Channell | Manufacturing | 800 | $320M | United States | IBM | IBM Planning Analytics (powered by TM1) | EPM | 2018 | Draca International |
In 2018, Channell implemented IBM Planning Analytics (powered by TM1) to establish a centralized EPM capability for planning and inventory management across its manufacturing operations. The deployment was conducted with IBM Business Partner Draca Solutions and targeted the company’s two U.S. plants in Temecula, California and Rockwall, Texas, where five discrete manufacturing processes require coordinated material and capacity planning.
The implementation combined IBM Planning Analytics Express, leveraging its in-memory analytical engine, with IBM Cognos Analytics for flexible reporting and visualization. Configuration work focused on product classification into finished goods, work-in-progress and raw materials, automated bill of materials generation for metals jobs, and the creation of reporting models that track inventory status for more than 9,000 finished goods items. These modules were used to instrument nested bill of materials analysis and to shorten planner workflows that had relied on spreadsheet-based processes.
Operational integration included extraction of transactional and inventory data from the company’s ERP systems to feed Planning Analytics models and Cognos reports, enabling planners to cross-check component requirements against current stock and to estimate lead times. The solution supported planning workflows that touch production scheduling, materials procurement, logistics and distribution planning, and provided data inputs for human resource and plant maintenance scheduling.
Governance and adoption emphasized enablement, Draca Solutions delivered onsite training sessions at the Rockwall plant and trained a cohort of power users to cascade knowledge across the organization. The rollout prioritized planner-facing reports and self-service analytics, shifting routine manual reporting tasks into governed Planning Analytics and Cognos processes while maintaining IT oversight of model updates and data refresh schedules.
Explicit results reported by Channell include faster analysis that reduces planner time spent on manual reporting, deeper insight into materials requirements that helps prevent project delays, and improved clarity on lead times to enable smarter resource deployment and plant maintenance planning. The deployment also supported more systematic logistics and distribution coordination by providing predictable readiness dates for packing and loading operations.

International Medical Corps | Non Profit | 9000 | $230M | United States | IBM | IBM Planning Analytics (powered by TM1) | EPM | 2021 | n/a |
In 2021, International Medical Corps implemented IBM Planning Analytics (powered by TM1) as a centralized analytics platform. The deployment targeted planning and reporting within the EPM category to consolidate disparate spreadsheets and separate reporting systems and accelerate decision making for emergency response and financial planning.
IBM Planning Analytics (powered by TM1) was configured to support advanced financial forecasting and planning workflows, with Cognos TM1 cubes used to model patterns in donations and awards and IBM SPSS Statistics applied for predictive modeling of incident locations and resource needs. The implementation emphasized centralized data entry into a single portal, automated consolidation of operational and financial data, and user-friendly dashboards to shorten time to insight.
The solution components include Planning Analytics, Cognos Analytics, and SPSS Statistics integrated within the IBM Analytics stack to provide combined financial, operational, and predictive views. Operational coverage spans finance, field operations, and emergency coordination, enabling doctors, coordinators, and first responders to access dashboards both online and offline on tablets, and supporting customized dashboards for specific crises such as the Ebola response.
Governance and process changes focused on centralizing reporting, eliminating manual spreadsheet consolidation, and reducing the number of separate operational reports, with a roadmap to build a command center unifying key dashboards. As reported by IMC, the centralized IBM Analytics platform delivers information rapidly to decision makers, empowers first responders to act on real-time information, and shortens disaster response timelines to improve care delivery.
