Advantages of «M-3 Integrated Enterprise Management System» Software Complex
Functionality
The system fully corresponds to international requirements, imposed on integrated management systems of ERP class and represents fully functional ERP system. At the same time in terms of functionality «M-3» SC is the optimal solution for Russian enterprises, while foreign systems are extremely oversized with respect to real needs of clients. As Russian practice shows, objectively enterprises use no more than 10-15% of functionality of western systems. But the remaining part of functional capabilities must be paid for by license value, requirements for computational power and unreasonable difficulty of personnel training.
System integrity
From the very beginning the system was developed as fully functional ERP system, rather than «sewed» of pieces, while the majority of all western and Russian products were developed from separate modules (generally financial ones) and then were enlarged by inclusion of new modules.
Business logic of lower level is entirely performed on system server and implemented on triggers and stored procedures, which ensures high level of system integrity that means that in case of change of state of any object the system automatically traces through all consequences and indicates change of states of other interrelated objects. As the result it is guaranteed that an enterprise obtains actual database with no use of manual checking procedures, verification of data changes etc.
Multilevel business logic
Sophisticated system of communication and business process engineering is realized in the system. The system has multilevel business logic, which enables to combine principle of centralized development of system basic logic with possibilities of business process engineering in accordance with enterprise specifics. System of business process adjustment, which allows simulating both work of separate enterprise and corporation (holding), is realized in the system. As the result, with clear responsibility of engineering company for correct work of basic business logic there is a possibility of creation of own business logic of system work on certain enterprise without integrity violation.
Possibility of keeping of used programs upon receipt of basic functions of ERP system at the expense of «Ì3-SOA» use
Use of «Ì3-SOA» offers an opportunity of unique implementation of an ERP system, in case that input of data is carried out in old systems, familiar to users, and mutual data coordination, in terms of means and recourses, is carried out in «Ì-3» by limited number of qualified users, who have rights to make management decisions. As the result, number of trainees, terms and value of EPR system implementation decrease many times. As of today, we have seen any similar implementation technology in no foreign system, known to us.
Consideration of Russian specifics
From the very beginning the system was designed for complicated aircraft enterprise and considers all specifics, difficulties and imperfections of Russian production management model. From then on the system was developed with direct involvement of customers – leading Russian enterprises, that ensures its compliance with real needs of Russian economics. With regard to specifics of Russian conditions, possibilities of both hard and soft management, depending on management culture and enterprise conditions, are realized in the majority of «Ì-3» System's modules.
Experience
Main advantage of the system is that it was really implemented in complicated Russian enterprises of high-tech industries (atomic, metallurgical, aircraft and chemical) with up to 1,000 work places.
Simplicity
Modern and perfect interface, based on the principle of work place simulation by virtue of organization of on-line system. This approach allows maximum simplification of user's work with the system. System interface is built so that even employee of respectively low qualification is able to get familiar with it in a few days. As opposed to many foreign systems, even common pre-retirement age workers cope with «Ì-3» system's interface, and training time constitutes two-three days.
Technologies and implementation terms
The system is implemented according to hard technologies, based on real experience of project realization on large Russian enterprises. Meanwhile the company provides rather flexible list of implementation types: from implementation of standard system counter to development and support of special purpose version of the system and business process package in accordance with enterprise specifics.
Use of clear implementation schedules, remote support technologies, as well as «Ì3-SOA» enables to significantly lower implementation terms in comparison with western analogues.
Relations with clients
«KST – «Ì-3» Company is the developer of «Ì-3» System. At the moment specialists of this particular company perform system implementation. In such a way, in case of implementation project realization specialists of the company will work with direct developers and implementors, that is inappropriate of representatives of western systems, which work through dealers, limited in their activity by terms of partner contracts. As Russian and foreign practice shows, one of the reasons of considerable number of plucks of expensive western system implementation projects is exactly remoteness of real employees from developers, general over-sizing of systems and, as a consequence, lack of necessary competence in solving of real client's problems.
Products
Full product line on the system basis, which is able to solve the majority of all management problems of an enterprise, is offered. Besides, solutions for all enterprise types – from middle company to large holding – are realized.
Cost
With full competitiveness of the system in comparison with western analogues, its cost is formed on the principle of consideration of all provided services (including consulting) at the stage of the Contract conclusion. In such a way a customer immediately sees full contract amount as opposed to practice of western system implementation, when at the beginning one amount is nominated, but in course of the project it is increased many times at the expense of hourly consulting. Besides, at the expense of applied technologies, cost of «Ì-3» System implementation project, we suggest, is significantly lower that the same of western analogues.
