Nortel increases availability to 97% and improves portfolio management
Nortel is the leading distributor of electrical materials in Brazil. As part of the Sonepar Group, the business is a world leader with operations in over 40 countries. Encouraged by the successful partnership between the French arm of the Sonepar group and Slimstock, the company deployed Slimstock’s Slim4 solution to increase planning efficiency and optimise inventory management processes.
Nortel was looking for a more efficient planning solution to better support the complexity of its operation. With over 50,000 products in stock, the business distributes electrical materials and services to large wholesalers and retailers. Today, the company is present in 14 states, with more than 40 branches and 4 distribution centres. With 800 employees, Nortel generates over USD 200 million in revenue every year.
