About HMC
Established in 1967, Hyundai Motor Co. has grown into the Hyundai-Kia Automotive Group
which was ranked as the world’s sixth largest automaker in 2005 and includes over two dozen
auto-related subsidiaries and affiliates. Employing over 68,000 people worldwide, Hyundai
Motor posted US$58.1 billion in sales in 2005 (on a consolidated basis). Hyundai vehicles are
sold in 193 countries through some 5000 dealerships and showrooms.
Management Information System
The company's Enterprise Information and Management System (EIMS) is the first executive information system built with SAS software in Korea. Created in three months for the current domestic automotive market, the EIMS is not just a corporate-wide business management system, but was also built to support and facilitate executive decision-making.
For data extraction, Hyundai Motor Company chose to use SAS/Warehouse Administrator software, which provides a single point of control for managing the company's data warehouse-a repository of decision support information.
The system has three main components:
A warning system allows executives to view all levels of sales and production volumes and to locate low levels of performance by comparing these figures with a previously defined warning point.
A goal-oriented system keeps executives informed on the progression towards long-term goals.
A decision support system provides timely access to management-level information.
Reports produced from the EIMS are delivered directly to the company's executives. The EIMS warehouses information from a wide range of departments in Hyundai Motor Company, such as:
Human Resources, which includes organizational charts, personnel records, and staff counts
Domestic Sales, including daily and monthly sales, market share, and market analysis (according to grade)
Foreign Sales, consisting of foreign exports, daily exports, local sales, inventory, and competitive analysis
Production, including production per factory and per model, target achievement, and factory operation.
Hyundai has found that the best way to protect its current capital investments is to invest further into managing its most valuable asset-information. The Enterprise Information and Management System gives the company the freedom to be proactive and innovative instead of always reacting to market movements. And they are expecting this to continue to drive the company ahead of its competitors.

ARTICLE REVIEW
Maximizing Value from SAP
Introduction
Many leading corporations have made substantially investments in SAP technology to improve
supply chain performance with suppliers, customers, distributors, retailers and other trading
partners. Realizing the maximum value from these SAP investments requires full participation
from all trading partners to obtain from them the accurate and timely information required by
SAP to communicate to them the decisions that need to be executed across the supply chain.
Several leading corporations that rely on SAP are enjoying they are enjoying the benefits of a
Software as a Service (SaaS) approach to supply chain collaboration resulting in faster time- to-
value, lower cost of ownership, reduce resource requirements and lower risk.
Wide diversity of technology and skills across supply chain trading partners
A wide variety of process and technical capabilities exists across trading partners on a global
basis. A minority of trading partners have the IT expertise and recourses necessary to support
advanced company- to- company integration technologies such as electronic data interchange
(EDI) or extensible markup language (XML), while the majority of collaboration is still being
conducted using manual methods such as phone, faxes and email. Although SAP has achieved a
leadership position in the market for supply chain software, less than 15 % of installed supply
chain software is from SAP. Any supply chain collaboration solution must be flexible enough to
deal with the vast array of technologies, supported processes, and level of sophistication and
business readiness that exists across trading partners.
Longer time- to- implement and time- to- value, higher maintenance efforts and higher
total cost of ownership
Implementing and maintaining supply chain collaboration with trading partners often takes
longer and costs more than many companies anticipate because they are fundamental differences
from deploying and maintaining internal applications. Causes of unexpected costs and effort
include:
1. Establishing and managing the infrastructure necessary to support company- to- company
collaboration.
2. Establishing and managing the necessary technologies to support any- to- any trading
partner connectivity and data mapping.
3. Establishing and managing the multi company role and access model necessary to ensure
information security across all trading partners.
Trading partner on- boarding
Trading partner on-boarding involves more than just developing a software integration
technology and then telling trading partners to jump on board. Critical to success is deploying an
on boarding environment and portal, and establishing a global communication and on- boarding
deployment methodology.
Changes and Upgrade
Companies struggle with changing, upgrading and deploying new versions of in- house software,
but the problems are magnified when the software is used by hundreds or thousands of globally
dispersed supply chain trading partners.
Resolution Plan for Key Issues
Organizations that have successfully integrated with their supply chain partners to enable
collaborative, shared supply chain processes have migrated or eliminated many of the issues and
challenges previously identified. The following is a practical approach for success based on
proven ways used by companies that have successfully resolved or mitigated these challenges:
Deploy a Shared Process and Information Platform
Deploy a shared process and information platform to support collaborative supply chain
processes that need to be executed properly across two or more tiers of the supply chain. Use
the shared platform to eliminate any latency in communicating demand or supply changes, to
identify potential problems before they occur, and to measure the processes against common
metrics.
Enable Trading Partners to Adopt the Collaborative Processes
Full value cannot be achieved if trading partners cannot adopt and participate in the defined
collaborative process due to technology limitations or lack of resources. An effective global
partner communication, training and on- boarding methodology are needed to ensure the
timely roll- out of the end- to- end program. The project should be staffed with resources
trained and experienced in these types of projects.
Adopt a SaaS Approach for Deployment and On- going Management
An experienced supply chain collaboration SaaS vendor can alleviate many of the
deployment and operational issues associated with integrated and on- boarding partners to a
supply chain collaboration solution. Leveraging the SaaS vendor’s expertise reduces
implementation of time and risk, accelerates time- to- value, lowers total cost of ownership
(TCO) and improves return on investment (ROI).
Five Important Information from the Article
In addition to a robust trading partner integration and supply chain collaboration software, a
SaaS provider must provide the following required services to reduce deployment
timeframes:
1. Rigorous application deployment and upgrade processes that leverage pre- configured
industry templates, best practices, and tools developed based on extensive experience
deploying supply chain collaboration solutions.
2. Optimized hardware and infrastructure that maximize performance and availability
while minimizing costs.
3. Robust customer service portal that provides service level agreement reporting,
access to training and knowledge bases, and incident resolution and escalation.
4. Auditable security and data retention policies that ensure data is protected and
maintained in regulatory compliance.
5. Systems management infrastructure distributed across the internet that ensures
availability and performance for all trading partners regardless of their location and
level of technical sophistication.
