F.I.S. strengthens supply chain with Kinaxis and Aeonvis: optimization of planning and full synergy between business departments.

THE CLIENT

F.I.S. - Trusted partner for major international pharmaceutical industries

With more than 60 years of experience and a solid presence in Italy and Europe, Fabbrica Italiana Sintetici is a benchmark in the production of active ingredients for the pharmaceutical industry.

F.I.S. boasts three state-of-the-art production facilities and a team of more than 1,750 professionals committed to ensuring quality and reliability on a global scale.

THE CHALLENGE

Supporting expansion with an innovative supply chain planning solution

The strong growth of Fabbrica Italiana Sintetici (F.I.S.) required a significant evolution in supply chain planning processes. The increase in products to be handled, the growing number and articulation of production constraints, and the need for quick responses to confirm orders have made transformation essential. In particular, in a complex environment characterized by:

Management to campaigns that reduce flexibility in responding to sudden changes in demand or disruptions in the supply chain.
Management of multipurpose resources, which are difficult to balance between different productions, minimizing downtime, especially if there is no clear visibility of availability and demand.

Traditional methods, based on manual processes and Office tools, could no longer support this expansion. F.I.S. therefore chose to adopt an innovative supply chain planning solution, capable of ensuring speed, accuracy and flexibility to successfully meet the challenges of an increasingly competitive market.

THE SOLUTION

F.I.S. transforms supply chain with Kinaxis Maestro and support from Aeonvis

F.I.S. chose to revolutionize its approach to supply chain planning by adopting the Kinaxis Maestro platform, with the strategic support of Aeonvis, Kinaxis’s Italian partner. This strategic project saw, first the analysis and selection of the solution, then the implementation of Maestro, accompanied by a profound transformation of internal processes.
Aeonvis did not limit itself to the implementation phase, but also trained the internal team, facilitating the adoption of the new solution. In addition, thanks to the flexible, non-modular structure of the Kinaxis platform, F.I.S. was able to eliminate internal organizational silos, creating a true synergy between sales, production, logistics, and purchasing departments for more efficient cross-departmental collaboration.

THE RESULT

Strengthening the supply chain with Kinaxis Master: greater responsiveness, visibility and decisions guided by KPIS

Through the adoption of Kinaxis Maestro and close collaboration with Aeonvis, F.I.S. has transformed its supply chain planning process, achieving significant improvement in responsiveness, end-to-end visibility and decision-making capability. Real-time simulations, combined with the ability to monitor KPIs and set specific targets, have enhanced the entire system, making it more agile and aligned with market needs.

The result? A consistent and dynamic planning process that contributes directly to strengthening F.I.S.’s competitiveness in an ever-changing and expanding landscape.
