Nissin Foods Europe optimizes operational planning with Board
Nissin, a fast-growing company in the competitive food market, relies on the Board Enterprise Planning Platform to manage increasing operational planning complexity.
Board International, a global leader in Enterprise Planning solutions, is partnering with Nissin Foods Europe to make operational planning processes faster and more reliable, starting with demand planning.
Nissin, a major international producer of noodle dishes from Japan, is experiencing growth in Europe. More products are being offered in an increasing number of countries, making planning processes considerably more complex. For Nissin to meet growing demand, customer preferences must be incorporated into planning fast to ensure production aligns to demand.
"We were looking for a modern planning solution that would make our operational planning faster and more reliable,” said Carolina Armero, Export Manager & Sales Controlling at Nissin. She continues, “Board convinced us with its flexibility and ease of use. The solution can adapt perfectly to changing needs and for employees it is easy to work in Board — a prerequisite for high levels of acceptance."
Board aggregates all relevant data on its platform and serves as a single point of truth. The goal is to save time in reporting, improve forecasting, and provide more accurate numbers for production. The first project Nissin will fully implement with Board is demand planning for sales. This is crucial for determining which products will be produced in the European plants.
"We are pleased to have partnered with Nissin to deliver our enterprise planning solution," said Jeff Casale, CEO of Board. "Board supports Nissin's growth in Europe and helps balance supply and demand with its planning platform.”
