Case Study: Pure Encapsulations improves service levels and reduces waste with Slimstock

Pure Encapsulations improves service levels and reduces waste with Slimstock

Pure Encapsulations, supported by its parent company Atrium Innovations, faced the challenge of managing over 2,000 SKUs of shelf-life-sensitive nutritional supplements with a lean planning team. They needed to reduce waste and ensure product availability, seeking a system to make forecasting and supply management more efficient. To address this, they partnered with the vendor Slimstock to implement its Slim4 supply chain planning solution.

The Slim4 platform provided Pure Encapsulations with exception-based management and a crucial shelf-life analytics module, which their existing systems lacked. With Slimstock's solution, the company enhanced supplier collaboration through purchase forecast access and improved its service levels through better safety stock and raw material ordering. The implementation specifically helped reduce waste by predicting and managing shelf-life expiration, enabling the team to meet their objectives effectively.
