Maclean Power Systems Optimizes Supply Chain Operations with Oracle Fusion Cloud

The Client

MacLean Power Systems (MPS) is a leading manufacturer of insulator components and related products, serving electric utilities, telecommunications, and civil markets.

MPS is running JD Edwards EnterpriseOne as their back office ERP solution.

MPS partnered with Terillium to implement Oracle Fusion Cloud to modernize their supply chain operations.

MPS project drivers:

  • Provide accurate and reliable delivery dates at the time of order entry.
  • Optimize order backlog management, especially during high-demand periods like storm orders.
  • Enhance forecasting accuracy and supply chain efficiency.
  • Integrate real-time data for dynamic decision-making.

The Challenge

MPS faced significant challenges in managing their order fulfillment and supply chain processes. The company struggled with inconsistent delivery date accuracy, manual interventions to prioritize and manage order backlogs, difficulty balancing routine orders with high-priority demands, and inefficient demand forecasting and resource allocation.

Terillium implemented Oracle Fusion Cloud across seven facilities providing MPS with:

  • Reliable delivery dates at order entry to enhance customer satisfaction.
  • Accurate demand forecasts to align production and inventory.
  • Improved visibility into inventory, capacity, and lead times to optimize resource allocation.

Our Solution

Terillium leveraged it’s Amplify framework providing pre-built integration between JD Edwards and Oracle’s Fusion Supply Chain Applications.

The implementation of Oracle Fusion Cloud delivered significant business benefits for MPS:

  • Accurate customer delivery dates
  • Streamlined processes to manage high-demand periods effectively.
  • Improved forecasting
  • Minimized waste and manual effort through automation.
  • Lower inventory carrying costs and reduced reliance on expedited shipping.
  • A scalable solution to support future growth and demand fluctuations.
  • Improved planning for unexpected events like storms.
Terillium’s expertise in Oracle Fusion Cloud has been a valuable asset in enhancing our supply chain strategy. Their collaborative approach ensured alignment with our operational goals and long-term vision.
