Digitize, visualize, and synchronize material flow across your supply chain.
Eliminate material shortages and overstock with smart, digital replenishment.
SCY E-Kanban replaces manual card systems with real-time, sensor-driven replenishment signals — enabling seamless flow between suppliers, production lines, and warehouses.
Accelerate response times, cut material waste, and achieve true just-in-time efficiency.
Problem Statement
Manual Kanban systems often break down due to paper-based tracking, human error, or delays in replenishment. The result? Stockouts on the shop floor, excess inventory in stores, and reduced production throughput.
Impact: In discrete manufacturing, 70% of downtime is caused by missing parts or poor material visibility.
Solution Overview
SCY E-Kanban digitizes the entire Kanban process — from signal generation to supplier communication — through IoT, barcode/RFID integration, and automated triggers.
It ensures every replenishment request is visible, traceable, and actionable in real time.
By synchronizing material movement with production schedules, SCY E-Kanban eliminates the chaos of manual tracking, reduces WIP, and increases overall equipment effectiveness (OEE).
Unlike static systems, it adapts dynamically to consumption rates, demand fluctuations, and priority changes — ensuring uninterrupted production flow.

Automotive Tier-1 Supplier – From Chaos to Flow
A Tier-1 auto parts supplier relied on manual Kanban cards and Excel tracking for replenishment. Frequent part shortages caused production delays and emergency shipments.
After implementing SCY E-Kanban, the system connected 14 production lines and 30 suppliers through digital signals.
RFID-based bins triggered replenishment in real-time, reducing WIP by 28% and improving production uptime by 15%.
With visibility dashboards, planners could anticipate shortages and proactively manage supplier lead times.
