A AIMMS Case Study
La-Z-Boy, a global leader in residential furniture, faced the challenge of optimizing its North American manufacturing and supply chain network to support long-term growth and manage a significant spike in demand. To address this, the company sought a robust and analytical approach to network design and selected AIMMS Network Design software to model scenarios and inform strategic decisions.
Using the AIMMS solution, La-Z-Boy was able to holistically model its manufacturing capacity and supply chain to design a more optimal network. The software provided the ability to run scenarios and assess the impact of changes from both a cost and service perspective. As a result, AIMMS helped guide critical decisions on capacity expansion in the US and Mexico, ensuring they were consistent with a long-term plan and improving the company's strategic agility.
