公司简介
With a worldwide reputation for product quality, customer service, and minting technology, the Royal Canadian Mint (RCM) is at the forefront of innovation in producing currency. Its business lines include Canadian and foreign circulation coins, numismatic coins (for collectors), gold and other bullion investment products, and refining. The RCM is a leading producer of coins for foreign countries with approximately a one-third share of the world market. A commercial Crown corporation of the Canadian government, the RCM has over 700 employees and facilities in Ottawa and Winnipeg.
The Challenge
RCM management sees its business not simply as producing coins, but rather as competing in the micro-payment market with pre-paid cards, transit tokens, and the many other ways to conduct transactions. It continually seeks to drive innovation to stay at the forefront of this fast-paced global market. The RCM must quickly develop many innovative numismatic products for both seasoned and potential coin collectors. Frequently, new products need to be developed very quickly in order to provide collectors with products that are associated with special events.

The RCM chose CATIA V5 and ENOVIA SmarTeam, and an information technology architecture based upon Microsoft® Server Product Portfolio to accelerate the pace of innovation. RCM engineers use CATIA V5 to design new coins, tools, and packaging. Multiple departments across the RCM use ENOVIA SmarTeam and SQL Server to automate the Mint's complex quoting process and product development workflow.
益处
- 50% less time for quotations (time needed to produce foreign currency quotations has been halved).
- 425% more new products introduced (number of new products introduced up from from 8 to 42).
- 75% reduction in time required to design new coins and tooling thanks to CATIA V5 parametric modeling (design reuse).
- Dramatically lower total cost of ownership thanks to Microsoft Dynamics AX ERP system which ws almost half the cost of Tier 1 alternatives over five years.
