverables, and tools for creating and maintaining IT architecture/software.
- Like building, needs framework before design
- Stages: systems planning, systems analysis, design, implementation, testing, support, maintenance.
- Iterative, not linear
- Planning stage defines feasibility of the request.
Systems Design & Development
- Developers use design specifications to create user interfaces.
- Includes hardware/software acquisition, user-system documentation
- Implementation: conversion of old to new systems (plunge, parallel, pilot, phased for specific components).
- Testing verifies applications, interfaces, data transfers, under various conditions.
- Training for users for new systems.
- Support & maintenance: ensures consistent operations, audits assess capabilities.
- SDLC as Waterfall Model (planning, analysis, design, implementation, testing, support & maintenance).
Project, Program, and Portfolio Management (PPPM)
- Project: temporary effort for outputs.
- Program: group of related projects.
- Portfolio: collection of unrelated programs.
- Project management successfully guides projects from initiation to completion with established guidelines, procedures, and policies.
- Project success relies on engaged sponsors, organizational strategy alignment, and high project management technology (PMTQ)
Triple Project Constraint
- Scope: project goals
- Time: completion deadline
- Cost: budget
Project Initiation (SOW)
- A definitive statement of work, outlining the project plan but without options.
- Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) identifies all tasks and roles.
Gantt Chart
- Timeline to show project and schedule, tracking progress and tasks.
Program Management
- Manages related projects as a group (better resource utilization than individual projects).
- Provides support for project completion and quality.
Portfolio Management
- Centralized strategic management for proposed/ongoing/future projects.
Project Development vs. Product Development
- Projects have defined end-points.
- Products, if successful, remain ongoing.
- Products usually target multiple customers, while projects often aim for a single customer.
Digital Transformation
- Adapting organizations, processes, and technology to adapt to digital technologies and data analytics.
International Technology Considerations
- Addressing country-specific factors, including language, infrastructure (bandwidth/WIFI), culture, dates, payment systems, and shipping, for international software/services.
Customer Journey Mapping
- Understanding customer interactions with a product or service to identify pain points and opportunities.
- Key considerations include users, frustrations at process steps, how various factors affect cost and urgency, and the process steps that are long, painful.
Quantum Computing
- Based on quantum mechanics, for information processing.
- Unlike classical circuits (0 or 1), qubits represents 0 and 1 simultaneously (superposition, entanglement, interference)
- Has advantages in tasks like optimization, data analysis, or simulations while classical computing is better for everyday tasks.
Augmented Reality (AR) vs. Virtual Reality (VR)
- AR: images on real-world views (e.g., Pokemon Go).
- VR: immersive digital worlds (e.g. Facebook's Metaverse, Playstation virtual games).
- Extended Reality (XR): combining AR and VR for a more realistic experience.
3D Printing (Additive Manufacturing)
- Layer-by-layer construction, using computer-aided design models.
- Complex, lightweight products.
- Increasing demand for manufacturing.
Gamification
- Strategic approach to motivate and strengthen engagement with customers, employees.
- Leveraging game-like principles (challenges, progression, rewards) for increased motivation and productivity.
Ethics
- Values driving ethical decisions in a company.
- Ethical behavior aligning with societal values.
- Organizations (or individuals) have a set of principles and rules to guide their decisions.
- A company's code of ethics shows how it operates in a transparent and responsible manner.
Risk and Compliance
- Crowd sourcing involves obtaining ideas, content, or services from various people.
- Encourages diverse viewpoints and problem-solving.
Outsourcing
- Outsourcing involves using external providers for software development, infrastructure, and services (offshoring, cloud services).
- Outsource life cycle includes assessment, preparation, contract negotiation, transition, monitoring (managing SLAs).
Infrastructure Strategy
- Assess current capacity to handle future digital initiatives and strategic plans
