After the completion of a supply chain diagnostic, a leading manufacturer in the electronics industry was faced with a broad and complex implementation program designed to ensure lasting improvements to supply chain performance.

Together with the client, Prokura conducted a 3-month implementation program dealing with 6 main focus areas:

• Defining new global storage locations and strategy for reducing the number of warehouses
• Developing and implementing a common process and tool for managing inventories.
• Identifying the optimal production strategy and implementing a Kanban scheduling tool
• Developing and implementing a new end-to-end forecasting process
• Designing and implementing a new S&OP process and associated tools
• Design and automation of reporting including structure and measurable KPIs

The integration of new tools and processes has greatly strengthened the client’s supply chain activities and created a solid improvement of their supply chain performance. For example, already after 6 months the level of service to customers improved by 10%.
