OFD Foods is the world’s largest custom processor of freeze-dried products, known for the Mountain House® brand and its long-standing partnerships with leading food companies including NutriSystem and Kirkland Signature™.
Together with its affiliate European Freeze Dry, OFD has become a global leader in applying freeze-drying technology across a wide range of industries.
But despite their scale, OFD’s global supply chain was struggling to keep up. Late shipments, retail stockouts, and costly expediting were eroding both customer trust and profitability.
As OFD’s business grew internationally, their supply chain complexity grew with it.
The company faced mounting issues including:
The inefficiencies weren’t just operational—they were holding back growth. To keep service high and costs down, OFD needed a planning model that could balance availability with agility.
OFD addressed these challenges by first embracing Demand Driven MRP (DDMRP) principles—creating the foundation for more responsive, flow-based planning. Once those methods were in place, the team implemented Intuiflow from Demand Driven Technologies to bring the concepts to life across multiple corporate divisions.
The impact was almost immediate. Within four weeks, planners were already seeing smoother material flow and more reliable replenishment signals across the business.
In the first year alone, OFD achieved:
By aligning production and materials planning to real demand, OFD eliminated the constant cycle of shortages, expedites, and overstock—replacing it with a predictable, agile flow that scaled effortlessly as the company grew.
OFD’s transformation illustrates what Intuiflow was built for—helping manufacturers replace forecast-driven chaos with a connected, demand-driven flow that delivers measurable results in weeks, not quarters.
Intuiflow is a single, unified platform that connects materials planning, scheduling, and execution to real demand. Instead of chasing shortages or rescheduling manually, planners see live priorities, AI-optimized buffers, and one version of the truth across teams.
Materials Planning: Keep inventory aligned to true demand—prevent shortages and overstocks with AI-optimized buffers and automated replenishment.
Scheduling & Execution: Turn production priorities into predictable performance by sequencing work to actual capacity and demand.
Sales & Operations Planning: Link strategy to execution with real-time visibility across sales, finance, and operations.
Demand Planning: Replace static forecasts with adaptive, data-driven plans that flex as the market shifts.
Autopilot, Intuiflow’s built-in AI engine, continuously fine-tunes parameters across every module—removing manual effort while keeping plans responsive to change. Embedded Power BI dashboards deliver instant insight, and secure ERP integrations make deployment straightforward.
