Bonar Floors implements TXTPLAN to build on the success of TXTDEMAND

Milan, 11th June 2008 - Bonar Floors selects SCM solutions from TXT e-solutions to target Supply Chain integration and to optimize processes that will deliver increased end to end efficiency across the supply chain.
 
June 12, 2008 - PRLog -- Bonar Floors a £100 million European flooring manufacturer has selected TXTPLAN to expand their Supply Chain Management (SCM) solution which already includes TXTDEMAND; both solutions are from the Global Supply Chain Management solution vendor TXT e-solutions.

TXTPLAN part of the TXTPERFORM SCM suite will target production efficiency by enabling Bonar Floors to significantly optimize production plans and better support meeting customer service targets. The integration with the forecast and demand planning capabilities of TXTDEMAND will create real value, with an accurate demand and supply alignment and improved cross-functional collaboration as part of the Sales and Operations Planning process.

Bonar Floors' move of some product lines to a 'Make to Stock' business model is part of a continuous improvement strategy to further boost already impressive service levels. In addition, this approach combined with TXTPLAN’s inventory planning and optimization functionalities will ensure the right safety stock policies are in place in all 3 European factories whilst at the same time reducing inventories and providing visibility of stock turn variances.

“The implementation of TXTDEMAND just over a year ago has helped our business by giving us a great platform to really improve our demand planning, budgeting and forecasting capabilities. Extending the solution to TXTPLAN was the next logical step as not only will it improve our production planning allowing us to have better control over safety stocks but it also ties in well with TXTDEMAND creating a new level of transparency and collaboration between functions that I believe will be highly beneficial to the company going forward.” says Andy Hall Operations Director at Bonar Floors.
