Our customers about their qualitative benefits

“Every Angle can be used by the end user, so there is no need to hire expensive

consultants.”

Rob van Munster, Controller Supply Chain

“It’s the very first time I’ve seen an ICT project that was

on time, on budget and delivered more than I expected.”

Fred Holvast, Logistics Director, SC Professional 2006

"Every Angle has made a tool that is very simple to use and has an easy to

understand data model behind it."

Johan Neuteboom

“From an IT perspective I can only say that Every Angle requires almost no

maintenance.”

Jan-Willem van der Meere, IT Manager

“What it understands and this is the key between Every Angle and a lot of

competition is the cross-process supply chain elements.“

Every Angle gebruik in de praktijk

Every Angle gebruik bij veel klanten:

» Vaak ad-hoc

» Blijft „hangen‟ bij enthousiaste key-users

» Niet geïntegreerd in management rapportage (of handmatig …)

» Beperkte operationele inbedding (integratie met werkprocessen)=

=> samengevat:

Every Angle is vaak het “best bewaarde geheim” binnen een

organisatie

Key question:

Hoe zorgen dat Every Angle ook echt wordt „ingebed‟ in organisatie

en processen, zodat de toegevoegde waarde verder toeneemt?

21

Page 22: Measuring, analyzing and improving business processes ... · Operational Performance Management - The next step Measuring, analyzing and improving business processes - finally easy

Uitdaging 1: inbedding in operatie

Vraag:

» Hoe zorgen dat alle operationele eindgebruikers makkelijk de

actielijsten kunnen opvolgen?

Oplossing:

» Bestaand: viewing users in Every Angle (i.c.m. company wide license)

» Nieuw: ZEA03 transactie

• Geen installatie van EAClient software

• Geen EA user acccount nodig

• Direct doorklikken naar SAP transactie voor de „actie‟

• Ondersteuning van ALV-Grid functionaliteit

• NB: alleen viewing functionaliteit (geen angles maken)

Uitdaging 2: inbedding in management

Vraag:

Hoe zorgen dat het management ook inzicht heeft in (en stuurt op)

operationele performance zoals door Every Angle wordt „berekend‟

(incl. koppeling naar „actielijsten‟ => zgn. „alignment‟)

Oplossing:

» Bestaand: handmatige export van angles naar MS Excel/Access

» Nieuw: Dashboard Engine om automatisch Every Angle content te

kunnen hergebruiken in management rapportages en BI-omgevingen

(SAP BW/BO, MS RS, QlikView, …)

• Angle2CSV

• Angle2SQL

NB. Automatiseren en hergebruik van Every Angle content/logica !!

• Different data sources (SAP, SQL, MES, etc) to build up the KPI overview.

• Unclear definitions of KPI.

• Laborious job, sensitive to errors by handwork to measure and present the KPIs,

• KPIs only updated once a Month.

• Different presentation formats for different KPIs, not one clear overview.

Challenges Approach Results

Rapid KPI prototyping
