Up to this day in the manufacturing industry we have introduced ICT (Information and Communication Technology) and made efforts for operational efficiency and cost reduction. However, regarding the computer processing in the plants, there remain many operations that require assistance from someone else and that do not add any value to the products. This is due to the insufficient coordination between the systems left behind. In this paper the contemporary problem concerning the current system coordination occurring in the manufacturing industry is abstracted and described. Referring to the system cooperation problem from an academic point of view, I examined the Global SCM (Supply Chain Management) system that has actualized completely seamless and real-time processing not only within this company, but with the overseas base and supplier as well. As the problem of system cooperation in the manufacturing industry is very profound, I focused on the Global SCM system, developed and implemented by Fujitsu Frontech Limited, as the concrete solution.
