Case Study: Cabot Creamery achieves improved forecast accuracy and reduced production waste with John Galt Solutions' Atlas Planning Suite

Cabot Cheese Implements Atlas Planning Suite

Cabot Creamery, a cooperative of 1,200 dairy farm families operating four plants and selling cheese nationwide, faced fragmented forecasting: no statistical modeling, limited visibility across orders, shipments, forecasts and budgets, and an inability to forecast by customer. These gaps drove production waste, unsaleable product and unnecessarily high expenses. To address this, Cabot selected John Galt Solutions and its Atlas Planning Suite.

John Galt Solutions implemented the Atlas Planning Suite (easy to configure with a compressed 3‑month rollout) and worked with Cabot to refine processes, delivering exception reporting, new-product/event/promotion forecasting and regression analysis. The result was markedly improved forecast accuracy and executive reporting, better capacity planning, and significantly reduced inventory carrying and unsaleable product costs—delivering tangible bottom-line savings for Cabot Creamery.
