Case Study: BIOTRONIK achieves transparent plant-wide planning and optimized supply chains with valantic wayRTS

Biotronik cuts scrap by 50% with Valantic

Biotronik SE & Co. KG, a world-leading medical technology company, faced challenges with its complex supply chain planning using SAP MRP. Their planners lacked transparency, simulation capabilities, and uniform planning rules, leading to error-prone manual processes in Excel and high inventories. To address this, Biotronik selected valantic's advanced planning and scheduling (APS) software, wayRTS.

The solution implemented by valantic involved using wayRTS to provide real-time scenario simulation and AI-assisted optimization, which integrated with Biotronik's SAP system. This provided transparent, plant-wide planning and helped coordinate product changes across global facilities. The results included a 50% reduction in scrap influenced by planning, optimized inventories, reduced capital commitment, and more efficient use of production capacities.
