Enabling Supply Chain Efficiency for a Dairy Company
Client

📦 Client

A century-old U.S.-based dairy cooperative with $2B+ in annual sales, this company operates 13 processing plants and distributes products nationwide and globally. With two main divisions—Ingredients and Consumer Products—it manages millions of gallons of milk daily. Despite evolving market pressures, it continues to adapt and grow through operational scale and resilience.

Challenge

🧩 Challenge

Due to the perishable nature of dairy products and fixed commodity pricing, the company faced challenges with supply variability, real-time product mix optimization, and high-speed distribution. Outdated legacy system and Oracle 11i systems couldn't support key needs like traceability, lot control, and FIFO. Manual processes increased costs, prompting a shift to modern, agile systems.
