Wieland, a global copper and copper alloy manufacturer, replaced multiple legacy planning tools with DELMIA Quintiq to manage complex, rule-heavy production processes. The platform supports scheduling, capacity planning, strategic planning, and routing generation while integrating with existing ERP and MES systems. Planners now use real-time interactive tools and scenario simulation to balance capacity across plants, reduce inventory, and meet customer deadlines.

Key takeaways

Consolidated multiple spreadsheet and legacy planning systems into one scalable platform

Enabled real-time interactive scheduling with Gantt charts and drag-and-drop adjustments

Added routing generation to handle complex product flows and multi-plant capacity balancing

Improved deadline adherence, inventory levels, and production volume through scenario simulation

Supports future expansion into energy and personnel planning for sustainability goals

Supplier and Third-Party Risk Software

This software monitors supplier financial health, screens for sanctions and forced labor exposure, and maps supply networks below tier one. Its value rests almost entirely on the quality of the data underneath it, which is the part buyers examine last. The interface is not the product; the data sources are.

Transportation Management Systems

A TMS decides and executes how freight moves. A visibility platform only observes movement already underway. A 3PL running managed transportation is an operating model, not a different kind of software. These three are routinely confused in the same evaluation, and the confusion is getting worse as vendors on each side move into the others' territory.

Supply Chain Visibility vs Traceability

Visibility tells you where something is now. Traceability tells you where a specific lot came from and where every unit of it went. They require different data, cost different amounts, and are triggered by different pressures: operations and customer service on one side, regulation and recall on the other.
