Abstract

Recognizing that communication is more important than ever, organizations have invested in new information technologies and raised the profile of their communication professionals. Despite these efforts, however, an array of factors continues to hinder effective communication in many companies. Although this topic has received considerable attention in the literature, most of the articles are restricted by their limited approach concerned primarily with the effect of various methods. Manufacturing is an integrated system covering everything from order receipt through to the product shipment (Hitomi 1991). It covers a wide range of activities in many functional areas including planning and design, purchasing, production, inventory, distribution, marketing and sales. Realising the importance of such an approach, this study proposes a model to improve on-time response to customer through business process model integrating two common processes involved in manufacturing planning, control and execution cycle for MTO situations and a database for supporting various functional applications through basic and transaction data. The proposed model was implemented through Group Intellect Power Technology Ltd. The rest of the paper is organised as follows. First, a review of the company background as well as current problems that company is facing. Next, the proposed improvement solutions are presented, followed by a section on a systematic investigation of the on time response problems and implementation of the solutions to overcome the problems in Group Intellect Power Technology Ltd. Finally, research findings and conclusions are drawn
