Another Significant Step Forward 027 083 B 2 B platforms: large quantities of information This information can be useful for external service providers Customers and suppliers can get benefits by connecting/ integrating external service providers to the same platform that they use for B 2 B communication, and… External service providers can get benefits, too, of course, and so … FLUID-WIN aims to create conditions to allow external service providers to connect to B 2 B platforms: B 2(B 2 B) Réka Moksony Copyright by FLUID-WIN Consortium 2006 MLE-Central Loco Budapest, 22 FEBR 2007

Where to Look for Significant Added Value 027 083 The 3 rd millennium major key objectives sound to be: COST CUTTING Major effect: migration of complex manufacturing activities to Far East This implicates for tier-1 s a dramatic turnabout with respect to the effort spent in the last 10 years in flexibility achievement Also, East Europe allows cost cutting, thanks to reduced labour cost, but with less constraints with respect to the Far East (especially logistic- financial) So we look for significant added value in full integration (customer - part suppliers - service suppliers) within cross-old-Europe-new-Europe manufacturing networks Copyright by FLUID-WIN Consortium 2006 Réka Moksony MLE-Central Loco Budapest, 22 FEBR 2007

Two Critical Processes 027 083 Logistics: rarely Web-based in “old” Europe manufacturing networks (suppliers are close…. . ) Financing: consolidated procedures, no added value in Web-based management in “old” Europe manufacturing networks cross-old-Europe-new-Europe manufacturing networks Significant added value: flexibility is possible together with cost reduction, but a full network integration is mandatory.

Extended Supply Network 027 083 Manufacturing network from a FLUID-WIN point of view is a network constituted by a prime contractor and a group of its suppliers; the prime contractor manages the suppliers through a B 2 B application where at least orders, transportation documents and invoices are managed FLUID-WIN network is a manufacturing network plus Ø Logistic service providers that provide transportation/ warehousing services among prime contractor and suppliers Ø Banks and other financial service providers that give services to the companies within the network Copyright by FLUID-WIN Consortium 2006 Réka Moksony MLE-Central Loco Budapest, 22 FEBR 2007

Focus and Constrains 027 083 FLUID-WIN provides information services between the prime contractor or supplier and the involved logistic services provider • Business rules have to be determined in contracts • Supporting collaboration among logistic service providers • Trust building among parties is the key issue in case of cross border businesses The great challenge is the integration of the logistics and financial services without installing thousands of peer-to-peer relationships.
