A Blue Yonder Case Study
Infineon Technologies, a global semiconductor and systems supplier serving automotive, industrial, security and ICT customers, faced volatile demand, long product lead times and the complexity of balancing production across more than 20 facilities. The company’s challenge was to create a single, integrated multidimensional sales & operations planning (S&OP) process to improve global collaboration and enable faster responses to market changes.
Infineon selected Blue Yonder’s S&OP to combine demand forecasting with capacity calculations and constrained production planning, integrating with its other planning tools so demand, supply, capacity and load are synchronized. The solution reduced planning effort by 30%, cut forecasting lead time from four weeks to two, decreased planning errors by up to 90%, reduced forecast adjustments tenfold and improved overall forecast accuracy.
