POSCO has launched a "big data" system to allow its offices and plants overseas to share information online in real time using mobile devices, the company said Wednesday.


Korea's leading steelmaker said it implemented the integrated process management system, dubbed POSPIA 3.0, which applies to its headquarters in Seoul, two local plants in Gwangyang and Pohang, and also at its steel mill in Indonesia.

The firm added it will try to run POSPIA 3.0 at all of its branches across the world by the end of the year to improve efficiency in the work process.

The world's fifth largest steel manufacturer said the big data system was an integrated system optimized to keep track of manufacturing, sales, marketing, finance and other activities and thus to beef up its global operations.

The systems include Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), Manufacturing Execution System (MES), Supply Chain Management (SCM), and Smart Workplace (SWP).

The difference in office locations makes it difficult to share data when needed, according to POSCO.

"We expect POSPIA 3.0 will innovative our work process, enhancing our competitiveness in the global market," POSCO CEO Chung Joon-yang said in a statement.

A POSCO spokeswoman also said, "It was not easy for us at headquarters in the past to find out about the steelmaking process at the Indonesia plant in real time, but now we can check it out via smartphones or tablets."

The steelmaker will be able to make an optimal decision on its sales strategy based on data collected from its branches, according to POSCO.

The company has updated its strategy on a quarterly basis, but the new network will help it to do so every month, it added.

POSCO also said it can lower its management costs by up to 20 percent with POSPIA 3.0.


포스코 "스마트폰으로 세계 어디서든 업무처리"

포스코가 1일 스마트폰 하나로 세계 어디에서나 실시간으로 업무를 처리할 수 있는 경영 시스템을 가동했다.

포스코는 이날 국내외 제철소, 구매, 판매, 마케팅, 기획, 재무 등 모든 부문에서 일하는 방식을 표준화해 기존 전사통합시스템을 고급화한 '포스피아 3.0'의 가동을 시작했다고 밝혔다.

이 시스템을 이용하면 영업 현장에서 문제가 발생했을 때 스마트 노트나 태블릿 PC 등으로 서울, 포항, 광양, 해외에 있는 업무 담당자와 영상회의를 열어 곧바로 해결할 수 있다고 포스코는 설명했다.

디지털 지도를 통해 해외 수출 제품의 물동량을 마우스 클릭 한번으로 실시간 파악할 수 있다.

포스코는 종전 분기 단위의 경영계획 수립 주기를 월 단위로 줄이고 매달 전 세계 법인장이 영상회의를 열어 생산, 판매, 재고 현황을 보며 의사결정을 할 수 있게 했다.

포스코는 '인도네시아 합작법인 크라카타우포스코에 이어 다른 해외 생산법인과 계열사에도 이 시스템을 확대 적용할 계획'이라며 '재무운영비용의 20% 이상을 절감할 것'이라고 밝혔다. (연합뉴스)
