In Ukraine’s competitive pet food market, Kormotech has grown into a major force—producing premium wet and dry food under its own brands and private labels for export to 18 countries. Launched in 2003, the company’s vision is clear: to become one of the Top 50 pet food manufacturers worldwide.
With a high-tech production facility capable of 43,000 tons annually and a 61,000-square-foot warehouse holding more than 4,000 pallets, the company seemed to have everything it needed to scale. But by 2019, growth was being stifled—not by market demand, but by its own supply chain.
The Challenge: Too Much of the Wrong, Too Little of the Right
Despite its advanced facilities, Kormotech’s operations team found themselves stuck in a familiar loop: overfilled raw material stores and constant shortages of the materials they actually needed.
The imbalance created chronic problems—unfinished production runs, late customer deliveries, and a warehouse full of slow-moving stock. Finished goods at the distribution center were suffering the same fate: excess inventory value, long lead times, and service levels too low for a brand with global ambitions.
“Intuiflow is the next step in planning. I always know what is necessary to produce and the optimal time to produce it.”
— Roman Dyda, Production Planning Manager, Kormotech
The planning systems in place simply couldn’t handle today’s volatility. Traditional MRP logic often created “too little of the right and too much of the wrong.” The result? Capital locked in the warehouse and customers left waiting.
The Solution: Demand-Driven Planning with Intuiflow
Kormotech turned to Intuiflow, powered by Demand Driven MRP (DDMRP) principles, to bring clarity and flow back to their operations.
The implementation followed a two-phase approach, focusing first on inventory repositioning and then on adaptive, buffer-based planning:
-
Phase 1 – Strategic Repositioning"
The team analyzed where inventory should truly sit—both in raw materials and finished goods—and restructured items by reliability, lead time, and cost. The change was immediate:
-
Phase 2 – Automated, Adaptive Planning:
With Intuiflow’s DDMRP buffers in place, parameters now adjust automatically based on real consumption. Inventory levels flex dynamically as demand changes, allowing the supply chain to flow smoothly without constant manual intervention.
The impact went far beyond efficiency. For the first time, Kormotech’s planners had full visibility into every stage—from raw material purchasing to finished goods distribution—inside one unified system.
Results: 40% Higher Sales, 45% Lower Inventory, and a Clear Path Forward
According to project lead Otis Law, who managed the implementation in Eastern Europe, the company’s shift to Intuiflow transformed performance across every dimension.
“Before the project, the sales director believed that stockouts were limiting revenue. Meanwhile, logistics was running out of warehouse space. We brought all the data into one system and launched automated inventory management—from raw materials to the distribution center.”
Within months, the results spoke for themselves:
- Sales increased by 40%
- Inventory levels decreased by 45%
- Service levels climbed sharply, ensuring production and delivery stayed aligned
For Kormotech, the breakthrough wasn’t just about a new tool—it was about replacing outdated methodologies with a modern, integrated system that connects planning, execution, and visibility.
Building a Demand-Driven Culture
Today, Kormotech’s planners no longer chase shortages or guess at what to produce next. They use clear, real-time data to make fast, confident decisions.
Orders are approved in batches, detailed part histories are just a click away, and every department—from procurement to production—works from the same picture of reality.
The company now has complete end-to-end visibility of its supply chain, improved data accuracy, and a stable planning rhythm.
As Roman Dyda summarizes, “Intuiflow gives me full control. I always know what’s needed, and when. That’s how we keep production flowing.”
