97 Kinaxis Testimonials

"Jabil has been growing right along with Kinaxis over the last two decades. We started using the platform’s S&OP capabilities about seven years ago, but more recently, we’re using the platform for order visibility and also exploring additional capabilities available in the Kinaxis Maestro platform."

“RapidResponse provides us with an abillty to determine cut-in dates on engineering changes, and obtain an enterprise-level capacity model.”

“Our focus is on making sure the balance of power sits with our customers, rather than with the multitude of partners they could be dealing with in their networks."

“With Kinaxis, we can manage all visibility and logistical activities via a dedicated control tower. Having a single platform for all pickup activities (forecast, proposal, etc.), as well as network integration and optimized routing, booking and delivery means that we have our finger on the pulse of our customer’s supply chain and can take immediate corrective action."

“Because of the success of this project, we were able to establish a strong partnership with the client. Pleased with our performance and confident in our ability to optimize operations, they recently awarded us additional business to manage the transport and distribution for their new National Warehouse in France."

"We always look for solutions that save costs and add value, such as consolidating orders for one particular customer, consolidating orders across several customers, or redesigning a customer’s supply chain."

“It requires a very slick solution that allows people, systems, and processes to, in cohesion, meet one demand. And that one demand is the customer service level agreement."

"Kinaxis, in collaboration with AI Institute for Advances in Optimization (AI4OPT), is exploring how the fusion of machine learning and optimization may bring a step change in capabilities for the next generation of supply chain management systems."

“We do more than 30 million orders per year. How do you capture data to put it into your forecasts? How do you convert those forecasts into a supply plan, then convert that supply plan into an execution plan, fulfillment, logistics, transport, warehousing, order management?”

"We produce a car every 45 seconds. Where the supply chain can break is that it’s not all centered around a 5 kilometer radius. It’s a global supply chain with many parts and many suppliers.”

"It all comes together seamlessly and flows like magic. Having Kinaxis as our only MRP engine has helped a lot because it’s our single source of truth platform, and it gives us an accurate plan within minutes that we can confidently share with our customers."

“Our ERP didn’t quite meet our needs, not to mention that we were paying additional infrastructure costs for software licensing and maintenance.”

“Customization takes time and requires a number of resources, and we wanted to implement the tool as soon as possible. We also wanted the system development expertise to reside with the vendor we selected rather than dedicating our own resources.”

“We didn't have a great measurement of these three areas before Kinaxis. Now we have a very robust way of measuring and viewing our progress in those areas across all of our global sites.”

"Kinaxis is a long- term collaborative partner for Jabil. We use their solutions and algorithms extensively, so adding DOTS’ capabilities made sense.”
