Planning the slitting of jumbo rolls into specific production widths was managed entirely manually with significant material waste and excess stock, driving up unnecessary costs.
BRINEL | IQANTO developed an AI-powered solution that transforms stock and slitting optimization into a fast, autonomous process. Using Agentic AI, the solution automatically determines the optimal cutting plan, selects the right jumbo roll, and calculates the exact impact on inventory. In less than 1 minute, it generates three mathematically optimized scenarios, allowing the business to prioritize minimum material waste, minimum excess stock, or the optimal balance between the two. As inventory changes, optimization can be performed instantly and on demand, helping maintain operational continuity while improving material utilization and stock efficiency.
The solution delivered measurable improvements throughout the entire flow:
Time savings in production planning;
Annual savings in production planning labor costs
Up-to-date information for better-informed executive decisions.
The solution was built on a flexible cloud infrastructure to support business growth while keeping operational costs optimized. This architecture guarantees that sensitive data is strictly protected and production processes run continuously.
To mitigate risks during AI adoption, BRINEL | IQANTO established a rigorous enterprise-grade governance framework to keep data protected and compliant with European regulations.
