Hitachi Group, Hitachi Vantara Manufacturing - Norman- Productivity

As demand for AI-driven infrastructure accelerated, the Norman site shifted its business toward highly customized storage solutions. Increasing product complexity, fragmented data and concentrated quarter-end demand exposed productivity constraints and slowed revenue conversion. By integrating inventory visibility and decision-making into a global digital platform and deploying AI-enabled configuration automation, the site reduced inventory by 50%, shortened order-to-ship lead times by 77% and advanced a proactive end-to-end orchestration model to improve delivery performance and responsiveness.
