Case Study: Ocean Lanka achieves 20% productivity rise with Coats Digital's FastReactPlan

Ocean Lanka boosts productivity by 20% with Coats Digital

Ocean Lanka, Sri Lanka's largest weft knitted fabric manufacturer, faced challenges in meeting overwhelming customer demand and optimizing machine capacity. Managing inter-departmental capacities with numerous spreadsheets led to poor visibility, low efficiencies, and high work-in-progress inventory. Coats Digital's FastReactPlan was implemented to address these production planning hurdles.

The solution from Coats Digital, FastReactPlan, allowed Ocean Lanka to prioritize and manage activities to meet increasing demands, which improved coordination and reduced lead times. This resulted in a 20% rise in productivity and a 33% increase in daily production output, significantly boosting machine capacity utilization. The company maintained on-time delivery during a period of high growth and gained improved operational flexibility.
