Overview

The company faced challenges with real-time visibility, leading to inventory imbalances and high operational costs. Inefficient service levels negatively impacted OTIF performance, while last-minute adjustments increased shipping expenses. To address these issues, Aligned Automation implemented predictive analytics, data quality management, and automated workflows for better asset tracking. The solution enabled real-time decision-making, optimized inventory levels, improved OTIF delivery, and reduced overall costs through enhanced data-driven insights and scenario-based planning.

Challenges

  • High operational costs: High inventory and holding costs, along with increased shipping expenses due to urgent shipments
