ArcelorMittal Belval & Differdange (Phase 2)

Mission

After carrying out the project to optimize the supply chain, STREMLER AG was also commissioned for the final phase of the operational implementation. For the rolling mill of the ArcelorMittal plant in Belval, an integrated, access-based campaign planning tool had to be designed and implemented based on the existing SAP landscape.

ArcelorMittal's project business, with changes to delivery dates, quantities and specifications, sometimes at short notice, requires a high level of reactivity from the planning tool and the control of operational processes.

Solution and Work Process

The planning and control was designed on the basis of a pull principle, with the aim of closely synchronizing production and market, taking into account

• the current demand situation

• the manufacturing status

• as well the stock situation

This objective is achieved by means of a high planning frequency in connection with a short “frozen zone” and integrated net material management. With simple operation and automated processes as well as flexible handling, the tool significantly increases the quality of planning and control.

Results

The supply chain efficiency of the ArcelorMittal Belval Train 2 plant was significantly increased in several respects:

• Optimization of planning for optimal use of resources

• Improve planning quality Increase decision security and efficiency of meetings

• Reduction of inventory Improvement

• Stabilization of delivery dates to the customer
