Case Study: a leading tire manufacturing company achieves increased customer service and lower EMEA inventory with Bluecrux APS support

Creating a central production planning organisation supported by APS selection

Bluecrux worked with a leading tire manufacturing company, whose business is primarily tires with a smaller diversified products segment, to address the need for better customer service and lower EMEA inventory. The company was looking for a way to improve planning across its operations, and Bluecrux supported the program through process, organizational, and tooling redesign, including APS selection.

Bluecrux helped the company create a central production planning organization and implement APS capabilities to strengthen planning execution. As a result, the customer maximized use of multisourcing options to improve demand fulfillment, increased customer service, and boosted sales, while also supporting its goal of reducing inventory in EMEA.
