Case Study: S-One scales global inventory and improves forecast accuracy with Demand Works' Cloud Smoothie

Global Distributor of Printing Products Scales with Smoothie

S-One, a global distributor of specialty paper and printing supplies with more than 150 employees across five business units and operations in 22 countries, was managing thousands of items across 42 global stocking locations (over 8,000 unique SKUs). After a NetSuite OneWorld rollout, S-One needed a best-in-class forecasting and inventory optimization tool to control complexity and support rapid growth, so they selected Demand Works’ Cloud Smoothie (a SuiteApp-integrated forecasting and inventory optimization solution).

Demand Works implemented Cloud Smoothie integrated with NetSuite to deliver weekly demand forecasts and multi‑tier replenishment planning that handles transfers between subsidiaries and countries. The solution improved forecast accuracy and inventory visibility—helping S-One confidently position the right materials at the right time, manage millions of dollars of inventory across 42 locations, and scale planning for continued growth.
