关于客户
Evonik Industries AG is a global industrial group that operates in over 100 countries. As of 2009, the company had revenues of 13.1 billion euros and a headcount of 39,000. The group’s activities in the fields of specialty chemicals, coal-fired and renewable energies, and residential property offer outstanding opportunities for profitable growth. Evonik is a global leader in the field of specialty chemicals. The company relies on SAP software to run its international operations.
挑战
Evonik Industries, a global industrial group, was facing challenges with its international operations. The lack of uniform representation standards and file formats for processes made it difficult to gain a cross-sectional view of the enterprise and prevented the development of a shared understanding of processes and process management. This became particularly clear when preparing for an SAP roll out in Greater China. The company was aiming for shorter documentation times and standardized process documentation, with the aim of reducing the number of process harmonization workshops to a minimum. The resulting documentation base would be used for future projects and help create a shared process understanding. The constant demand for training created an urgent need for comprehensive process documentation in China.
解决方案
Evonik opted for the ARIS product portfolio to handle its SAP roll out more efficiently. The ability to use the same standard platform across all international locations, plus the intuitive way processes are displayed, convinced the company that ARIS would enable it to handle SAP roll out more efficiently. A further benefit was IDS Scheer’s global presence, which would ensure local support where needed. This was particularly useful in the case of the Tong Yi project in China, which was embedded in Evonik’s IT environment and supported by IDS Scheer China. All processes were documented using ARIS Design Platform and linked to SAP Solution Manager transactions. The integration with SAP Solution Manager was important because ARIS enables a link between modeled processes and their mapping in SAP without using SAP standard content.

Advanced Elastomer Systems Upgrades Production
In order to maintain its share of the international market for thermoplastic elastomers AES recently expanded its Florida plant by adding a new production line. While the existing lines were operating satisfactorily using a PROVOX distributed control system with traditional analog I/O, AES wanted advanced technology on the new line for greater economy, efficiency, and reliability. AES officials were anxious to get this line into production to meet incoming orders, but two hurricanes slowed construction.

Field Device Asset Management For Chemical Company in China
Chinese chemical subsidiary of multinational corporation serves customers throughout the world. Sales offices and research and technology centers are strategically located to provide rapid response to customer requests. Just two workers were assigned to maintain thousands of intelligent instruments in three production units, so they could do little more than react to device issues as they appeared. This costly maintenance method inevitably led to unexpected downtime when a critical instrument failed. Plant management recognized the need to change from reactive to predictive maintenance for all assets, including instruments and control valves, but help was needed in implementing such a technology-based initiative.
