capability
OTTAWA,
ON, June 23, 2022 /CNW/
- Kinaxis® Inc. (TSX: KXS), the authority in
driving agility for fast, confident decision-making in an
unpredictable world, has been selected by Carlsberg to create a
harmonized planning process, and improve its commercial agility.
Carlsberg Group is an international brewer based in Copenhagen, Denmark, offering a portfolio of
beer and other beverage brands. The company recognized the need for
end-to-end planning across its supply chain. By selecting Kinaxis'
RapidResponse® concurrent planning platform,
Carlsberg will have the ability to remove disparate systems and
spreadsheets and gain more valuable insight, remove risks, and
improve fast decision making into its supply chain to better serve
its customers.
"We chose Kinaxis because we wanted a solution that was going to
be able to deliver flexibility and agility," said Andrea Takacs, VP of Customer Supply Chain at
Carlsberg. "The RapidResponse platform gives us the ability to
leverage the accuracy of a digital platform while empowering our
planners by removing repetitive and manual tasks to let them focus
their skills on improving operations and customer service."
Carlsberg will leverage the Kinaxis RapidResponse suite of
applications to increase accuracy within demand planning and
inventory management across all of its markets and the agility to
adapt to distribution in real time. Carlsberg will also work with a
Kinaxis System Integrator to enhance value by identifying
actionable insights.
"Through working with consumer product businesses, we've learned
that everybody benefits from a supply chain that removes silos and
drives end-to-end transparency. Planners become more agile and
accurate, and customers become confident that their favourite
products will be there when they want them," said John Sicard, CEO at Kinaxis. "We are pleased to
welcome Carlsberg to our growing consumer products community."
