Arlanxeo Switzerland	Manufacturing	30	$5M	Switzerland	SAP	SAP IBP	Advanced Planning and Scheduling	2017	n/a	In 2017 ARLANXEO Switzerland implemented SAP IBP as its Advanced Planning and Scheduling solution to establish an integrated business planning capability across its HPE and TSR business units. The deployment focused on creating a single planning backbone to support global production planning and asset utilization while embedding volume and pricing into demand signals to enable margin-aware sourcing decisions. The implementation configured SAP IBP to support cross-functional IBP workflows, including demand and supply reconciliation, master planning and scenario-based sourcing planning. A dedicated IBP team in Switzerland was established to own master-planning processes and to collect and analyze integrated supply and demand information, with the team producing recommendations for functions to balance short and long term supply, demand and inventory. Operational architecture moved toward SAPs newer cloud-capable planning capabilities, with the program aligning IBP to a global production footprint spanning operations in 11 countries. Integrations emphasized synchronized supply and demand data feeds and the extension of planning outputs to operational execution, including plans to connect order checking to an app with GPS and to enable traceability across the supply chain. Governance paired the IBP team with cross-functional decision forums to translate plan outputs into sourcing and production actions, and the process was externally validated by EY for combining volume with value. The rollout roadmap targeted companywide platform convergence by the end of 2020, and governance measures included talent development such as an 18 month rotation for supply chain staff to support process adoption and multi-national people management challenges.
