快速移动计划是日立汽车系统制动业务部门的标准设备

数据在销售、产能、采购、资源和财务计划之间自动传输,使领先的汽车制动器制造商相互连接、灵活和有弹性。

Due to two- to four-year product development cycles, success for the Brake Business Unit of Hitachi Automotive Systems depends on a clear view of the future. By building and connecting multiple plans in Anaplan—starting with sales and ending in cash outlook—the Brake Business Unit has comprehensive support for financial planning, powerful data for vendor negotiations, and the ability to rapidly alter course as conditions change.\r\n"}}" id="text-8bea2f2dd6" class="cmp-text">
由于产品开发周期为两到四年,日立汽车系统制动事业部的成功取决于对未来的清晰认识。通过在ananplan中建立和连接多个计划(从销售开始,到现金展望结束),制动业务部门为财务规划提供了全面的支持,为供应商谈判提供了强大的数据,并能够根据情况变化迅速改变方向。

更频繁的五年计划


With long timelines and complex products, the automotive industry relies on accurate planning to succeed. Take it from Augustin Fabre, Controller in the Brake Business Unit of Hitachi Automotive Systems, a leading manufacturer of automotive braking solutions: “From the time we are chosen by a manufacturer to when we deliver a product is between two and four years,” he says. “We need a clear view of the future, so planning is very, very important.”

\r\n

For years the company used a labor-intensive system of spreadsheets and databases to plan in its 15 entities. In 2012, before being acquired by Hitachi Automotive Systems when it was called Chassis Brakes International, the company created the clear view it wanted based on five connected Anaplan models:

    \r\n
  • Sales planning forecasts sales volume seven years into the future. Leveraging third-party data on automakers’ plans, the model helps the Brake Business Unit decide which new projects and contracts they can win and how much they will sell.
  • \r\n
  • Capacity planning determines the industrial capacity and capital investments, such as machines and tooling, needed to support the sales plan.
  • \r\n
  • Purchasing planning calculates the raw materials and components needed to meet the capacity plan and provides a consolidated view of purchasing across all plants, which helps with vendor negotiations.
  • \r\n
  • Resource planning establishes the people needed to bring a product to market. Product development is a multi-year process, and each product requires a unique mix of roles depending on product complexity.
  • \r\n
  • Project finance integrates data from all of the plans to provide a rolling five-year outlook on cash the projects will generate. In the past, this “mid-term plan” was completed every two years; with Anaplan, it’s done annually.
  • \r\n

“The sales plan is the starting point for every project,” Fabre explains. “From sales to cash, we now manage and track our business in Anaplan.” The system provides detailed business insights year-round and minimizes reaction time when conditions change.

由于时间长,产品复杂,汽车行业的成功依赖于准确的规划。以领先的汽车制动解决方案制造商日立汽车系统制动事业部总监Augustin Fabre的话说:“从我们被制造商选中到我们交付产品需要两到四年的时间。”“我们需要对未来有一个清晰的认识,所以规划非常、非常重要。”

多年来,该公司一直使用一种劳动密集型的电子表格和数据库系统来规划其15个实体。2012年,在被日立汽车系统公司(Hitachi Automotive Systems)收购之前,该公司以“底盘刹车国际”(Chassis Brakes International)的名字命名,该公司基于五个相连的anplan模型,创造了它想要的清晰视野:

  • 销售计划预测未来7年的销量。利用汽车制造商计划的第三方数据,该模型帮助制动业务部门决定他们可以赢得哪些新项目和合同,以及他们将销售多少。
  • 容量规划确定支持销售计划所需的工业能力和资本投资,如机器和工具。
  • 采购计划计算满足产能计划所需的原材料和组件,并提供所有工厂采购的统一视图,这有助于供应商谈判。
  • 资源规划建立将产品推向市场所需的人员。产品开发是一个多年的过程,根据产品的复杂性,每个产品都需要独特的角色组合。
  • 项目融资整合所有计划的数据,提供项目将产生现金的滚动五年展望。过去,这个“中期计划”每两年完成一次;而anplan则是每年一次。

“销售计划是每个项目的起点,”法布尔解释道。“从销售到现金,我们现在在anplan上管理和跟踪我们的业务。”该系统全年提供详细的业务洞察,并在条件变化时最大限度地减少反应时间。

Anaplan形象

“We now have a much clearer view of the future,” Fabre says. “If something changes on a project, everyone knows it immediately and can respond quickly.” In 2020, as the coronavirus shocked global automotive markets, this long-term view of sales, capacity, purchasing, and resource plans helped support accurate decision-making at the company.

\r\n

That clear view of the company’s business plan was also used during the acquisition of Chassis Brakes International by Hitachi Automotive Systems in 2019. “With Anaplan, we have a very good overview of the business, its projects, and our profitability,” Fabre says. “It was easy to show that to a buyer.”

\r\n

Promptly after the acquisition, the decision was made to bring other operations of the Brake Business Unit into Anaplan—a project that took Fabre just two months. Now, some 20 business entities worldwide share an accurate, agile planning solution. “With Anaplan, we are confident in our data and our capacity to react,” he notes. “None of this was possible before.”

“我们现在对未来有了更清晰的认识,”法布尔说。“如果项目中有什么变化,每个人都能立即知道,并迅速做出反应。”2020年,随着冠状病毒震惊全球汽车市场,这种对销售、产能、采购和资源计划的长期看法有助于支持公司的准确决策。

在2019年日立汽车系统(Hitachi Automotive Systems)收购底盘制动器国际公司(Chassis Brakes International)期间,也采用了这种对公司商业计划的清晰看法。法布尔表示:“有了anplan,我们对业务、项目和盈利能力有了很好的了解。“向买家展示这一点很容易。”

收购完成后,Fabre立即决定将制动事业部的其他业务纳入anplan,这一项目仅用了两个月的时间。现在,全球大约有20个业务实体共享一个准确、敏捷的计划解决方案。他指出:“有了anplan,我们对自己的数据和应对能力充满信心。”“这在以前是不可能的。”
