A ToolsGroup Case Study
The consumer products company, ConsumerCo, faced the common industry challenge of needing to improve customer service levels without causing inventory costs to skyrocket. To address this, they partnered with vendor ToolsGroup to implement its inventory optimization solution, which was integrated with their existing SAP APO system.
ToolsGroup's solution provided an analytics engine that calculated optimal safety stock and inventory targets across ConsumerCo's multi-echelon network. This process, which ran daily, enabled a strategic, customer service-driven approach to inventory management. The results were significant, including multi-million dollar savings and improved service levels, which led to a successful global rollout of the ToolsGroup solution across all major business segments.
