Hexion Specialty Chemicals Standardizes on SCC's Zemeter Solution for Global Demand and Inventory Planning
Filed in archive News by ehsan on January 10, 2007
"Hexion has undergone dramatic restructuring and growth over the past year, which has in turn affected the company's supply chain," said Paul Johnson, Hexion's vice president of global supply chain plan processes. "As Supply Chain Consultants supported our increased use of Zemeter for demand planning and inventory control across multiple facilities, Zemeter was the natural choice as a universal platform for Hexion's supply chain management."
Hexion began working with Supply Chain Consultants (SCC) in 2001 when the company was Borden Chemical. In 2005, Borden Chemical merged with Resolution Performance Products LLC (RPP) and Resolution Specialty Materials LLC (RSM) (together with Bakelite AG, which Borden Chemical acquired) to form Hexion Specialty Chemicals, Inc. Zemeter Demand Planner is already being used extensively at the facilities that support the former Borden Chemical customers, and SCC has created additional databases within Zemeter to support the expanded operations of Hexion.
Dominick Corigliano, vice president of sales and marketing at Supply Chain Consultants said, "With the merger of Borden Chemical and several other companies to form Hexion Specialty Chemicals last year, this is a company that is a world leader in its industry. We are pleased that Hexion has chosen to standardize on Zemeter to help its global supply chain run smoothly and efficiently."
Zemeter provides a wide spectrum of product functionality including demand planning, inventory planning, finite
scheduling, production optimization, margin optimization and business intelligence. The Zemeter software suite uses a friendly Microsoft environment, and increases supply chain visibility to help manufacturers gain control of the supply chain and create a strategic business advantage.Permalink: Hexion Specialty Chemicals Standardizes on SCC's Zemeter Solution for Global Demand and Inventory Planning
