Customer satisfaction is valued
Nissan Motor Corporation
Nissan Motor Corporation Limited is a top Japanese automaker. They produce low cost, fuel-efficient vehicles, the use of high first-class engineering tools. For production simulation and design, Nissan’s engineers use high-priced Computer Aided Drafting and Engineering (CAD, CAE) software applications.
To enhance commercial enterprise processes, Nissan investigated Open iT as a solution in order to reduce software license prices without compromising projects/jobs. Just by metering software usage, they were capable to take away unused licenses, and get greater control over new software investments.
Challenges encountered
This Fortune Global 100 business enterprise had been in the manufacturing commercial enterprise for a lengthy time, and had accumulated numerous IT assets. As the corporation grew, increased numbers of employees required more software. The numerous software licenses received led to higher operating costs, mostly dueto additional software apartmentprices and increased maintenance expenditures.
The present IT machine used a computerized software license counting process, where a log file was once mechanically scripted. The CAD and AE applications streamlined the job with the aid of uniting the script that automated the whole processing of the log. However, it took two to three days to analyze each module in detail. Too much time and work used to be required to manage and reveal software program license usage rates.
Open iT, a success!
Open iT was once selected as software metering answer due to the fact it possessed the useful capability and reliability needed, and high customer support provided by Daikin Industry. After a six month trial period, Open iT was completely installed and integrated by March, 2006. Open iT metered license usage at Nissan’s Technical Center, their Design Center, and the Yokohama factory. Software usage was metered frequently, and the data was processed quickly by the Open iT server located at Nissan headquarters.
Results
An important part of Nissan’s business plan included improving user efficiency. Based on experience from past operational results, executives decided that detailed analysis of IT usage reports would not only improve usage rates but could be used to improve user efficiency as well. Open iT’s reports were available for all users, and showed actual usage data including each application’s hourly and daily usage. Visualizing and communicating usage rates resulted in greater user awareness of wasteful practices, and of the need for increased efficiency.
