Case Study: Mettler Toledo cuts inventory and improves service with Intuiflow from Demand Driven Technologies

Mettler Toledo cuts missing parts 75% with Demand Driven Technologies

Mettler Toledo, a Swiss-American leader in precision instruments, faced plateauing performance across its 20 global plants. Despite using SAP, its forecast-heavy planning led to flat on-time delivery, declining inventory turnover, and decreasing forecast accuracy. The company partnered with vendor Demand Driven Technologies to explore a solution using Intuiflow's demand-driven planning to replace its traditional MRP approach.

Demand Driven Technologies implemented its Intuiflow platform, which utilizes Demand Driven MRP (DDMRP), across Mettler Toledo's global operations. The solution provided real-time visibility and intuitive dashboards, allowing planners to manage by exception. The results were significant, including global stock availability exceeding 99%, inventory reduced by tens of millions of dollars, and a drastic reduction in missing parts. The vendor's tool also introduced AI-driven buffer optimization and simplified production scheduling with color-coded priorities.
