Case Study: Aurubis AG achieves faster, more transparent supply chain planning with Board

Accelerated supply chain planning and purchasing simulation at Aurubis

Aurubis AG, a global non-ferrous metals supplier and major copper recycler, wanted to modernize its supply chain planning because its previous process was manual, slow, error-prone, and heavily reliant on Excel. Working with Board, Aurubis set out to improve transparency, integration, and speed across planning and purchasing so it could react faster to market disruptions and better manage complex raw material requirements.

Board implemented the Board Intelligent Planning Platform to connect planning modules, centralize data, and enable fast simulation and scenario analysis for purchasing, production, S&OP, and inventory planning. The result was up to 80% faster and more precise planning, improved collaboration, reduced inventories, better liquidity and earnings, and quicker, more informed decisions that strengthen supply chain resilience.
