General Mills
Customer profile
General Mills is a major food manufacturer with 7
manufacturing plants, each using HP 3000 systems running in-house
developed manufacturing software.
Customer need
To automate 9 distribution warehouses using a UNIX
based application written by a warehouse management consultant.
Open 3000 solution
& benefits
$3M plus deal with 19 Series 9x7 systems to replace
current MPE V systems.
Easily ported the UNIX application to the HP 3000
and was up and running in production in 3 months.
Excellent price/performance, protection of existing
investments, smooth growth path, and strong remote systems management
facilities through OpenView Manager.
General Mills was poised to install 9 UNIX systems,
but switched to the HP 3000 after hearing the HP 3000 Open Systems
strategy delivering portability and interoperability benefits today.
HP MSR packaged goods sales force was focused on
ensuring the success of this project.
