Case Study: Leading Aerospace Manufacturer achieves faster, more collaborative factory operations with Pelico

From the Parallel Universe of Spreadsheets to the Collaborative Management of Factory Disruptions

The customer, a leading aerospace manufacturer, faced significant operational challenges in its factory due to frequent supply chain disruptions like part shortages and late supplier deliveries. These issues caused delays, high stress among teams, and difficulty in coordinating across seven different departments, all of whom were relying on siloed data and inefficient spreadsheets. To address this, the manufacturer partnered with Pelico and its supply chain operations management platform to streamline collaboration and improve factory performance.

Pelico implemented its platform in an iterative approach, starting with production controllers and expanding to multiple teams. The solution provided real-time data, dynamic planning tools, and a collaborative escalation room, which enabled faster, data-driven decision-making. The results were substantial, including an 18% reduction in work-in-progress, a 50% reduction in logistics cycle times, an 80% improvement in team productivity for data analysis, and decisions made five times faster.
