A Case Study of Borcelik's Strategic Migration to a New IT Infrastructure

Tags:
infrastructure management

Overview Process manufacturers are focusing on IT investments that aid in enabling enhanced efficiency through the integration of plant data with business-wide resource planning systems. There is an increasing tendency towards the consolidation and simplification of the hardware environment. Process manufacturers look for efficiently integrated hardware and software platforms. They continue to move forward with the consolidation and standardization of solutions to reduce costs compared to traditional bespoke solutions and implement more discrete modules with complex applications as they seek quick ROI. Integration is becoming a major issue in the process sector, as companies aim to integrate shop-floor systems and top-level Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP). This paper elaborates the IT restructuring process in Borcelik - Turkey.
