Implementing a new computer system can have on an organisation for Coca Cola

The risks related to implementing a new computer system

One of the risks of having a new computer system would be that you will have to train your employees on how to use the software which could take a lot of time and money to train each employee and as this is for Coca cola as this company is a multinational company and within a HQ their will be many employees that will need to be trained and some may have different knowledge in that system as so some may take longer to understand. There can also be a chance that some employees may have to go somewhere else to do the training which can lead to you losing members at the workplace and where their needs to be a human interaction may cause less products made to a standard efficiency. This can affect the employees and owners as this can take time and effort time train a huge amount of people.

Also by having a new system may lead to hackers being able to get into your system as its new to you therefore you are unaware if there are any backdoors or other ways other users can get into and steal your data. Or can be from a malicious threat inside the company so they will know that you may not know who to stop attacks which can completely break the server or can create blackmailing threats so that their data isn’t sold to another company so that they know what Coca cola’s future plans are. For this problem this can affect the stakeholders really badly as this maybe be their personal details that where taken therefore this may make them believe that Coca cola isn’t a say place for their details and may leave to join another company like Pepsi or something

The benefits related to implementing a new computer system

One of the main benefits is that no matter how you would chose to host your system you will be able to access it from anywhere in the world. Therefore you are able to offer permission to your trading partners both up and down supply chain. While embedding a modern system within the business this is a good way to reduce the administration workload and increase accuracy, as duplication of effort and transcription errors are dramatically reduced. Therefore this is really important for coca cola as this system can allow them to be able to communicate with other coca cola facilities all over the word as this allows a stronger communication is their stakeholders so that they feel welcome.

As nowadays smartphones and tablets have taken over from PCs as the most common data entry methods you can now access and deliver the data to other users from texts or email and be able to upload them to the cloud and share the work with other google accounts so that they can access them on their phone and tables from home or work due to that this can allow Coca cola to be able to monitor or do work from anywhere that has an internal connection source.

The impact on the organisation that developments in computing

One major technology that Coca cola implemented in 2017 is the coca cola freestyle  which is a machine and app that lets the user create their own tasty concoctions using flavours from over 100 Coca cola brands. With it being a drink dispenser as stated before with being able to make your drink the way you want to. This can be a huge success as it can bring in more customers as some may not like the coke drink but being able to make you own may catch their attention.

One of the main technology that coca cola is known for is back in 2009 the company disrupted the sustainable packaging landscape with the launch of PlantBottle as being the world’s first fully recyclable PET plastic bottle made partially from plants. As from introducing PlantBottle they have allow non-competitive companies to use the technology and brand in their products such as Heinz ketchup and Ford Fusion hybrid sedans. However the CEO James Quincey did announce of a twitter post to sell to their competitors therefore this can allow coke cola to make more money by selling theses bottles to other companies.

Have you ever gotten a Coke so cold it was almost frozen? Well thanks to a technology that coke invented back 2016 the arctic coke which is a machine that lets you choose which product you would like and make it into a slushy so you can have a treat on a nice hot day. This invention has been in coca-cola for 20 years back in 2016 with countless engineers having to tinker with cools meant to produce slushy Coke on consistent basis. Therefore this had a big impact for Coca cola as this allowed them to take a lead over their competitors that probleay never had this idea or got close to replicating what coke has done here.

Impact of emerging technologies such as the Internet of things

IoT in Manufacturing

When you are using Iot in manufacturing it’s called Smart manufacturing which improves the efficiency and productivity of manufacturing operations, which involves retrofitting sensors to existing manufacturing equipment often came with IoT sensors pre-installed. Also it networks a set of devices, robots and machines which can monitor each other, collect information from each other and analyse this information and react to provide smarter and best results. Which avoids interaction required by humans as sensors and connection via internet can gauge what is going on and read it.

Benefits

• Improves efficiency
• Increased productivity
• performance

Therefore this can be very useful for coca cola facilities to be able to remotely monitor what is going on wherever and whenever so when something goes wrong they can come up with a quick simple solution before it becomes a big problem which can cause problems on the production line or the over all profit gained.

Impact of emerging technologies such as the Robotics

Coca cola employees could start working in technology enabled environments where the technology is use to improve processes and assist them doing their daily role, ranging from stow and pick thought to box sizing algorithms, software that determines the shortest, most efficient walking route from one place to another and the SLAM process so it can speed up the packing process and helps ensure accurate deliveries. Here is an example of what part of the SLAM process looks like.

Also with this they can go into the automation robotics as that is when use of various control systems for operating equipment automatically without human help at all therefore this achieves faster production lines creating the products 2x or even more faster then have 10 workers working on a assembly line, less workers= less money to pay them, creates products that a human wouldn’t be able to do or it will take to long form them to do.
