SAP is rising in key ABB business processes
SAP軟件改善ABB關(guān)鍵業(yè)務(wù)流程
2007-03-15 - ABB has signed a strategic agreement with the German-based business software company, SAP, to deploy common SAP ERP (enterprise resource planning) software to help unify and simplify some of ABB’s most important business processes, and over time achieve significant savings.
3月15日消息——ABB已經(jīng)與德國商業(yè)軟件公司SAP公司簽署了一份戰(zhàn)略協(xié)議,裝配通用SAP ERP(企業(yè)資源計劃)軟件,幫助簡化ABB的一些最重要的業(yè)務(wù)流程,從而實(shí)現(xiàn)長久的大量節(jié)省。
The agreement means ABB has adopted SAP as its main ERP software. Over the next three years, SAPs ERP systems will be deployed across most of ABB’s business organizations, it was announced today.
該協(xié)議意味著ABB已經(jīng)采用SAP作為其主要ERP軟件。在未來的三年里,SAP的ERP系統(tǒng)將被安裝到ABB的大多數(shù)業(yè)務(wù)機(jī)構(gòu)中,這一消息是在今天宣布的。
In addition to supporting ABB’s various business processes, SAP will be used to bring about a high degree of standardization in the human resources, finance and administration and corporate governance functions.
除了支持ABB的各種業(yè)務(wù)流程,SAP還將帶來人力資源、財務(wù)、行政以及企業(yè)管理功能的一個高度標(biāo)準(zhǔn)化。
“We need a solution that empowers users to maintain their local best practices but at the same time ensures alignment with our common, global aims,” said Haider Rashid, ABB’s Chief Information Officer.
ABB首席信息官Haider Rashid表示:“我們需要一個使用者可以維持他們的本地最優(yōu)方法但同時又與我們的全球統(tǒng)一目標(biāo)保持一致的解決方案?!?/P>
Rashid said the partnership will help ABB cut costs and greatly simplify its global business processes. He added SAP software is also flexible enough to integrate local best practices and applications in existing business processes with mySAP’s global accounting standards and policies for governance, risk and compliance.
Rashid表示本次合作將幫助ABB削減成本,而且大大地簡化其全球業(yè)務(wù)流程。他補(bǔ)充道SAP軟件通過mySAP的管理、風(fēng)險和遵循環(huán)球會計標(biāo)準(zhǔn)和政策,還足夠靈活結(jié)合現(xiàn)有業(yè)務(wù)流程的本地最優(yōu)方法和應(yīng)用。
As a result of numerous acquisitions, ABB at one time had more than 500 ERP systems and 70 different ERP brands in operation across its businesses. The number has now been cut to 225, but the target is one ERP per country, and ultimately one ERP platform per region for all of ABB.
由于一系列的收購,ABB的業(yè)務(wù)曾經(jīng)使用著超過500個ERP系統(tǒng),70多個不同的ERP品牌?,F(xiàn)在這個數(shù)字已經(jīng)減少到了225,但ABB的目標(biāo)是一個國家一套ERP,最終實(shí)現(xiàn)一個區(qū)域一個ERP平臺。
ABB businesses in over 30 countries are currently studying the introduction of SAP software into their processes under the umbrella of One Simple ABB.
ABB在30多個國家的業(yè)務(wù)部門現(xiàn)在正在計劃在“一個簡化ABB”的目標(biāo)之下,把SAP軟件引進(jìn)他們的業(yè)務(wù)。
“We will achieve efficiency gains and further strong operational improvements by simplifying our business processes. With SAP, we are on a clear path to becoming one, simplified organization, and we are doing so with the goal of achieving a significant return on the investment.” Rashid added.
Rashid進(jìn)一步補(bǔ)充說:“通過簡化業(yè)務(wù)流程,我們將實(shí)現(xiàn)效率的獲得以及更好的運(yùn)作改進(jìn)。通過SAP,我們在一條明確的道路上成為一個統(tǒng)一、簡化的組織,而我們現(xiàn)在也正是如此來實(shí)現(xiàn)可觀投資回報的目標(biāo)?!?/P>
The agreement will make ABB one of SAP’s largest industrial customers. About 22,000 ABB employees currently use SAP software, and the global agreement will add a further 66,000 users, with an option to extend the software to all employees.
該協(xié)議將使ABB成為SAP最大的工業(yè)客戶之一。當(dāng)前大約又2萬2千名ABB員工使用著SAP的軟件,而這個全球協(xié)議將新增6萬6千名使用者,甚至所有的員工都可以選擇使用該軟件。
ERP software will help ABB integrate departments and functions with a single, unified integrated software program that is designed to replace stand-alone systems in finance and administration, HR and corporate governance, so departments can better share information and communicate with each other more easily.
ERP軟件將通過一個單獨(dú)的統(tǒng)一集成軟件計劃,用于代替財務(wù)、行政、人力資源以及企業(yè)管理的單機(jī)系統(tǒng),幫助ABB整合部門和功能,使得各部門之間更容易、更好地共享信息和溝通。
The first phase of the rollout is already underway in Germany, India, Sweden, Switzerland and the entire South Asia Pacific region including Australia, to be followed by Latin America and the United States.
該項目的第一階段已經(jīng)在德國、印度、瑞典、瑞士以及包括澳大利亞的整個南亞太地區(qū)準(zhǔn)備開展,接下來的是拉丁美洲和美國。

SAP于1972年由IBM的一些前雇員在德國成立。公司的名字代表著數(shù)據(jù)處理的系統(tǒng)應(yīng)用和產(chǎn)品。
