Company Overview
Keurig Dr Pepper (KDP) is one of North America’s leading beverage companies, operating a highly complex supply chain spanning manufacturing, distribution, and direct-store delivery. With a diverse product portfolio and multiple operating models, the company continually looks for ways to improve planning, collaboration, and supply chain decision-making.
“We needed to find a partner that could help supplement the skills that we didn’t have, but also a tool that would advance our ability to scenario the network. We shifted to GAINS because of the ability to put our hands on the tool and the architect modeling tool. It was important for us to be a part of the modeling, the data collection, the validation and the scenario building. Rather than just pass over data, here are the keys.”
– Tyler Waddles, Director of Logistics – Transformation & Business Operations, Keurig Dr Pepper
The Challenge
Planning decisions were often fragmented across teams, making it difficult to:
- Align demand, supply, and logistics decisions
- Evaluate trade-offs quickly
- Respond to disruptions and changing demand
- Create a single, trusted view of the network
The Solution
With GAINS, KDP moved beyond disconnected tools and spreadsheets to create a shared network model that supports scenario planning, cross-functional collaboration, and faster decision-making.
“The GAINS collaboration has been the key that has unlocked what we’re doing.”
– Tyler Waddles, Director of Logistics – Transformation & Business Operations, Keurig Dr Pepper
