Case Study: Oshkosh Corporation achieves supply chain visibility and cost savings with Exiger

Oshkosh Corporation improves supply chain visibility over 80% with Exiger

Oshkosh Corporation, a manufacturer of specialty vehicles, was facing a significant challenge with the manual and inefficient administration of its supply chain program for carbon steel plate. Their JLG business unit was struggling with unstructured communications, unreliable data, and an inability to gain actionable insights into material consumption, which drove up administrative costs. They engaged the vendor Exiger to help solve this problem.

Exiger implemented its SDX platform and a proprietary process called Part Attribute Characterization (PAC) to normalize and structure vast amounts of part data. This provided Oshkosh with unprecedented visibility and control over material requirements across its extended supply chain. The solution from Exiger yielded substantial results, including establishing control over 80% of network spend, a 10-20% improvement in forecasting accuracy, and streamlined automated processes that reduced administrative overhead and generated significant cost savings.
