Zucchetti Digital Supply Chain

From the factory onward, the software solutions make it possible to optimize the inbound flow of raw materials through sophisticated Demand Planning and Sales & Operations Planning tools.

With Advanced Planning & Scheduling software, companies can rapidly and continuously simulate multiple finite-capacity production scenarios, gaining immediate visibility into the impacts on the production plan.

Once production plans are defined, execution begins through integration with awm, the Workforce and Labor Management software. It identifies the appropriate human resources for each function and production cycle, taking into account workloads, skills, and specializations. The setup of production lines is then managed through integration with the MES or MOM (Manufacturing Operations Management) system.

The MES (Manufacturing Execution System) or Advanced Planning software also integrates with the WMS, triggering the warehouse movements required to supply raw materials and components to the production line.

Once the product is completed, the WMS (Warehouse Management System) takes charge of the finished goods and manages all storage, replenishment, picking, packing, and shipping activities within the warehouse.

Inbound and outbound process automation is ensured through Yard Management System software, which reduces driver waiting times in yards by planning vehicle arrivals based on the logistics capacity of each plant, avoiding queues and inefficiencies.

Multilingual kiosks and license plate recognition cameras—or other identification systems—further enhance reception desk operations, enabling fast, real-time communication with all parties involved in the arrival or departure of a truck.

Through integration with the TMS (Transportation Management System), transport planning, route selection, and carrier evaluation are managed to ensure optimal and efficient flows.

Carbon footprint calculation also allows companies to assess the environmental impact of transportation and make sustainability-oriented decisions.

Proof of delivery and transport cost control enable companies to provide customers with accurate, timely service—without compromising their margins.

Artificial intelligence systems optimize all flows along the supply chain, managing anomalies and proposing solutions to enhance the process, making it more efficient and sustainable.

Every phase of the supply chain is continuously monitored through reports and statistics that not only ensure control but also support continuous improvement. This is achieved through an orchestrated, end-to-end perspective that provides data for simulations designed to harmonize the entire production and distribution ecosystem for greater efficiency and sustainability.
