Handbags and luggages belong to the typical fashion industry consumer products, its life cycle is shortened, by the style, color, the material of different derived from a wide range of products; bags and bags manufacturers to the ever-changing customer demand, its R & D work has become increasingly important, the first time to complete the customer sample demand often in competition with competitors to come out on top; in order to meet customer quality and special requirements under the conditions of lower material The goal of the R&D department is to achieve lower material cost and skilled production process while meeting the quality and special requirements of customers. However, the R&D department is often confronted with huge product history data, individualized special requirements of customers, complicated information at hand that cannot help them make practical product design quickly, and the large amount of information collation work hinders their dedicated research on products.
Handbags and bags product structure (BOM) design is complex, complex processing technology; production mode is often based on single production, inventory-oriented production as a supplement, which involves order scheduling complex, frequent adjustment of procurement plans resulting in unstable plans, manufacturing process is complex process is not conducive to the standardization of product production.
Microsoft Dynamics AX is a set of large enterprise management software to support multi-dimensional organization, multi-factory, group management, the product provides can realize a full range of enterprise marketing management, sales (internal \ external sales and coexistence), material supply, planning and production, financial management business.
Microsoft Dynamics AX solutions for luggage manufacturing industry can easily integrate users' pattern orders and sample orders into the system for effective pattern tracking and order management. In the bag and luggage solution, SKETCH can record material information, color information, designer information, etc. This information can effectively guide the production line staff to receive the correct materials to maximize the reduction of various work errors caused by information asymmetry.
The sample BOM of each style is generated directly through the layout system, and after the sample is confirmed, it is converted into standard engineering BOM with integrated management of R&D and sound field dimension. The cost management of sample manufacturing will enable decision makers to have a clearer understanding of product costs and accurately position themselves in the competition and gain a competitive advantage.
In the area of planning and production management, Microsoft Dynamics AX provides the following capacities to help bag and luggage manufacturers reduce the complexity of the planning and production process and improve planning accuracy and production achievement:
Consolidation Management
In the bag and luggage industry, it is common to collect the same models together, and it takes a long time to manually calculate the quantity of materials to be collected; the consolidation function in Microsoft Dynamics AX can consolidate materials in the same workshop and warehouse according to several work orders specified by users, which simplifies the work of collecting materials and improves the efficiency.
Planning and Execution Tracking Capability
Microsoft Dynamics AX can solve different production modes very well. In the mixed production mode of handbag industry, where finished products are produced according to orders and some semi-finished products are produced according to stock, production planners can easily plan production and material requirements based on orders, implement plan adjustments, and track the execution of production and purchase orders; in case of occasional In case of occasional order insertion or temporary plan adjustment, the planner can lock and rearrange the production capacity as needed through the production management module, and dynamically simulate the capacity plan under various circumstances to achieve the best capacity play.
