Building an Antifragile Supply Chain: Dr. Schär’s Climb to Inventory Excellence
Headquartered in Italy, Dr. Schär leads the market in gluten-free foods, offering a wide range of products for special dietary needs. With over 1,750 employees globally, the company operates 18 sites in 12 countries, boasting 12 production plants and 26 distribution warehouses, delivering to over 100 countries worldwide. During the Covid Crisis, Dr. Schär faced considerable demand and supply variability. The supply chain team at Dr. Schär was able to thrive in the midst of this uncertainty thanks in part to the digital supply chain transformation that had just been completed. With all the supply chain planning activities digitized with ToolsGroup, and with the help of the advanced machine learning and probabilistic capabilities within the platform, the team was able successfully plan sales forecasts, fulfillment, and replenishment for every SKU at every location, along with rough and finite capacity planning. With the redesign of the Supply Chain Planning process Dr. Schaer was able to increase order fill rates by 1.5%, improve forecast accuracy by 3%, and enhance freshness upon shipment by 1.8%. Despite a larger product mix, heightened variability, and increased volumes, Dr. Schär has managed to optimize their inventory performance. The webinar will explain the digital supply chain transformation…

Building the New Manufacturing Workforce
As strategic forces push manufacturing back to America, one obstacle threatens progress: finding the right people with the right skills. Before new factories can produce anything, they must be built—requiring a new generation of skilled tradespeople such as electricians, welders, and technicians. And once these modern facilities are operational, companies report an unexpected challenge: the biggest talent gaps aren’t just technical, but also in core soft skills like leadership, critical thinking, and communication. Join Supply Chain Now hosts Scott Luton and Allison Giddens as they welcome Alan Amling and Darrell Edwards from the University of Tennessee–Knoxville to explore a practical approach to developing a comprehensive workforce from the ground up. Learn what it truly takes to build, staff, and sustain the next generation of American manufacturing.
