The Challenge:

Substantial improvement in the visibility of inventory… improved customer service and lower inventory levels.

NEC

Optimum assisted NEC Electronics in the implementation of PeopleSoft’s full Financial, Distribution, and Supply Chain product suites. Joining the project in progress, Optimum’s JumpStart methodology was crucial in establishing the momentum and structure that led to the project’s success.

Benefits Realized:

NEC realized dramatic improvements to its key business processes, including a substantial improvement in the visibility of inventory and, for the first time, access to real-time available-to-promise data. With the implementation of PeopleSoft’s Supply Chain Management solution, NEC greatly enhanced its planning and forecasting capabilities leading to improved customer service and lower inventory levels.

Key elements of the final solution were the performance enhancements designed by Optimum, which were crucial in delivering the system performance required by NEC.
