Story
O'Reilly Automotive did not need another dashboard that nobody opened. It needed plan to produce to move. In the United States, planners and plant leads already knew where supply and production planning went wrong: too many copies, too little ownership, and a close process that waited on the loudest inbox.
SAP Analytics Cloud from SAP is now in that path. SAP is the global leader in enterprise resource planning software, with S/4HANA, business technology platform services, and industry cloud applications. The company treats it as production tooling for plan to produce, which is why planners and plant leads live in it rather than exporting from it once a quarter.
O'Reilly Automotive can show how supply and production planning is handled today. That is the value: a repeatable way to run plan to produce on software the rest of the industry already recognizes.
