The webinar is focused on Dr. Schär as an example of an Antifragile Supply Chain. Headquartered in Italy, Dr. Schär leads the market in gluten-free foods, offering a wide range of products for special dietary needs. With over 1,750 employees globally, the company operates 18 sites in 12 countries, boasting 12 production plants and 26 distribution warehouses, delivering to over 100 countries worldwide.
During the Covid Crisis, Dr. Schär faced considerable demand and supply variability. The supply chain team at Dr. Schär was able to thrive in the midst of this uncertainty thanks in part to the digital supply chain transformation that had just been completed. With all the supply chain planning activities digitized with ToolsGroup, and with the help of the advanced machine learning and probabilistic capabilities within the platform, the team was able successfully plan sales forecasts, fulfillment, and replenishment for every SKU at every location, along with rough and finite capacity planning.
With the redesign of the Supply Chain Planning process Dr. Schaer was able to increase order fill rates by 1.5%, improve forecast accuracy by 3%, and enhance freshness upon shipment by 1.8%. Despite a larger product mix, heightened variability, and increased volumes, Dr. Schär has managed to optimize their inventory performance.
The webinar will explain the digital supply chain transformation journey of Dr. Schär and the impact this transformation had on supply chain performance and resiliency during a crisis. We will delve into the strategies employed by this esteemed Italian pioneer in gluten-free foods, as they revolutionized their production planning and distribution processes to thrive while facing intense supply and demand uncertainty.
We will explore how Dr. Schär boosted efficiency and improved inventory performance with ToolsGroup's Supply Chain Solution, experiencing impressive results: higher order fulfillment rates, improved forecast accuracy, and fresher deliveries. Through Dr. Schar’s success story, we will discover how to build a resilient Supply Chain and optimize Inventory Management.
