Case Study: NXP achieves continuous forecast improvement and a single source of truth with DELMIA Quintiq

Unlocking the value of continuous forecast improvement with DELMIA Quintiq

NXP Semiconductors, a global leader in secure connectivity and mixed-signal solutions, faced an overwhelming forecasting challenge: 20 demand managers had to manage over 100,000 customer–product forecast combinations across multiple currencies, forecast versions, discounts and price erosions, with data scattered in spreadsheets and daily recalculations that delayed decision-making. The legacy planning system provided no effective decision support, visibility or a way to combine and evaluate different forecast inputs, preventing continuous improvement and a single source of truth for sales, operations and demand teams.

NXP implemented DELMIA Quintiq Demand Planner as a single integrated platform to centralize data, provide immediate feedback on forecast changes, and combine statistical and collaborative inputs. The solution uses segmentation to surface where attention is most needed, speeds up comparisons and integrations with other systems, and streamlines workflows between sales and operations. As a result, NXP now delivers higher‑quality forecasts, reduces data‑gathering effort and safety stock, improves responsiveness to market cycles, and gains better visibility and collaboration for more profitable decision-making.
