[Φ-Pilot Implementation Case] Fujirebio Inc.

This is an example of promoting business efficiency and labor saving through the introduction of a system dedicated to supply and demand management, resulting in the reduction of waste and stockouts.

We would like to introduce a case study of the implementation of the "Φ-Pilot Series" at Fujifilm Revio Co., Ltd. Creating supply and demand management materials using spreadsheet software requires an enormous amount of effort, making the streamlining of operations and the elimination of dependency on specific individuals urgent tasks. The lack of transparency in supply and demand information among the sales, planning, manufacturing, and logistics departments posed challenges, leading us to aim for improved management accuracy to reduce labor, eliminate dependency, and minimize the risks of stockouts and waste. We began considering the introduction of a "supply and demand management system capable of managing inventory by expiration date and lot." The concept of the Φ-Pilot Series, which allows for "flexible system construction by combining necessary modules," matched our needs for systematizing complex supply and demand management tasks, and the feasibility of the proposed solution was the highest, which ultimately led to our decision. It is currently functioning as an information infrastructure used by approximately 100 people in total. About six months after the system was implemented, we achieved a "50% reduction in working hours (140 hours/month saved)" and reached "the lowest stockouts/waste in the past five years." Moving forward, we will continue to promote the "advancement, efficiency, and acceleration" of operations as the "control tower for supply and demand management."
