Award Honors Dairy Brand’s Supply Chain
Transformation Initiative to Support Strategic Growth and
Geographic Expansion
Logility, Inc., a leading provider of collaborative supply chain
optimization and advanced retail planning solutions, is pleased to
announce Tillamook County Creamery Association has received the
prestigious 2019 Velocity Award (Photo). Presented at the 2019
Velocity Conference, the award highlights a company that has
demonstrated exceptional innovation in its effort to implement a
digital supply chain initiative that significantly improves
operations and creates a platform for growth.
Tillamook, an Oregon-based dairy producer, operates in a
capital-intensive industry with multiple manufacturing and
co-manufacturing sites across the United States that serve its
domestic and international markets. The company initiated its
supply chain transformation initiative to gain end-to-end
visibility and create a platform for dynamic business growth. To
succeed, the Tillamook team established a strong foundation for
digital supply chain planning and growth: a robust planning
platform with expanded visibility and analytics to monitor key
performance indicators (KPIs) and make proactive adjustments as
needed. The supply chain team developed new processes, instituted
advanced education and training for the stakeholders and
implemented Logility Voyager Solutions™ as the platform for digital
supply chain optimization.
“Tillamook has a rich and storied history of offering the
highest quality dairy products available to consumers,” said
Michael Bever, executive vice president of operations, Tillamook
County Creamery Association. “Our strategic growth plans require
greater visibility and a flexible platform for both digital and
operational supply chain success. Logility has been a key partner
in support of our long-term goals and we look forward to new
opportunities in the future. We are honored to receive this
recognition for the Tillamook team’s hard work to ensure every
customer is able to enjoy our quality products.”
Tillamook manufactures in multiple locations with many
distribution points which requires precise visibility into demand,
supply and inventory. Since the start of the project, Tillamook has
achieved impressive results including a 25 point increase in
forecast accuracy, up to 99 percent fill rate and up to a 75
percent decrease in finished goods inventory for cheeses. This
enhanced level of visibility allows Tillamook to identify new or
expanded distribution opportunities and quickly take advantage of
them. In addition, the team is better able to turn multiple sources
of information into actionable insights that drive the company’s
sales and planning activities. Through the use of advanced
analytics, the supply chain team is now able to focus on
higher-value issues that align with corporate goals and deliver
exceptional product quality and service.
“Tillamook has transformed its supply chain into a platform for
rapid growth and differentiation in a highly competitive market,”
said Allan Dow, president, Logility. “We congratulate Tillamook on
their digital and operational supply chain transformation and the
tangible benefits they have achieved to help drive success, support
the company’s strategic expansion and drive greater customer
service.”
