Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) business models have gone from simple cost-cutting to being demand-oriented and customer-facing. In this transformation, MindTree knows that the ability to link the value chain - from your customer back through operations to your suppliers - can mean the difference between surviving and thriving in the marketplace.

MindTree makes the effort to understand and sharply define your business challenges before identifying and implementing the appropriate technology solution. Domain experts in the CPG field will redefine demand and forecasting paradigms to improve your forecast accuracy. They’ll also help develop constraint-based production and distribution planning models to boost Stock Availability Index (SAI) and On-Time-In-Full (OTIF) deliveries. MindTree can help increase sales and improve customer service through Direct-To-Consumer (DTC) Web applications, allowing cross/up-selling, and traceability of acquisition/retention programs.
