COMPANY DETAILS

Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) came into existence on 1st October1964. The Company was formed by the merger of Hindustan Aircraft Limitedwith Aeronautics India Limited and Aircraft Manufacturing Depot, Kanpur.

The Company traces its roots to the pioneering efforts of an industrialist withextraordinary vision, the late Seth Walchand Hirachand, who set up HindustanAircraft Limited at Bangalore in association with the erstwhile princely State of Mysore in December 1940. The Government of India became a shareholder inMarch 1941 and took over the Management in 1942.

Today, HAL has 19 Production Units and 10 Research & Design Centres in 8locations in India. The Company has an impressive product track record - 15 typesof Aircraft/Helicopters manufactured with in-house R & D and 14 types producedunder license.HAL has manufactured over 3658 Aircraft/Helicopters , 4178 Engines, Upgraded 272 Aircraft and overhauledover 9643Aircraft and 29775 Engines .

HAL has been successful in numerous R & D programs developed for bothDefense and Civil Aviation sectors. HAL has made substantial progress in itscurrent projects:

Advanced Light Helicopter Weapon System Integration (ALH-WSI)

Tejas - Light Combat Aircraft (LCA)

Intermediate Jet Trainer (IJT)

Light Combat Helicopter (LCH)

Various military and civil upgrades.

About ERP and keys to ERP success at HAL

ERP is a Tool which orchestrates Business by Top-Down Planning. It brings Process Improvements in Organization using IT as the ENABLER.ERP is NOT a magic wand. It is not a tool to computerize every activity. Itdoes NOT solve all your problems. It is NOT a resource optimization toolneither a merely Computerization.

Some misconceptions about ERP include:

This is an EDP Project Success is in the hands of solution providers We dont have time

ERP implementation spans the entire organization. No department whichremains untouched. It is a project which causes major change in theorganization.

ERP IMPLEMENTATION

The main aim to implement ERP is enumerated below:

ERP implementation spans the entire organization. No department which remains untouched. A project which causes major change in the organization.

The main phases in order to implement ERP include:



4/9

PROJECT MANAGEMENT

Define, Plan, Control and Manage the Project.

Manage Plan, People, Issues, and Risks.

Communicate Status.

PROCESS MANAGEMENT

Map Business Processes to Application.

Document and Train in Process Solution.

DATA MANAGEMENT

Map and Migrate Data to IFS Applications.

Define Data Standards and Ownership


Build and Configure the Application Solution according to the Functional Requirements.


Specify, Setup and Configure the Production Environment.



5/9

PROJECT MANAGEMENTRequires regular Enterprise steering committee meetings

Once every month.

Review progress against plan. Take corrective action against slippages. Requires regular Divisional steering committee meetings. Once every fortnight. Review progress against plan. Take corrective action against slippages. Ensure standardization across divisions

PROCESS MANAGEMENT

ERP focus is on processes. A process cuts across departmental boundaries. Improving process efficiency does not look at departmental objectives. Must look beyond departmental boundaries

Process team:

Solution lies in creating a dedicated team at each division with mandate tofinish process mapping in a month.

The team constitution to be:

A senior person(s) from the HAL division for each process having fullknowledge of the process.One coordinator for each process from Pilot site who was activelyinvolved in implementation at any pilot sites.One coordinator from BAeHAL/ IFS team per module.

Joint sitting of different process teams belonging to different sites at acommon place.



7/9

DATA MANAGEMENTDATA IS THE KNOWLEDGE

Any IT application cant be more intelligent than its programmer.&

It cant be more Knowledgeable than its users

The ultimate aim of ERP is to ensure high quality data.

End Users most knowledgeable about data. Best equipped to refine high quality data. Highest lead time activity in whole implementation. Must form dedicated data refining teams. Teams to start work immediately. Goal is migration of refined data into IFS. BAeHAL/ IFS to provide full guidance for actions required.

The data team constitution to be:

Representatives from each department responsible for data. 1 Representative of Divisional IT Team attached exclusively to all

major data departments & one to all minor ones put together. One coordinator from each major department from any Pilot site who

was involved in data cleansing to share his experiences. Workshop at a central location to clarify the data standards that are

required by ERP One coordinator from BAeHAL/ IFS team per division for all

departments. Major data bottleneck is EDM and IMM data needs to

be closed first



8/9


Should meet requirements of critical business processes. Application already tested & proven at pilots. Focus on quick implementation by adopting application in areas common

with pilot divisions. Customization of the product should be avoided Pilot sites have ensured

the changes as required by HAL Detailed activities required only for uncommon areas. Action required by divisions to go through PQD, consult Pilot divisions, to

identify processes which are common or different.


Slow response from server can put interest off. It must ensure sufficient musclein terms of CPU power, Disk Space for the server. Data needs to be capturedright at the point where it is generated. It requires data to be input by the user who performs physical transaction, almost instantly & at his place of work. Itrequires availability of PC, printers & net work for each user at his work place.Inaccessibility can bring inefficiencies, delays.

The hardware infrastructure creation is a long lead time activity. It must startaction immediately to avoid any delays.



9/9

CONCLUSION

Thus the main phases of the ERP system can be implemented as follows:

Name the Project Manager.Constitute Process Teams to identify processes different from Pilotdivisions.Constitute Data Teams to start data refining.Identify users not having PC or LAN connection.Finalize server configuration in consultation with BAeHAL/ IFS.Place orders for hardware.
