FOOTWEAR LOGISTICS / VIBRAM CASE STUDY As Vibram faced rapidly growing demand for its wildly popular footwear innovation, the company found its Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) and IT systems inadequate to process growing order volume. Barrett worked with Vibram to address these challenges and simultaneously create a solution to: Establish separate order processing and management locations for web and retail orders, Improve forecasting capability, and Bring inventory levels up to ensure responsiveness to surging demand. We have also dealt with requirements for counterfeit product detection and management of the brand threat, while ensuring that all solutions position Vibram to scale, with orders and delivery (direct to consumer and to retail channels) capable of fast response as orders grow in number and complexity.
