Full Credential Description
DuPont faced significant challenges in its supply chain management due to a series of global disruptions, including international trade disputes and the COVID-19 pandemic. These events created volatility that left Chief Supply Chain Officers struggling to maintain operational efficiency. With a vast of scientifically engineered products essential for various industries, DuPont required a rapid, low-cost solution to enhance its supply chain planning capabilities. The company needed a digital platform that could provide scenario-based insights into materials availability, demand fulfillment, inventory, and costs, particularly for its $5 billion Mobility and Materials (M&M) division. To address these issues, EY developed a customized digital planning platform known as the Supply Chain Cockpit. This platform was designed to facilitate "what-if" scenario modeling, allowing DuPont to make informed business decisions even in unpredictable environments. The EY team collaborated closely with DuPont leadership to create an integrated business planning system that eliminated blind spots for global supply planners. The Supply Chain Cockpit integrates over 15 supply chain and financial factors, enabling planners to analyze multiple scenarios simultaneously. This system enhances visibility across product lines, optimizes procurement, and improves overall supply planning practices. As a result of implementing the Supply Chain Cockpit, DuPont's M&M division was able to distribute over 1,000 products more effectively. The platform allowed for the testing of over 20 scenario options each month and continuously analyzed more than 75 supply chain locations. Up to 30 planners and core team members were trained on the new tool, which significantly improved planning efficiency, consistency, and predictability. This proactive approach to supply chain management not only ensured that essential products remained accessible to consumers worldwide but also positioned DuPont to better navigate future disruptions.
