Healthcare Division of Siemens AG Upgrades Supply Chain Planning
System to Improve Response to Dynamic Data Changes on Multiple
Continents
Demand Management, Inc., a leading global resource for
cloud-based supply chain management solutions, announced today that
Siemens Healthineers, the separately managed healthcare business of
Siemens AG, has gone live on Demand Solutions DSX. The
implementation will support more than 50 users in North America,
South America, Europe, and Africa.
Headquartered in Erlangen, Germany, Siemens Healthineers enables
healthcare providers around the world to meet their challenges in
any environment. The company offers products and services in
diagnostic and therapeutic imaging and in laboratory diagnostics
and molecular medicine.
A Demand Solutions DS1 user since 2007, Siemens Healthineers
wanted to upgrade to a solution that would more effectively support
its supply chain planning team which is distributed across four
continents. The company evaluated Demand Solutions DSX alongside an
SAP solution before selecting DSX.
“We were looking for a highly reliable supply chain planning
system that could respond to dynamic data changes,” says Joanna
George, senior manager of global demand planning and processes,
Siemens Healthineers. “The users who participated in the evaluation
preferred Demand Solutions DSX because of its flexibility and
breadth of functionality.”
Siemens Healthineers also appreciated the Demand Solutions
team’s willingness to collaborate in implementing expiration date
planning functionality. Siemens Healthineers hopes this
functionality will help the company significantly reduce its
expired inventory costs.
“We appreciate the opportunity to help Siemens Healthineers
address the challenge of expired inventory around the globe,” says
Bill Harrison, president, Demand Management. “We rebuilt our
platform because we wanted it to be flexible enough to support
specific business requirements and scalable enough for deployment
across continents. We’re excited about the cost reductions Siemens
Healthineers can achieve with Demand Solutions DSX.”
