Platform for Efficiency: Boeing Defense, Space & Security integrates supply chain processes using Oracle Business Process Management solutions. by Fred Sandsmark
- by JuergenKress
Like most companies, aerospace giant Boeing has its jargon - words
and phrases that uniquely define its products and processes. Take the
word platform. It is used at Boeing to mean a family of aircraft - the
F/A-18 fighter, for example, or the 777 jetliner.
Boeing Defense, Space & Security
since August 2009, employees in the Global Services & Support
(GS&S) division of Boeing Defense, Space & Security have been
talking about a different sort of platform: a supply chain technology
platform, based on Oracle Business Process Management (Oracle BPM) solutions and Oracle SOA Suite.
That platform, built with the assistance of Oracle Diamond Partner
Capgemini, is serving as a jumping-off point for Boeing's GS&S staff
to deploy radically improved business processes supported by Oracle
Fusion Applications to build a high-visibility, end-to-end supply chain.
This business process-driven technology platform has ambitious goals:
to help GS&S respond more quickly and accurately to its customers'
needs, to make business processes at all GS&S sites more consistent
and less expensive, and to create a foundation for further improvement
and efficiency. Read the full article here.
