Serving a specialty and commodity market, chemicals supply chains are caught between the uncertainties of global demand and the push effects resulting from the various batch, campaign, and continuous or semicontinuous production flows. Assets must be used to their full potential.
There are tough challenges in the consumer goods industry. Competition is fierce, margins are tight, and product life cycles are getting shorter. Demand is volatile, phase-ins and phase-outs must be managed, asset utilization must be optimized, and DC networks must be balanced.
The life sciences supply chain is in a constant flux. Pharmaceutical companies are constantly engaged in making the right products in the right way at the right time. They need to orchestrate all operations, from chemical synthesis or biological fermentation through drug product manufacturing, packaging, and distribution.
Paper and plastic film markets are evolving, leading to volatile demand dynamics and evermore complex manufacturing challenges. Campaigns need to be tuned to demand, balancing the mix of operations and optimizing cutting and trimming plans.
