ALL ARTICLES

Our project followed a structured Analyze – Optimize – Implement framework:

1. Data-Driven Demand Forecasting

  • Analyzed spare parts consumption data to identify patterns
  • Developed a predictive model using Palantir Foundry for demand forecasting
  • Applied machine learning algorithms to differentiate between fast- and slow-moving parts
  • Improved accuracy of spare parts demand prediction

2. Supply Chain Process Optimization

  • Optimized reorder points and safety stock levels, reducing unnecessary inventory
  • Established automated alerts for critical stock levels, preventing service disruptions

3. Implementation & Change Management

  • Integrated dashboards to provide real-time supply chain visibility
  • Conducted training sessions for supply chain managers on the new forecasting system
  • Defined a long-term governance model to ensure continuous improvement

Impact
  • Reduction in inventory costs through optimized stock levels
  • Increase in spare parts availability, reducing stockouts
  • Enhanced supply chain transparency via reporting dashboards

This project provided the client with a scalable, data-driven supply chain strategy, ensuring efficient operations and better service reliability.
