GarudaFood expands JDA supply chain footprint

JDA Software has announced that GarudaFood, a leading Indonesia snack food and beverage manufacturer has extended its JDA footprint to take its supply chain processes to the ‘next level’.

Its current JDA Demand and JDA Fulfillment with JDA Enterprise Supply Planning will give GarudaFood the ability to optimise its inventory plans in real-time and re-plan around supply chain disruptions as conditions change.

PT Kualitas Tekhnologi Asia will provide local implementation support for this deployment.

GarudaFood recognised the importance of its supply chain to their business and growth strategy, and working with Deloitte, conducted a study of their existing system and recommended improvements, ahead of their plans to go public.

After the analysis was complete, GarudaFood selected JDA over a large enterprise service provider because JDA had the requisite food and beverage industry expertise combined with the most powerful, end-to-end digital supply chain planning solution.

Teaming with JDA will give GarudaFood a stronger integrated production planning system and bring their previously manual processes to the digital age.

“We are poised to grow our business substantially and in order to fuel that growth and maintain profitability, it is imperative that we deploy a world-class supply planning solution. JDA will help us execute operationally while driving higher levels of customer satisfaction,” said Fransiskus Johny, Managing Director of Indonesia Operations, GarudaFood.

“We chose JDA not only because of its solutions and industry expertise, but because we knew we’d cut down our time-to-value with deploying this project faster. This project will unite critical inventory and demand information for a 360-degree view into supply plans, an important piece we were missing previously.”

GarudaFood has been using JDA Demand and JDA Fulfillment for seven years and needed a more holistic view into production plans than its previously manual processes. With unconstrained plans, they faced a mismatch in production and replenishment plans leading to out-of-stock situations and excess inventory.

JDA Enterprise Supply Planning will help GarudaFood build one globally synchronised plan that senses and responds profitably and quickly to supply and demand volatility, driving increased customer satisfaction and supporting higher profit.
