The Efficiency Improvement Tactics Of Huawei Server Storage Project

Huawei,the world's leading provider of information and communication infrastructure and intelligent terminals,provides customers with competitive,secure and reliable products in communication networks,intelligent terminals and cloud services.It is the world's largest storage producer and supplier and its predominant project is server storage,which let the company achieve its zero breakthrough in European market.Products of this project include: blade servers,rack servers,storage servers,hard drives,disk arrays,etc.In this context,improving market core competitiveness is Huawei's top priority.Taking Huawei's storage projects as the research object,this paper uses lean production theory analysis to continuously find the way to improve the company's business,so as to promote these projects' quality and efficiency,shorten their cycles,and reduce their costs and risks,improving the efficiency of server storage project while perfecting management,all of which then rise the company's core competitiveness.This paper analyzed the issues resulting in low efficiency of R&D and production of server storage project,which include the company's management status,unreasonable algorithm of faulty hard disk,production line management and equipment,and made a further analysis on issues which affects the efficiency of storage management.First,identify the causes making storage projects inefficient.Then,use 4M1 E analysis tools,brainstorming method and 5Why analysis method to find out major reasons affecting Huawei's equipment management,mainly comprising cumbersome subscription procedures and a long procurement cycle of spare parts,lack of spare parts,long equipment downtime and so on.Finally,based on the formulation and implementation of measures under lean production including process optimization,production line management,equipment renewal,5S management and test forward,this paper establishes a systematic 5S management system and production line visual management.The research thereof would enable Huawei to reduce equipment failure rate and equipment maintenance costs continuously while improve overall equipment efficiency and reduce operating costs,so as to enhance its competitiveness.In general,through in-depth research on manufacturing efficiency and quality improvement in storage projects and in light of the idea of lean production,implement the TPM equipment management system to deeply analyze the problems affecting the inefficiency of storage projects,define problems and explore the causes and then clarify them.At the same time,strengthen production line management and continue to implement lean improvement ability training and atmosphere construction through the establishment of a lean continuous improvement management organization.By this way can the company ultimately improve its efficiency of storage projects and,meanwhile,realize the optimization of the company's operational performance,which enable it to remain invincible in the highly competitive communications market.
