Case Study: STEMCELL Technologies achieves 95% service levels and 25% lower inventory with Demand Driven Technologies' Intuiflow

STEMCELL Technologies boosts service levels to 95% and cuts inventory 25% with Demand Driven Technologies

Stemcell Technologies, a global supplier of reagents, tools, and services for scientific research, faced significant challenges in maintaining service levels due to rapid growth and a complex supply chain with thousands of SKUs and variable shelf lives. Their forecast-driven systems introduced variability, causing service levels to lag. To address this, they partnered with Demand Driven Technologies and implemented its Intuiflow Materials Planning solution.

By adopting Intuiflow's Demand Driven Operating Model, Stemcell Technologies integrated the platform with their ERP and quality systems to gain real-time visibility. This solution enabled them to strategically position inventory and synchronize operations. The results were substantial: service levels improved from 88.6% to 95%, on-hand inventory was reduced by 25%, and fixed planning horizons were shortened by 11 days, all without increasing operating costs.
