Mattel to transform supply chain
By Retail Technology | Wednesday March 8 2017
Toy giant Mattel is targeting a digital transformation of its supply chain to efficiently manage demand and create more agility and responsiveness
The company has selected JDA(r) Manufacturing Planning and JDA(r) FlowcastingTM solutions to drive improvements across its end-to-end supply chain processes, including sales & operations planning, demand planning, master planning, factory planning and customer collaboration.
JDA will be working with KPMG to lead the solution design and deployment beginning early 2017, along with JDA Cloud Services to manage the IT environment and upgrade process.
"We chose JDA as our strategic supply chain partner because of the depth of their experience in consumer products and manufacturing, along with their superior capabilities in managing complex global, end-to-end supply chain processes," said Peter Gibbons, executive vice president and chief supply chain officer, Mattel.
