Harnessing the Power of AI to Help Manufacturers Sell More at the Right Time

AI: Transforming Manufacturing—From Production to Profitability

As AI reshapes industries, manufacturers ask critical questions: How will customers discover and purchase products in an AI-driven world? And how can companies keep pace with these advancements?

At Crossroads RMC, we address these challenges with our AI Readiness Assessment (AIRA). An AIRA creates a clear, actionable digital roadmap, significantly boosting efficiency, accuracy, and strategic capabilities. This assessment ensures a smooth, swift AI transition.

AI Readiness Assessment targets key Financial areas:

  • Cash Flow Management: AI improves cash flow forecasting, identifying potential shortfalls before they impact operations.

  • Cost Control: By analyzing spending patterns, AI reveals areas for cost reduction; maintaining quality and efficiency.

  • Financial Forecasting: AI uses historical data and market trends to enhance forecasting accuracy, empowering strategic financial decisions.

AI Readiness Assessment targets key Operations areas:

  • Production Planning: AI optimizes production planning by analyzing data and forecasting demand, helping to balance workloads and minimize downtime.
  • Supply Chain Disruptions: AI predicts potential disruptions and suggests alternative suppliers or routes, enhancing supply chain resilience.
  • ​Quality Control: AI detects defects in real-time and predicts quality issues before they occur, leading to higher consistency and fewer recalls.


AI Readiness Assessment targets key Technology areas:

  • Data Management: AI organizes, analyzes, and develops actionable insights from data.
  • Security and Compliance: AI enhances cybersecurity measures by detecting anomalies and potential threats in real-time, and automates compliance checks to ensure adherence to regulatory standards.
  • ​Performance Monitoring: AI continuously monitors system performance and identifies areas for improvement, ensuring optimal operation.
     

AI Readiness Assessment target key Executive areas:

  • Operational Visibility: AI integrates data from various sources to provide real-time visibility into all aspects of the business, enhancing oversight and control.
  • Risk Management: AI analyzes market trends, supply chain data, and internal processes to identify potential risks and recommend mitigation strategies.
  • Market Competitiveness: AI provides insights into market trends, customer preferences, and competitor activities, helping executives stay ahead of the curve.

Clients who want to process more than one customer order line, one item, or one shop order are now able to continue processing without having to leave the Multi-Level Backflush screen. After entering data for a specific category, users are now able to use the F18=Accept & Continue function key that allows users to start and complete an action and remain on the MultiLevel Backflush screen, LMP600D1, to perform the next action. Previously, users were sent back out to the SYS500-06 screen after processing using single customer order line, shop order, or item.

This enhancement includes these programs or areas:

  • Lean Production Back-flush Selection Panel, LMP600D  
  • Lean Production Back-flush Selection Panel, LMP600FM
  • Lean Production Back-flush Selection Panel, LMP600HT

EGLi users who maintain journal entries in a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet can use this utility to upload journal entries to EGLi. The Journal Upload installation program adds an Add-Ins tab to Microsoft Excel. This tab includes options to connect to the server where EGLi is installed and to open a spreadsheet template to use for manual journal entry. When the spreadsheet is complete, the Add-Ins tab is used to upload the spreadsheet.

To install Journal Upload:

  1.  The Power-Link Installation page has links to the Client installation programs and a link to download and install the Journal Upload utility. To access this page, use this link with your own values for system and NetLinkport: http://system:NetLinkport/Installs/ClientInstall/Install.html  where system is the server where IDF is installed and NetLinkport is the Net-Link port, typically 36001
     
  2. On the Power-Link Installation page, click the link provided to download and install EGLi Journal Upload.
     
  3. Follow the screen prompts to complete the installation on your PC.
     
  4. To verify the installation, open an Excel spreadsheet. Confirm that the Add-Ins tab is on the spreadsheet.
