The global HealthTech company, with over 35 manufacturing facilities worldwide, faced a significant challenge due to its complex IT landscape. The company's growth, both organically and through strategic acquisitions, led to a scattered supply chain data across various ERP systems. This complexity hindered the company's ability to gain crucial business insights and answer critical questions such as prioritizing product lines or SKUs, identifying 'lazy inventory' in the supply chain, and optimizing inventory allocation across distribution centers. These challenges became even more critical during the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly for the company's respiratory ventilator products.

The C3 AI team addressed the inventory visibility challenge across the company's respiratory ventilator products. In just four weeks, they configured the C3 AI Supply Network Risk application for 42 critical ventilator SKUs. The team unified disparate supply chain data on the C3 AI Supply Chain Digital Twin and configured five dashboards on the C3 AI Supply Network Risk application to provide end users with a global real-time view across the supply chain. After resolving the visibility challenge, the team configured machine learning algorithms and the application logic to predict order lead times and OTIF (on-time in-full) delivery risks for over 10,000 SKUs. The C3 AI Supply Network Risk was successfully configured and deployed into production in collaboration with a cross-functional team across the HealthTech company and C3 AI.
