Übersicht

Performance Health is the world’s largest manufacturer and distributor of rehabilitation, physical therapy, and sports medicine products, serving over 5,000 hospital systems, 172 VA facilities, and 30,000 clinics across more than 100 countries. Managing complexity is business-critical with a supply chain that spans 300,000+ product-location combinations.

Legacy supply chain planning systems couldn’t keep pace with this scale or the healthcare industry’s rapid shifts. That’s why Performance Health turned to ketteQ to deliver a next-generation, AI-powered platform that enables agility, automation, and improved patient outcomes.

“We needed a fundamentally different planning solution; one that harnesses generative AI, machine learning, advanced solvers, and cloud computing to deliver the agility and real-time insights required to navigate these complexities. That’s why we implemented ketteQ.”

Herausforderung

In healthcare, the stakes are high. Every delay in the supply chain can disrupt care delivery or compromise patient outcomes. Performance Health’s planning teams faced mounting challenges:

‍Demand volatility driven by shifting patient needs and regional treatment patterns ‍
Limited visibility into global inventory, supply status, and disruptions ‍
Compliance complexity across 100+ countries with strict regulatory requirements ‍
Supply chain fragility, where disruptions could cascade across regions ‍
Product lifecycle planning with ongoing launches and phase-outs requires precision

These challenges exposed the limitations of traditional planning tools and created a clear need for an adaptive, real-time planning platform.
