rtant ponent of business administration, and plays a critical role in improving CAAC’s profitability. Though in the recent years, CAAC has been following the principle of “safety, quality and profit”, and able to achieve sustained, fast, and healthy development, it is fully conscious of the distance between Chinese air transportation enterprises and its advanced counterparts in the world. Financial management, though the key of business management, lags behind. Management measures are out of date, and the financial information used for decisions in enterprises and macrocontrol of General Bureau cannot keep up with business development. The application of modern information technologies is far from sophisticated. In order to change such a situation and make accounting and financial management modern, scientific and standard, the financial sector of CAAC began preliminary preparations from 1995. It finishes the system requirement analysis, at the same time standardizing the industry’s accounting and financial management. In November, 1997, China Civil Aviation General Bureau approved the construction of the system, and in 1998 more than 20 world famous software, hardware and work panies provided solutions to the project. The project office invited experts on finance and information technology from outside and inside the industry to seriously and objectively evaluate the solutions of each provider. The evaluation covered system integration, industry experience, performance of application software, technical platform, strength of tenderer, project risk and investment risk. Head of Finance Department of CAAC mented: “Oracle is a leading software pany in the world. Its finance application software has been adopted by many airlines and airports in the world, thus is less risky. Besides, Oracle has many experts in the field of civil aviation, so it can help improve our management. Oracle is able to provide an integrated solution for civil aviation industry. Its advanced and adaptable technology can support most update information technology, and save capital. Therefore, we choose Oracle to be our partner in constructing financial management information system of CAAC. Finance Information Management System of CAAC was begun at October 1998. First stage has been finished successfully at June 1999. At now, Eastern Airline, Southern Airline, Capital Airport, BaiYun Airport have used the new system, and the second stage has been started. Motorola China A super multinational group, Motorola is one of the Fortune 500. It is a first class producer of wireless munication products, semiconductor devices and electric equipment in the world. Its business reaches the globe. In China, Motorola owns a venture exclusively with its own investment and a holding pany with 7 joint ventures. Motorola (China), as a venture invested by a worldfamous munication producer, needs to introduce an ERP project so as to enhance the efficiency of the enterprise as a whole, realize paperless office and fully utilize its resources. The ERP project should possess plete and perfect functions and be easily implemented. Motorola set up an ERP implementation project, which consisted of experts and personnel from the pany’s financial, manufacturing and marketing departments. This ERP project adopts IMBR5/6000 for hardware and Oracle for database. However, it really made efforts on the selection of key application software. Through several rounds of demonstration and paring of ERP providers’ software programs, Oracle application software came out. Implementation cycle is short for Oracle’s ERP product. Links among different modules are easy and fulfilled automatically. It closely connects the “material flows” and “capital flows” of a pany, and can track and control them. Therefore it typically fits into the pany’s management model and its manufacturing and business size. Fact shows that the project achieves success in implementation. Oracle application system consists of 11 modules, which are inventory (INV), purchase order (PO), material requirement plan (MRP), work in process (WIP), general ledger (GL), account receivable (AR), bill of material (BOM), order of sales (OE), cost (COST), account payable (AP), and fixed assets (FA) Recently, Motorola will establish its North Asia Center in China, which will be in charge of the business of Great China area (including China, Hongkong, Taiwan and Maucau). The center will also bee the financial control pivot of the whole North Asia area. Oracle, with its advanced inter puting ability, will help Motorola North Asia Center fulfil its strategic adjustment of “Accounting Factory”. The fast development of market offers opportunities to enterprises. How to grasp the opportunities to survive and develop in fierce petition is a mon problem faced by every enterprise. The cooperation between Motorola and Oracle in ERP system brings efficient modern information management. Huge capital investment enjoys high return. It fully demonstrates Motorola’s foresight and sagacity. China Tele China Tele (CTHK) is the major telemunicator in China. Its typical character is to operate the fast developing telemunication in China’s fast developing economy. When such a pany considers purchasing and installing an integrated enterprise solution, many related questions must be cared about in the process of installing and executing. These questions have many sides. For example, in current work flows, manual operation and small software prevail, so employers can hardly recognize puter and large application software. Data structures in current system are not integrated, and many current systems are not run on the basis of integration. What is more, work flows and related business programs will greatly change with changes in places. Every question w
