Case Study: Jaguar Land Rover cuts supply chain planning time with TigerGraph

Jaguar Land Rover cuts supply chain planning from 3 weeks to 45 minutes with TigerGraph

Jaguar Land Rover (JLR), a global automotive manufacturer, needed to perform timely analysis on how changes to forecast orders would impact its complex supply chain. The challenge was to reduce supplier charges and disruption by quickly understanding these impacts, a process made difficult because the necessary data was distributed across 12 separate and complex sources. The COVID-19 pandemic further emphasized the need for a solution that could deliver answers in hours rather than weeks. JLR turned to vendor TigerGraph and its graph platform to address this.

Using TigerGraph, JLR combined its disparate data into a connected graph model. This solution enabled them to quickly model and evaluate complex supply chain processes. As a result, queries that previously took weeks now take approximately 45 minutes. This acceleration allowed JLR to decrease inventory costs, lower working capital, and achieve greater profitability. TigerGraph provided the speed and flexibility needed for rapid information discovery and reduced supplier risk.
