Personal Care デジタルブレイン

A multibillion dollar global maker of skin care, makeup, fragrance, and hair care products serving 150 markets, with iconic brands.

This customer had highly Excel and manual-driven supply and demand planning activities, which relied largely on the personal knowledge of each planner. They did not have any master production planning capabilities focusing on operational and strategic horizons.

サステナビリティへの貢献

Reduction of waste due to a decrease in overproduction and avoidance of expedites.

業務範囲での課題

Manually Intensive Planning

There were difficulties with pulling a consolidated demand picture on a timely basis. This was mainly due to dependency on frequently required manual interventions to estimate the effect of promotions, marketing and new product introductions and a high dependency on spreadsheets.

o9の支援

With o9, they obtained full visibility over their demand picture on an automated single integrated, cloud-native platform.

Material and Capacity Planning

Supply planning/scheduling in APO SNP
and PPDS was primarily a sequential planning process where each stage of the manufacturing network was planned one after the other and material constraints were not integrated.

o9の支援

With o9, a concurrent material and capacity constrained plan (manufacturing and distribution) was enabled, ensuring an integrated, more feasible and better executed plan.

Demand Forecasting

There was a lack of the inclusion of
promotions and product launches in the demand forecasting process.

o9の支援

With o9, new product launch calendars are maintained directly on the platform. This provides a 360 degree view of the forecast in units and dollars, considering internal, and external drivers of demand.
