Manufacturing
Manufacturing organizations are constantly looking for better ways to shorten product life cycles, manage complex inventories, work more efficiently with suppliers, and please demanding customers with fast and efficient order processing. To achieve these goals, manufacturers rely on a mix of applications, including Customer Relationship Management (CRM), Supply Chain Management (SCM), Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), product lifecycle management, order processing, and human resources. In addition, manufacturers in today's global economy work with networks of partners ranging from suppliers to component manufacturers, dealer networks and logistics organizations, which can be located thousands of miles from the manufacturer's data center. This means manufacturers need to speed application delivery from the data center to manufacturing sites, suppliers, warehouses, and distribution centers thereby needing to ensure all applications are secure and all intellectual property is protected.
