Case Study: a Fortune 100 global aerospace equipment manufacturer achieves improved delivery rates with Exiger SDX

Fortune 100 Global Aerospace Equipment Manufacturer improves on-time delivery from 40% with Exiger

A Fortune 100 global aerospace equipment manufacturer was struggling with a 40% on-time delivery rate for machined forging parts. Their challenge stemmed from managing critical supply chain data on Excel spreadsheets, which prevented them from reconciling data across business units and suppliers. They had low visibility into the component parts and raw materials in their supply chain and lacked insight into the causes of delays. The company engaged Exiger, utilizing its SDX visibility and analytics platform, to address these issues.

Exiger's SDX platform non-destructively mapped a full Bill of Material for over 54,000 forging part numbers, establishing end-to-end visibility and full traceability from finished assemblies back to raw materials. This solution provided the client with proactive analytics, enabling them to forecast material requirements, manage supply chain risk, and ensure on-time delivery. The impact included insulating the supply chain from volatile raw material costs, reducing lead times, and providing the data needed for mills and distributors to anticipate demand correctly.
