Thousands of SKUs across yarns, knits, fabrics, garments and color/size grids; collections with short life cycles and high seasonality; chained processes of spinning, knitting, dyeing, printing, cutting and sewing; long color-dependent dyeing setups; and extensive outsourcing (sewing contractors) create a puzzle that spreadsheets and ERPs can no longer solve.
We combine sector experience and the robustness of Siemens solutions with the innovation of one of the fastest-growing Indtechs in the global Supply Chain Planning space.
Manufacturers of apparel, knitwear, lingerie, nonwovens, footwear and textile goods that chose Neo to orchestrate their production planning and/or detailed scheduling with S&OP and APS solutions.
Neo's solutions cover the most critical decisions in the textile and apparel chain, connecting demand, inventory, capacity and detailed scheduling in a continuous cycle.

Statistical forecasting and commercial collaboration for seasonal collections, continuous (basic) items and new launches, handling high seasonality, short life cycles and thousands of SKUs across color and size grids with AI/ML methods.
Inventory and replenishment policies for yarns, fibers and trims, knits and greige fabrics, semi-finished and finished goods, with ABC/XYZ segmentation and coverage tailored to MTS/MTO environments — reducing tied-up capital and collection obsolescence.
Distribution and transfer planning for multi-DC networks, own retail, multi-brand resellers, e-commerce and exports, with fair share and prioritization by order book and promised dates.
S&OP and finite capacity at the sector's real bottlenecks — spinning, knitting/weaving, dyeing, printing, cutting and sewing — accounting for outsourced sewing contractors and labor shared across dozens of resources.
Opcenter APS sequencing chained processes with color-dependent dyeing setup matrices (light-to-dark sequencing), synchronizing knitting, dyeing, cutting and sewing, batches and shared resources — reducing setups, changeovers, rework, queues and WIP.
Fast, reliable rescheduling in response to machine breakdowns, dyeing rework, material delays and commercial priority changes, with scenario simulation, trustworthy promised dates and end-to-end chain visibility.
Neo's experience with more than 120 projects, many of them publicly documented, is reflected in quantitative and qualitative results that help companies reach new levels of supply chain maturity. See some examples of what to expect for the sector:
"Opcenter APS has already proven its strength with impressive results in order generation, but our vision goes further. We are convinced that, together with NEO, this solution won't just be an evolution, it will be a revolution. A true game changer that will redefine the standards of full planning and scheduling, paving the way for a new level of intelligence and performance."
