Cincom Releases New "Field-to-Factory" White Paper

How Manufacturers Can "Harvest Demand"


CINCINNATI, OH -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 01/24/06 -- Cincom Manufacturing
Business Solutions has released a new white paper titled
"Field-to-factory -- how manufacturers harvest demand"
(http://www.cincom.com/pdf/CM051216-1.pdf) authored by Louis Columbus.


"Field-to-factory -- how manufacturers harvest demand" is an in-depth
analysis and review that identifies the need for field-to-factory
vision in manufacturing through the following insights:



-- The field-to-factory vision is critical, because the ability to

compete and win business, then fulfill orders accurately, reliably, and

profitably, distinguishes the manufacturers that grow versus those that

shrink or go out of business altogether.


-- The fact that every company is a global competitor and each has to

harness speed, accuracy, and agility as competitive weapons to survive in

an increasingly competitive world.


-- In manufacturing, speed and accuracy already beat out geographic

preferences thousands of times a day.



Case studies from Trane and Greenheck Fan showcase their success in
achieving the field-to-factory vision.

demand" white paper is available at
