A leading graphic card designer, Nvidia has partnered with several manufacturers to which it outsourced the manufacturing of its graphic card. Although the company had an efficient ERP system, it was not able to keep up the information from flowing to and fro updated at real time. Due to the disconnect between all its partners and suppliers, the company suffered in providing manufacturing specs at real time thereby increasing the error and supply cycle.

In order to solve the crisis, Nvidia approached Serus, an upcoming company that provides intelligent management solutions. Serus, deployed its solution on top of Nvidia’s existing ERP system and connected it to all its outsourced manufacturing partners and suppliers, effectively allowing it to share the manufacturing specs and collaborate on other occasions. With in a few months of deploying the new solution Nvidia saw the margin of error reduce from 70 errors a week to zero errors now. Serus also helped it decrease the supply cycle time from 2 days a week to 2 hours.
