A Slimstock Case Study
Megger, a 130-year-old electrical testing and maintenance equipment specialist, faced growing complexity in inventory management as it moved toward a make-to-stock model. Relying on spreadsheets alongside its SAP ERP proved insufficient, so Megger engaged Slimstock and implemented Slimstock’s inventory management solution, Slim4, to modernize demand forecasting and inventory control.
Slimstock deployed Slim4 to automate demand forecasts, optimize safety stock and support Megger’s S&OP process, yielding measurable gains: improved forecast accuracy and visibility, S&OP preparation time cut from up to seven days to two, and finished-goods availability increased from 75% to 90%. Slimstock’s solution also reduced panic buying and lowered manufacturing inventory while enabling Megger to track and continually improve forecast performance.
