Case Study: Supply Dynamics achieves real-time supply-chain visibility and material cost reductions with MySQL

Supply Dynamics Delivers BusinessCritical SaaS Solution using MySQL

Supply Dynamics, part of the O’Neal High Performance Metals Group, provides a hosted SaaS platform for Material Demand Aggregation that helps Fortune 100 OEMs (including GE and Honeywell) reduce raw material costs by up to 15% and accelerate product delivery. The company built its service to solve a common industry problem: OEMs lack visibility and control over sub-tier suppliers’ raw-material sourcing, which drives up costs and creates unpredictable part delivery.

Their SaaS integrates with customers’ ERP/MRP/data warehouses (e.g., SAP R/3) to give a real-time, aggregate view of material demand across thousands of sites and suppliers. Using MySQL to store tens of thousands of multi-level BOMs and power high-performance dashboards, Supply Dynamics enables collective negotiation of better prices, lower finished-part costs, improved delivery and shorter cycle times—all in a reliable, low-administration hosted solution.
