# Building the Foundation for Automation and Predictive Analytics

### How DMS is working to create a single source of truth across manufacturing operations

Virtual Fireside Discussion | October 23, 2025

Manufacturing companies often struggle with fragmented data across multiple systems, creating inefficiencies and limiting real-time decision-making capabilities. Manual Excel-based processes and siloed information prevent organizations from achieving true supply chain visibility and operational efficiency.

Detroit Manufacturing Systems (DMS) faced this exact challenge across their complex supply chain involving SAP, MES systems, and multiple supplier networks. This initiated a digital transformation that automated 80% of manual reporting efforts, enabled real-time inventory optimization worth $300K in potential savings, and created the trusted data foundation needed for future AI initiatives.

Discover how DMS transformed from manual "Excel gymnastics" to real-time analytics, enabling proactive decision-making across finance, operations, and supply chain teams.  
 

Join us for a *live, in-person* fireside discussion with Nick Shearhouse and Dan Nowicki from Detroit Manufacturing Systems (DMS), a Tier 1 automotive supplier, and Adam Hendrik from Holland Parker, as they share the unvarnished truth about digital transformation.
