A SIMUL8 Case Study
NIBCO, a leader in flow control solutions, faced the challenge of validating a new supply chain distribution strategy before implementation. They turned to the vendor SIMUL8 and used its simulation software to test this new approach risk-free.
Using SIMUL8, NIBCO created a model of its supply chain to test how inventory changes would affect distribution. The simulation provided the confidence to implement the strategy, which resulted in a 40% reduction in inventory and a 12% cut in total systems costs, with actual results matching predictions within 1 percent.
