Case Study: LIXIL standardizes global manufacturing and improves inventory visibility with Dassault Systèmes DELMIA Apriso

LIXIL standardizes global manufacturing with Dassault Systèmes across 8 plants

LIXIL, a global manufacturer of water and housing products, faced the challenge of standardizing its disparate global manufacturing execution systems (MES) across numerous acquired companies. The company needed a highly flexible MES solution that could accommodate a wide variety of site-specific requirements and production methods while enabling quick development and global deployment. To address this, they turned to Dassault Systèmes and its DELMIA Apriso solution.

Dassault Systèmes implemented DELMIA Apriso, which provided the necessary flexibility to incorporate LIXIL's extensive production know-how and replicate the look and feel of its existing systems. The solution served as the core MES model, enabling uniform manufacturing execution and providing a clear, real-time view of company-wide inventory across multiple sites. This integration streamlined operations, improved inventory management, and laid the foundation for a standardized global manufacturing framework.
