With cars now personalised fashion items, manufacturers have to deal not only with significant production complexity, but how to get late changes faster along the supply chain. This implementation at Tier One automotive supplier Johnson Controls Interiors impressed the panel with its solution. Shap Haque, director of IT operations, explains: “The problems we were facing drove us to re-think MRP. We have been using QAD Mfg/Pro ERP for nearly 15 years throughout our organisation and we have extensive knowledge of JIT [just in time] sequencing, so we decided to develop a solution in partnership with QAD.”
