Challenge: A large, global pasta maker needed to analyze their supply chain network to determine where to add another distribution center. The company ships a wide-variety of products from manufacturing locations to multiple distribution centers.

Challenge: As fuel costs, highway congestion and environmental consciousness skyrocket, building a supply chain network that factors in a variety of transportation modes to minimize costs and carbon footprint is critical.

Challenge: Our client, the world's largest marine electronics company, was forecasting nearly 8,000 SKUs with spreadsheets and manual calculations. Updates had to be communicated with our client's Syteline ERP system in order to complete purchase cycles and track on-hand quantities. The time to consolidate and analyze sales forecasts and inventory requirements could take weeks.

Challenge: A manufacturer of high precision machined components was unable to meet the stocking requirements of their largest customer. Though their customer had placed their supply management system online their constant changing of requirements made it difficult for the company to keep pace. Their first option was to create a series of complex spreadsheets to help manage the data. Unfortunately, that process required nearly two hours a day to prepare and despite their efforts stock-outs increased to nearly 50% of managed SKU's.

Challenge: The demand forecasting process looked quite different one year ago compared to the streamlined process that our customer uses today. The company strives to maintain high customer service levels; however, reliance on only "green bar" reports for its inventory planning process caused them to be in constant over or under-stock situations. They needed a solution that could manage seasonality and long lead times ranging from 14 to 135 days, provide effective SKU management, improve fill rates and optimize inventory.

Challenge: Faced with increasing lead times due to international sourcing and cost pressures, while squeezed on the sell side with increasing service pressures, a $200 million US-based home electronics company turned to Demand Works.

Challenge: When a top-tier mobile hydraulics company engaged DemandPoint, they needed to dramatically improve their on time orders to remain competitive in their market.

The client needed to know how long the project would take, how much would the project cost, they needed help leading the initiative, they needed help integrating the new WMS within their existing IT infrastructure, and they needed to understand the work effort required to successfully implement the WMS solution.

Challenge: With over 65,000 employees across 630 facilities managing to ship 50,000 deliveries per year, being efficient and accurate is necessary to maintaining customer service and market share. Along the way, finding new technology to help grow and improve operational efficiency is often desired, but never easy. That's when one of our clients turned to us to utilize our Voice Picking solution to help them maintain order accuracy levels for shipments and to create more flexibility drive efficiency in their 100 busiest DC's.

Challenge: Our client is a large, privately owned wholesaler-distributor of health and natural food products in the U.S. The company was experiencing significantly high labor costs and inefficient distribution and supply chain processes. The client turned to enVista to develop a supply chain strategy to meet its aggressive business goals.
