挑战
Somnopro Group 是中国最大的床垫制造商之一，它意识到需要对物流进行更严格的控制，以满足客户对更快交货的需求。该公司服务的客户群遍布中国各地。为了保证更及时地处理客户订单，Somnopro Group 希望通过开设新工厂来扩大其生产网络的覆盖范围，确保在正确的地点生产正确数量的每种产品，并协调物流流程以便及时发货订单。要实现这一点，需要清晰地了解运营的各个方面，并紧密整合不同的业务职能。然而，由于没有一种简单的方法来监控和管理整个集团的活动，Somnopro Group 很难为决策者提供他们所需的信息，以制定有效的制造和分销战略。
关于客户
索姆诺普集团是中国最大的床垫制造商之一，于 1971 年生产了中国第一张弹簧床垫。该公司目前在中国拥有七个制造中心和 1,300 多家零售店，为国内和国际市场生产床垫、寝具和其他家具产品。多年来，索姆诺普集团已成为中国消费者的首选。保持这一市场领先地位并非没有挑战：随着竞争加剧和客户期望不断提高，索姆诺普集团意识到必须实现运营现代化，才能跟上当今市场的需求。
解决方案
Somnopro Group 着手实施一项雄心勃勃的项目，以彻底改革制造和物流业务，并选择 Oracle JD Edwards EnterpriseOne 作为这一变革工作的关键推动因素。这一决定是出于该解决方案具有竞争力的拥有成本和紧密集成性。在选择该技术来推动业务转型后，Somnopro Group 的注意力转向寻找能够专业指导实施的合作伙伴。这一搜索使该公司找到了 IBM 全球企业咨询服务部。Somnopro Group 与 IBM 全球企业咨询服务部合作，从头开始设计和部署了一个统一的 ERP 平台，该平台基于一套 Oracle JD Edwards EnterpriseOne 应用程序构建，包括财务、分销和制造模块，并由 Oracle 数据库支持。为了为 JD Edwards 应用程序提供强大的基础，Somnopro Group 实施了两台 IBM System x 服务器。IBM Power® 550 服务器支持底层 Oracle 数据库，该公司使用 IBM System Storage® DS4700 以较低的总拥有成本提供可扩展的高性能存储。

With increasing sophistication, they may also provide time- and location-based data pertaining to sales, inventory, and customer preferences. But at the end of the day, vending machine operators know greater profitability is driven by higher sales and lower operating costs.
