Case Study: Trek Bicycles achieves rapid ROI and global demand & inventory optimization with John Galt Solutions' Atlas Planning Suite

Trek Manages Global Demand and Inventory Process with Atlas Planning Suite

Trek Bicycles, a leading global bicycle manufacturer with hundreds of models and a complex multi‑region supply chain, struggled with frequent new‑product introductions, region‑specific part configurations, long supplier lead times, and a demand/inventory system that had reached its scalability limits. To address these challenges, Trek selected John Galt Solutions and its Atlas Planning Suite to provide a more flexible, scalable global planning platform.

John Galt Solutions implemented the Atlas Planning Suite as a centralized data warehouse and planning interface, enabling flexible grouping, improved exception management, and a streamlined user experience; the system was rolled out to 6 global offices and 12 major business segments. The implementation paid for itself in under one year, allowed Trek to initiate an S&OP process, integrated a new division in under two months, and set the stage for future expansion into capacity and supplier‑level raw material planning.
