glovia.hub Order Management Solution Reduces Order Processing Time of Fujitsu PCs from Two Days to 10 Minutes.
EL SEGUNDO, Calif - December 10, 2001 - Glovia International, the business-to-business e-commerce subsidiary of Fujitsu Limited, today announced the successful implementation of the glovia.hub Order Management solution at the Personal Computer Division of Fujitsu Limited. The solution allows the company to reduce delivery lead times and provide better customer service in the very competitive PC market.
"Our goal in implementing the system was to get a timely delivery commitment for personal computers from Japan to our sales organizations worldwide," said Toshio Morohoshi, President and CEO of Fujitsu PC Corporation. "Now, the entire order management process, from submittal of the electronic order to the acceptance of the order, all happens within 10 minutes, compared to the previous turnaround of two and a half days."
"The implementation of glovia.hub is the result of a collaborative effort between Fujitsu Limited's Global Business System and Glovia International," said Matt O'Malley, President and CEO of Glovia International. "Thus far, the solution has been implemented at Fujitsu PC Group in Japan integrated with Fujitsu PC Corporation in North America. Because of its early success, Fujitsu plans to accelerate the rollout to its PC sales organizations in Europe and Asia."
glovia.hub Order Management is based on open standards, including XML, thus allowing collaboration between trading partners using disparate systems. This open standards approach enabled Fujitsu to leverage its sales organizations' existing IT infrastructure, including different ERP systems.
The system uses Fujitsu's INTERSTAGE technology which is the infrastructure technology for glovia.hub B2B collaborative commerce solutions.
