Cornerstone Building Brands, a leading manufacturer of exterior building materials in North America, has embarked on a strategic initiative to integrate ToolsGroup and River Logic's technologies into its operations. This collaboration is set to revolutionize the company's supply chain design, manufacturing footprint, and planning execution, aiming for a seamless operational flow across its business units.
The initiative will see the implementation of these technologies in two of Cornerstone's business units, Aperture Solutions – U.S. and Shelter Solutions. Christopher Gonzales, vice president of Operations & Supply Chain for Shelter Solutions, highlighted the potential of this partnership to deliver a comprehensive supply chain planning solution. By merging River Logic's supply chain network design and financial analytics with ToolsGroup's demand planning and inventory optimization, Cornerstone anticipates significant improvements in operational efficiency and service levels.
This integration allows Cornerstone to explore various value chain models and assess their impact on inventory and service levels across the network. ToolsGroup CEO, Inna Kuznetzova, emphasized the role of their partner ecosystem in delivering end-to-end supply chain solutions, while Carlos Centurion, President of River Logic, pointed out the synergy between their Value Chain Optimization solution and ToolsGroup's planning capabilities. Together, they aim to unlock Cornerstone's potential for higher financial returns and operational excellence.
For those interested in learning more about these innovative solutions, Christopher Gonzales will share insights during his presentation at the Gartner Supply Chain Symposium in Orlando, Florida. ToolsGroup and River Logic are also offering attendees the chance to book a meeting for a deeper dive into their technologies.
