A Blue Yonder Case Study
Mahindra & Mahindra’s Spares Business Unit, part of the $20B Mahindra Group and serving global automotive and tractor markets, was losing sales to stockouts and carrying high inventory costs while managing 100,000 SKUs across 21 distribution centers with manual, Excel-based planning. The SBU needed greater responsiveness and availability to serve variable demand and long lead times.
By deploying Blue Yonder’s Luminate Planning—scientific forecasting, multi-echelon inventory models, integrated automated data exchanges and machine learning—the SBU improved forecast accuracy and replenishment decisions. Results included a 10% increase in service levels, 40% faster customer response times, a 10% revenue uplift, and reduced excess inventory and obsolescence.
