MAPAL集团的数字化进程

Moritz Mäurer先生深入浅出地介绍了数据对象分析师的日常业务

当第一批草图按照DIN标准-结构进行构建时, Mäurer先生就已经做好了准备;当企业已经获得运营支持时,他仍然在那里。在产品的开发方面,Moritz Mäurer先生遵循整体研究的方式。

“我们有机会,与世界各地的所有同事和综合能力中心进行交流,从而对准则方针和产品结构进行定义,”Moritz Mäurer先生不无自豪地描述着他的工作的魅力以及所承担的责任。Mäurer是一个真正土生土长在玛帕集团人。他是在阿伦(Aalen)总部完成了自己的职业培训,之后在加工部门工作了几年,最后他决定继续接受机床技术的继续教育培训,立志成为一名技术员。时光荏苒,算来他已经在公司工作了十多年,目前负责主数据管理工作。在其核心任务中,最特殊的是企业单据中的变量配置。在此框架内,意义越来越重要的一个子领域当属主数据-管理。置于上一层的是,怎样使得企业运行的重要对象能够获取更高的数据品质,这一点对于运行中的处理流程是必不可少的。

“MAPAL is still small enough so that almost everyone knows everyone. You’re not just a number in the system. For me, it’s just the right mix of innovative global corporation and family-run medium-sized company.”

Putting missing puzzle pieces together

How would you describe the workflow in day-to-day business? As a rule, two people work on a configuration, Moritz explains. The variant configuration including classification is already included in the SAP standard, which makes communication much easier. In collaboration with Product Management, the Data Object Analyst defines the procedure and the goals. He forwards the resulting tasks to the respective departments. “We often use UI scripting, as there is little opportunity to re-set configurations en masse”, says the analyst. One of the difficulties is to include existing products in the configuration. For this purpose, he is in regular contact with various departments. He talks to the Design department, to the Work Preparation department and works closely with the Sales department. Working together with all the departments to put together the missing pieces of the puzzle needed to configure the product is always a challenge, but it’s a great boost for team spirit, says Moritz.

Not just a number in the system

The positive working atmosphere is probably also a decisive reason why the Data Object analyst has sworn loyalty to his employer for over ten years now: “MAPAL is still small enough so that almost everyone knows everyone. You’re not just a number in the system. For me, it’s just the right mix of innovative global corporation and family-run medium-sized company.” When Moritz thinks back to when he first applied to work at MAPAL, his enthusiasm is palpable: “In my experience, MAPAL was the company from Aalen where everyone wanted to work, even back in my school days. And nothing has ever changed for me in that respect.”
