Business Wire
CDC Software Corporation (NASDAQ: CDCS), a hybrid enterprise
software provider of on-premise and cloud deployments, announced
today Berner Food and Beverage has completed implementation of
Event Management Framework (EMF) for CDC Ross Enterprise, a
solution which delivers real-time alerting, exception management,
and workflows to increase visibility and improve productivity
throughout an enterprise.
Dakota, Illinois-based Berner Food and Beverage is a leading
private label/store brand supplier of quality food and beverage
products including processed cheese, snack dips, latte and meal
replacement beverages. Berner implemented EMF primarily to improve
worker productivity by reducing the administrative time it takes to
run reports and hold meetings.
As a long time user of CDC Software solutions that include Ross
ERP, CDC Factory and Pivotal CRM, Berner implemented EMF primarily
to improve worker productivity by reducing the administrative time
it takes to run reports and hold meetings.
The integrated solution, which was installed within two days and
in which alerts initially configured within five days at Berner,
goes across multiple databases within the company and monitors them
without the need for time consuming customization.
“EMF is highly accessible and presents information from multiple
sources to our employees in a quick and easy-to-read format in the
form of an email or dashboard,” said Jason Ulrich, analyst for
Executive Management of Berner Food and Beverage. “We realized the
benefit of using EMF within one hour of installation. With our
initial alerts, already we have saved at least a half hour of time
from each of our four to five meetings that occur weekly and
sometimes daily. It was also easy to get the system up and running,
as well as apply the alerts to our businesses processes. The
package of alerts that came with EMF applied to our operations
straight out of the box.”
EMF for Ross Enterprise includes alerting technologies with
proactive event detection and flexible resolution workflows. The
solution can predict and react to events and information in
disparate business systems. EMF also initiates a full-circle
process to notify the right people on the right channel, and
monitors the response and feedback. EMF is a 24-hour view into a
manufacturer’s operations that proactively addresses non-events
like the lack of response to a purchase order, or an overdue
delivery or a missing time sheet entry. Event or exception
conditions to be monitored are defined using an enterprise’s
existing query structures. The enterprise can decide what it wants
to monitor and how it wants to receive the notifications that can
include dashboards, pagers, cell phones, e-mail, faxes, and web
browsers.
“A process manufacturer must be able to identify and react
quickly to changes all throughout its enterprise, especially in its
supply chain, since if an event does not happen on schedule,
production could be halted entirely,” said Bruce Cameron, president
of CDC Software. “From supplying real time order status
information, resolving problems before they escalate to avoiding
stock outs, EMF will improve productivity through reducing
administrative time and promoting a more responsive and adaptive
supply chain in an enterprise.”
