Production to distribution (ie by automatically incorporating order and commission by customers and supporting into the production process) etc.

 

        More technical advances are expected in the automation of telecommunication in business son, reduced lead time per existing and new product.  Received invent are more accurate control over production and better quality production management information like the following:

 

-      Increased utilization of expensive equipment

 

-      Reduce overhead cost

 

-      Improved and consisted quality

 

-      More accurate forecasting

 

-      Improved delivery performance
