Industrial Equipment Top Performance: Learning from Mitsubishi Caterpillar Forklift America, Inc

Webinar Details

One of the world’s leading manufacturers of material handling equipment embarked on a journey to dramatically improve its supply chain operations. With global operations, volatile economic conditions, and evolving production requirements, Mitsubishi Caterpillar Forklift America (MCFA) sought advice from experts to help reinvent its supply chain and decrease inventory, increase throughput and cut costs.

Are you an industrial equipment industry top performer in material and factory planning?

Aberdeen Group's research in the Industrial Equipment Manufacturing (IEM) industry shows that top performing IEM companies have 13% higher manufacturing schedule compliance and 15% higher on time delivery performance than other IEM companies.  These same top performers are almost 50% more likely to be using demand and forecasting tools and are two to three times more likely to be using supply chain tools of some kind.

Is your business ready to meet the demands of an increasingly complex production environment?

Customer demand changes and shop floor dynamics have a significant impact on one’s ability to meet due date commitment and productivity targets. Without the ability to quickly synchronize factory production plans and material schedules, industrial manufacturers will be challenged to optimally meet changes in demand. Planners and buyers must be enabled with the right solution in order to create efficient material plans that are aligned with factory schedules to enable synchronized material flow through the factory.

What you will gain from viewing this On Demand webinar:

• Learn through a real world example of a company that used material and planning synchronization to be more successful.  See how this global company achieved dramatic results: Reduced component inventory 30-40%, Reduced WIP inventory by 70%, and 50% improvement in throughput time
• Learn how companies in IEM become top performers and benchmark yourself against them.
• Gain more visibility into material and capacity constraints to make better business decisions that minimize risk, increase efficiency and improve agility.
