Current Situation
Production is set up according to delivery requirements and lean inventory schedules.
Goals and Objectives
Maximize product line uptime, control assembly variability/offerings, improve inventory resilience, avoid paid furloughs/layoffs/attrition, and maximize profits.
Technology Deployed
Hardware: Servers, storage, and IoT
Software: Big Data/analytics, machine learning, cloud, SCM, MES, and ERP
Services: IT services and connectivity services
Use Case Summary
Product manufacturing quickly adapts to supply constraints and product lines support modularity, flexibility, inventory optimization (tied to profits), and incomplete/partial assembly (delayed completion).
