Manufacturer builds for the future with cloud-based supply planning
Accurate demand forecasting and supply planning are essential for any organization with a global footprint and complex supply chain. As recent global events have demonstrated, supply chain disruptions can occur with little warning, making it necessary to have contingency plans and mitigate risk as much as possible. Our client, an electronic components manufacturer, recognized the inherent risk of operating without a fully integrated and comprehensive demand and supply planning platform. Looking to completely revamp its existing system to create more accurate supply-demand forecasts and consistently provide customers with the materials they need when they need them, the company reached out to Inspirage for help.
From the outset, our client was committed to implementing a supply planning and customer reserve capacity solution hosted in the cloud. Company leaders wanted to begin transitioning all enterprise applications to the cloud, but they were also hesitant to make any sweeping changes to core platforms like the organization’s enterprise resource planning (ERP) system. Planning applications presented an ideal opportunity to embrace the cloud since such a move could deliver a significant return on investment while minimizing potential risk. Moving individual applications to the cloud in this fashion would help prevent any unforeseen operational disruptions.
