JK Tyre, part of the ₹50,000 crore JK Group, is a leading manufacturer in the tyre industry with a diverse portfolio spanning sectors like cement, healthcare, education, and more. The company operates nine plants, 18 feeders, and over 140 depots across India, producing 800+ SKUs. While a testament to its success, the scale and diversity of its operations also brought significant challenges in supply chain management.&nbsp;JK Tyre's supply chain faced multiple complexities due to its vast network and large product range. Managing such an extensive operation with 800+ SKUs across various categories meant that traditional supply chain strategies, especially forecasting, were insufficient. A major challenge was ensuring optimal capacity utilisation while providing the right product was available at the right place and time. As a capital-intensive industry, these inefficiencies impacted product availability and operational costs.&nbsp;JK Tyre partnered with Vector Consulting to improve efficiencies in its supply chain and operations to address these challenges. Vector Consulting and JK Tyre implemented a more dynamic, consumption-based production and distribution strategy. This shift allowed JK Tyre to align production with actual consumption patterns, ensuring better product availability and more efficient distribution.&nbsp;These improvements optimised the supply chain and resulted in better margins, revenue growth, and a more robust market position.<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:555/418;" src="https://web-assets.vectorconsulting.in/storage/editor_uploads//image_1745585704.png" width="555" height="418"></figure>&nbsp;&nbsp;
