Milliken SOPS
During a 14 month project in partnership
with the Milliken IS team, JK-UK were involved in helping
with the movement of processing of information from a stand-alone
Microsoft Access, used at a newly acquired site, to the AS/400,
used by their other sites across Europe.
The new SOPS system dealt with all the order
processing, stock allocation and invoicing requirements that
the old stand alone system had done. However there where concerns
that managers would not have the same level of reportability
that was given by the easily, user generated reports in MS
Access.
To allow for this a seperate application
was used, BRIO. This allowed for simple read-only access to
the AS/400 file system, which would allow for simple user
report setup and queries.
JK-UK were involved in all aspects of the
projects design, development, installation and support. This
has allowed for a much greater understanding of project management
and development within large organisations.
