Case Study: Equans gains control over consumables and returns with Slimstock Slim4

Equans boosts service level to 99% with Slimstock

Equans, a leading technical service provider, faced challenges managing its vast inventory of consumables and rented tools after rapid growth. With thousands of items and control spread across hundreds of Excel sheets, stockouts were frequent. To gain insight and optimize its supply chain, Equans partnered with vendor Slimstock to implement the Slim4 supply chain platform.

Slimstock worked with Equans to develop a pioneering solution within Slim4 to manage complex rental and return flows for tools, alongside optimizing inventory for consumables. The results were significant: the service level rose to 99%, stockouts were greatly reduced, and a better stock balance was achieved. This gave Equans greater control over costs and its rental fleet.
