A Blue Yonder Case Study
Shanghai PepsiCo, a beverage manufacturer serving Shanghai and southern Jiangsu, China, faced the challenge of balancing fast-changing demand with production, inventory, capacity, and logistics constraints. Its planning team was overwhelmed by the volume of real-time data needed to manually create the best production sequence, making it difficult to consistently meet sales, financial, and service goals.
Blue Yonder, working with partner PwC, implemented Order Sequencing within Blue Yonder Production Planning to use real-time supply chain data and automatically optimize production order sequences. The result was improved demand matching, reduced inventory and production changeover costs, and consistently high order fill rates (OFR), helping Shanghai PepsiCo increase efficiency and reduce waste.
