Brief Overview

IKEA is a $22.1 billion global retailer offering home furnishing products of good function and design at more than 235 stores in 34 countries. The retailer relies on JDA's Demand and Fulfillment products to improve its global view of business, achieve cost savings, reduce risk of imbalance between commitments and demand, as well as achieve a more efficient management system. Looking to change its supply chain strategy by cutting back on suppliers and focusing on those located in low-cost countries, IKEA turned to JDA. Read on to discover how IKEA is leveraging technology to support all 12,000 items in its product range, thus ensuring realistic forecasts for planning supplier, warehouse and transportation capacities.

Benefits Include:

• Improved global view of the business

• Cost savings accrued from long-term commitments

• Reduced risk of imbalance between commitments and demand

• More efficient management system
