From Supply Chain Strategy Development to System Implementation and Operation
Achieving a 15% Improvement in Production Plan Compliance and a 20% Reduction in Inventory

On April 24, SK C&C announced that it will offer a "Comprehensive Digital Supply Chain Management (SCM) Consulting Service Specialized for the Manufacturing Industry" in collaboration with its digital consulting organization, Accerton Partners.


Accerton Partners provides SCM consulting services based on empirical data accumulated through projects carried out with manufacturing companies, including SK affiliates. By combining this with SK C&C's expertise in building digital systems, the two companies plan to support all processes of SCM.

Accerton Partners conducts a comprehensive review of key areas such as strategy, processes, organization, and personnel, identifying bottlenecks in the system. In one case involving a domestic manufacturing client, a four-week assessment resulted in the identification of more than eight improvement tasks. After consulting, the client improved its production plan compliance rate by 15% and reduced total inventory by up to 20%.


After the assessment, the client's operating environment is analyzed to design an optimized structure for Supply Chain Planning (SCP) and Supply Chain Execution (SCE). At the same time, a Sales and Operations Planning (S&OP) system is also established to ensure that demand and supply are organically aligned. Through this, clients are equipped with a "digital control tower" that enables real-time monitoring of supply chain conditions and informed decision-making.


SK C&C will also advance SCM by renewing supply chain systems. Clients will be able to integrate and manage not only demand forecasting and planning but also production, procurement, and logistics execution plans that take into account shipment volumes and profitability, all within a single system.


In addition to AI-based demand forecasting technology, SK C&C plans to link automation technologies across all operations to create a structure in which SCM and systems operate organically.



Choi Jinmin, Managing Partner at Accerton Partners, stated, "With growing uncertainty in global supply chains, SCM has become a digital core foundation for sustainable corporate growth. We will actively leverage digital technologies such as AI to integrate supply chain data and provide actionable consulting so that clients can experience real change."
