The cloud offers many advantages to manufacturing companies, and the paper industry is a relatively late adopter.  Cloud-based systems can streamline key areas of your business, such as supply chain optimization, real time maintenance and integration with other areas of the company. Is it right for your mill? TAPPI invites you to a complimentary webinar on Tuesday September 22 at 12:00 p.m. EST hosted by Christophe Deslandes, VP and CTO of KapStone Paper and Packaging to learn more about this exciting topic. This webinar is brought to you by the PIMA IT Committee and is sponsored by Majiq 

 

This webinar will highlight some of the advantages and risks encountered by companies that have fully embraced the cloud.   Some examples:

•  Supplier portals and collaboration platforms with quality management dashboards and workflows. These include Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI) and demand management applications that deliver real-time order status and forecasts.
• Using two-tier ERP strategies to gain greater efficiency in material planning, supplier management and reduce logistics costs.  
• Maintenance systems making greater use of mobile devices and access to mill wide real-time reliability metrics. 
• Human Resource Management (HRM) systems unifying all manufacturing locations globally. This allows multisite talent management, recruiting, payroll and time tracking.
