A global technology conglomerate faced significant challenges due to its highly complex and manual process for planning servers and networking equipment for its global data centers. This fragmented system, which relied on tools like Smartsheet and Anaplan, resulted in issues with on-time delivery, inventory misalignment, and a lack of scalability. The company turned to o9 Solutions, Inc. to implement its AI-powered Digital Brain platform to address these issues.

o9 Solutions implemented its platform to create a seamless integration between forecast consumption, material planning, and capacity planning. This provided a user-friendly planning experience for over 800 users and delivered reliable signals to upstream suppliers. The solution enabled the conglomerate to improve forecast accuracy, optimize multi-tier inventory, and transform its response time to market volatility from weeks to hours, ultimately supporting improved on-time delivery and cost reduction.
