Case Study: SHARK achieves better S&OP planning and supply chain performance with Board

Improving Sales & Operations Planning efficiency at SHARK Navigating a changing world by making the most accurate projections at all times

SHARK, the global motorcycle helmet manufacturer, faced major S&OP and supply chain planning challenges caused by complex international sourcing, long lead times, and unreliable medium-term forecasts. To improve decision-making and better anticipate supply, production, and inventory needs, SHARK turned to Board and its Intelligent Planning platform.

Board implemented a flexible S&OP solution that connected sales, manufacturing, finance, and logistics, with modules for demand forecasting, inventory distribution, production capacity planning, and scenario analysis. As a result, SHARK improved planning efficiency, strengthened cross-functional collaboration, and gained the ability to react faster to changes while avoiding overstocking and shortages.
