Rapid integration of
back-office systems and asynchronous messaging with Infrared360®
Parker Hannifin is a manufacturing company that has doubled in size in less than a decade, growing from $6 billion to $13 billion in sales partly through a strategy based on acquisitions of companies around the world, each with its own back-office system.
Parker's challenges
Among Parker’s challenges, a major one was the rapid and smooth integration of systems from the acquired companies to ensure more efficient and customer-focused operations. Another critical issue was the adoption of asynchronous messaging, which was critical to avoid the propagation of dependencies between systems, thus reducing the risk that a problem in one isolated system could compromise the entire business ecosystem. This approach required an effective messaging monitoring and management platform.
