Power Supply Manufacturer Selects Apriso

LONG BEACH, CA, March 13-Apriso, a provider of adaptive software solutions for global manufacturing operations management, announces that Spellman High Voltage Electronics Corp. has selected Apriso FlexNet to enhance real-time visibility and control over shop floor operations; help identify and distribute ‘best-practice’ processes across the enterprise; and support the firm’s Lean and continuous improvement initiatives.

Spellman, manufacturer of high-voltage power supplies, challenged itself to further enhance its Lean and continuous improvement programs to include processes spanning across operational silos, such as those impacting production, quality, inventory management and supply chain, as well as ensuring best processes are globally standardized.

“With FlexNet, our plan is to enhance visibility so we’re better able to adapt operations, letting us more efficiently respond to changing customer requirements without disrupting operations or sacrificing quality,” comments Mitch Alexander, CIO, Spellman. “In the end, we selected Apriso as a solution provider that could provide global visibility down to the shop floor, helping us identify which processes are indeed a best practice, which we will then globally distribute.”
