Ultriva Consumption Driven Software Reflects Best Practice Manufacturing Technology
Cupertino, CA, November 02, 2014 --(PR.com)-- Ultriva, the leader in collaborative supply chain solutions, explored a comprehensive review of best-practice manufacturing technology in the company blog. Narayan Laksham, Ultriva’s founder and CEO explained how he applied lean principles to the supply chain processes and developed a solution that triumphs over the traditional Material Requirements Planning (MPR) systems and delivers more value.
Narayan Laksham, founder and CEO of Ultriva explained, “We enable companies to transition from a forecast-driven business model to a demand-driven manufacturing model. Reduction of inventory has become a necessity and not an option in order to survive. The focus has shifted from inventory reduction to right size inventory. Ultriva promotes a consumption driven replenishment methodology, which ultimately means – producing exactly what the customer wants and not what the forecast says.”
Laksham is adept at two things: pattern recognition in a multi-dimensional space and simplifying complex problems. In 1999 and 2000, as he walked through manufacturing floors across different industry segments and attended kaizen events around the world, he quickly saw a pattern of issues ailing the plant floors—excess inventory, non-standard production schedules, and lack of collaboration. Being an outsider with 20 years of experience in databases, CAD/CAM systems, application infrastructure, and development tools, Laksham sought to bring a fresh perspective into manufacturing. He applied lean principles to supply chain processes and developed a solution that triumphs over the traditional Material Requirements Planning (MRP) systems and delivers more value.
