 CASE STUDY |
|
|
|
| |
| IMP Group International Inc. is a diversified, global organization with operations in aerospace, aviation, healthcare, industrial marine, property management, hospitality and information services. With 3700 people in 8 major divisions, IMP has been using JD Edwards EnterpriseOne to manage its operations. The complex processes required to manage diverse businesses from aerospace to property services has resulted in complex setup, maintenance and data management processes for their JD Edwards application. IMP Group needed a way to better manage its ERP infrastructure as its business grew and so also the transactional data in the JD Edwards environment running on MS SQL Server. |
| |
| IMP is running several modules of JD Edwards, including General Ledger, Accounts Payable, Accounts Receivable, Sales Order Management, Procurement and Work Order Management. The system was running into performance issues during peak periods and month end closings. Furthermore, key business and operational processes could not be completed during the available time windows. IMP looked to Solix EDMS Database Archiving to improve application performance, meet its business goals and lower maintenance cost and effort for its JD Edwards application. |
