Client Challenge

A leading automotive manufacturer required specialist Blue Yonder (formerly JDA) expertise to support and optimise its global supply chain planning environment.

The client required two experienced Techno-Functional Consultants with deep knowledge of:

  • Enterprise Supply Planning (ESP)
  • Sales & Operations Planning (S&OP)
  • Supply Chain Planner Optimizer (SCPO)
  • Inventory Optimization (IO)

The requirement was particularly challenging due to the niche skillset needed. Consultants had to possess both functional supply chain planning expertise and technical Blue Yonder configuration capabilities.

JS3 Global Solution

Leveraging our specialist ERP and Supply Chain network, JS3 Global successfully identified and deployed two highly experienced Blue Yonder consultants who matched the client’s technical, functional and commercial requirements.

  • Supporting custom-configured Blue Yonder ESP and S&OP environments
  • Providing Inventory Optimisation support
  • Conducting detailed root cause analysis
  • Supporting solution design, testing and deployment
  • Producing functional and technical documentation
  • Advising business stakeholders on process improvements
  • Supporting integration with the wider IT landscape

Results

Successful Long-Term Engagement

What began as a contract support requirement evolved into a highly successful long-term partnership. Both consultants remained with the client for over three years.

Reduced Operational Risk

The consultants provided expert support across critical planning applications, helping the business quickly resolve issues and minimise disruption.

Enhanced Supply Chain Planning Capability

Through ongoing optimisation and support, the planning platform continued to meet evolving business requirements.

Cost-Effective Specialist Delivery

By sourcing highly skilled resources from cost-effective delivery locations, JS3 Global enabled the client to access specialist Blue Yonder expertise while maintaining budget control.

Outcome

This engagement demonstrates JS3 Global’s ability to source and deliver niche ERP and Supply Chain Planning specialists in highly competitive markets.

By providing two experienced Blue Yonder consultants who remained embedded within the organisation for more than three years, we helped the client maintain and enhance a business-critical planning environment while reducing risk and supporting long-term operational excellence.
