Automotive Industry
As auto OEMs and suppliers around the world grapple with issues such as globalization, hyper-competition, pricing pressures and excess capacity, their expectations from their extended supply chains to deliver more has never been so high. As a result, initiatives towards improving operational efficiency, increased collaboration with suppliers and partners in design and manufacturing, strategic sourcing, global procurement have been eagerly embraced by automakers and suppliers worldwide. Through our deep functional knowledge of the automotive industry and our expertise in technologies around the extended supply chain, we have assisted automakers and suppliers in succeeding at several of the afore-mentioned initiatives.

We have done a range of engagements for automotive companies, including:
  • Facilitating Planning and Scheduling for Varied Vehicle Configurations at a global OEM
  • Streamline and standardize the procurement processes for a car manufacturer with the ultimate objective of improving sourcing strategy, reducing procurement cost , compressing cycle time and reducing supplier spend
  • Implementation of SAP system for a large car and tractor manufacturer at multiple locations for 2500+ users

When a global OEM needed to accommodate vehicles with varied configuration in their planning and scheduling process, they turned to Bristlecone. As a result, the client has seen increased supply chain visibility and reduced planning cycle times.
   
Mahindra selected Bristlecone to streamline and standardize their sourcing and procurement processes and implement them using SAP SRM. Bristlecone extended the SAP SRM system to cover scheduling agreements not covered in the standard solution.
