Abstract

One of the companies’ challenges is to develop the strategic fit between the supply chain and its
functional plans: marketing, operations, human resources, and finances. This case focuses on a
company that produces polyethylene terephthalate packaging for the beverage industry, with more than 15 years in the Latin-American market. The main problem was identified through the best practices of different methodologies: the cause-effect tree diagram, the value stream mapping, material requirement planning, sales and operations and integrated business planning. This problem has been restricted within the inventory management, which has the longest delivery and response time. Finally, the company improved inventory turnover, enhanced the manufacturing quality, eliminated the "island effect" and generated the whole impact in the value network.
