Challenge

Companies plan their operations with the leanest inventory stockpile to reduce costs. COVID-19 disrupted the supply chain of a large-scale manufacturer dependent on just-in-time operations.

Solution

RPA was deployed to scan all systems and collect available inventory across the bill of materials (BOM), map it against production volume, and automatically produce a report for program management. This allowed the company to assess stock on hand, match production plans across plants, and prioritize the material movement to ensure all high-priority production plans ran as scheduled.
