New integrated digital platform allows for real-time management of the supply chain improving operational efficiency
Initiative is part of the Company’s growth strategy to better balance production output throughout the next few years and improve supply chain collaboration
Embraer, a global leader in the aerospace industry, has finalized the implementation of the ONEChain Program, an initiative to support the Company growth’s strategy that leverages digital transformation to help improve the management of its supply chain. The ONEChain platform was designed to simplify and digitalize supply chain operations by fostering greater transparency, agility, and collaboration through an integrated process that benefits both Embraer and its suppliers worldwide.
By adopting and disseminating the best practices in the market, ONEChain has enabled the company to improve governance, standardize processes, reduce costs and expenses, increase competitiveness, agility, and productivity, as well as to digitize and unify a large part of the supply chain processes in an innovative way.
“In addition to achieving enhanced operational efficiency, we have integrated all operations with our suppliers and partners in a single platform, which makes it possible to manage operations in real-time,” says Roberto Chaves, Embraer’s Executive Vice President of Global Procurement and Supply. “This guarantees a more leveled and uniform production of our products, a reduction in fixed and variable costs, and more agile decision-making processes.
Recently, the ONEChain program was recognized at the Procurement Success Summit (PSS) in China, being awarded in two categories: Process Innovation Award and Procurement Ecosystem Award. “Being recognized at this global, top-level procurement award ceremony makes us very proud of the ONEChain Program, which is setting a new standard in digital transformation, supplier collaboration, and operational excellence,” added Roberto Chaves.
The program has been implemented in Brazil and countries where Embraer operates: the United States, China, Singapore, as well as France, the Netherlands and Portugal.
