Application about APS to Chinese companies
Many netizens put forward that the basic informationization of most companies in China has not been implemented, and ERP is far less uncomfortable in SMEs, and it is impossible to complete the APS (advanced production schedule), and it is not necessary. But there are also many netizens who think that: APS is urgently needed in China, must be popular as soon as possible. There is an image case that is suitable for the current situation. A shoe company, sent people to a island to investigate the foot of the shoes. When this person found people on the island, they did not wear shoes, so I sent a very depressed survey report. Think that people on this island did not wear shoes. There will be no sales here. . The company expressed his doubts, so they sent another person to investigate. When this person looks at the residents of the island, it is very excited. She quickly wrote a survey report, and the shoe market here has not yet been developed, and there is no competition, and the company is required to immediately ship the goods. Domestic APS is also in a similar situation, everyone is light. So some people think that there is no need, there is no such market at all, and some people think that the demand is huge. Both views are biased, both of which are virtual under certain conditions. For sell shoes, you need to understand the real reason for the island's foot feet. If it is because there is no one to promote wearing shoes, or just traditional customs have made, then the future market will be broad; if it is because of local Climate factors, or need for a specific life environment without shoes, then the market will be relatively small. Therefore, there is a more critical determinant behind the back of the surface. For Chinese companies, there is a more profound reason not to get on the APS. At present, there are only a few foreign large ERP software in the domestic market to have an APS function, and the price is expensive, which is a very important restriction. In addition, the APS has its application range, which is most suitable for multi-variety small batch production process complex enterprises. For a single variety, large quantity, production process simple enterprises, the effect of APS is not proportional to its price. There is also a universal degree of popularization of the APS concept. Most ERP users can also notify the true difference between APS and ERP production management, and why do you want to APS. Insufficient understanding is an important limit on the APS in China. This is very helpful for understanding the current situation of domestic APS. At present, there are 10% of China under all enterprises in China belong to multi-variety, small batch, complex, and press the order production type, which is the basic potential market for APS. Only 10% of companies have a clear understanding of the APS, which means that only 1% of companies in China have more mature APS markets. For them, the maximum limit of APS is functional, and there is also an implementation problem. Domestic software companies must solve the core technical problems of APS, develop powerful, low prices, convenient products, this 1% 'small' market is still high. Moreover, the market development rules determine this ratio will gradually expand rather than narrow, so APS is not a market, but there is a large market space and development. But all kinds of limitations have also determined that it is not easy to develop a gold mine of wealth, and it needs to be more difficult to accumulate and efforts. Many netizens show special importance to some technical details of the APS. According to the APS, the APS established is a fragile planning system. A small emergency on the production line is enough to destroy the entire APS plan system, so that it cannot be in the basic theory. Established. The strain treatment for emergencies can be referred to as 'dynamic processing', which is substantially a change in the plan. Since the APS can handle a variety of complex production conditions to generate an optimized plan, the APS can also process the same optimized plan, which can also process the same optimized plan, and the new plan itself is a response to the conditional changes. However, its calculation time may not be able to change the sudden and frequent frequency, and cannot achieve the requirements of 'dynamic'. Therefore, the calculation speed becomes the key to the APS processing burst event, as long as the time allows the possibility that there is no emergency causes any problems.
