Building a resilient supply chain at an industrial manufacturer

Client

$4B industrial manufacturer

The challenge

Pandemic-era stockpiles ballooned inventory by 40% without resolving service issues on critical SKUs.

Our approach

1. Segmentation of 12,000 SKUs and tiered service policies
2. Multi-echelon inventory optimization
3. Supplier dual-sourcing program for top 200 parts
4. S&OP redesign with monthly executive cadence

The outcome

$220M freed from working capital, on-time delivery up 11 points, and stockouts on critical SKUs cut by two-thirds.
