Founded in 1977, LISI Aerospace is a division of the French group LISI and specializes in the supply of fasteners and components for commercial and military aviation.
With more than 5500 employees worldwide, LISI Aerospace operates in 8 countries and offers innovative, high-quality solutions to meet the specific needs of the aerospace industry.
LISI Aerospace is committed to ensuring the safety, performance, and reliability of aircrafts thanks to its unique aerospace expertise.
Thanks to Ivalua’s “Strategy & Analytics” modules, deployed in 2016, LISI Aerospace can control its expenses, measure its savings, and evaluate the performance of its buyers.
LISI Aerospace continued the deployment of the Ivalua suite with the integration of the “Contract & Catalogue” and “Procurement” modules in order to improve collaboration between the procurement officers and buyers and to streamline the procure-to-pay process for all categories of direct and indirect purchasing.
OJC and LISI Aerospace developed a “core model” applicable to all of the division’s sites consisting of testing, integration, training, and deployment in one month.
Emphasis was placed on the online training comprised of a variety of materials (videos, note cards, exercises) that allowed for quick learning and adoption of the new features. These materials, translated into multiple languages and customized for the different user populations, were used in trainings provided by OJC in the USA, Canada, France, and Turkey, as well as online sessions for other sites.
A revamped purchasing process that is simplified, collaborative and efficient.
Digitalization of purchase requests and orders, from their creation to their validation.
A new shared item repository offering more visibility into purchases, thus creating savings opportunities and additional negotiating power for buyers.
Successful deployment in all the countries concerned.
Replication of the model defined at group level with a rapid adoption rate of the BeST solution.
Very high level of user satisfaction with the quality of the training materials and the different formats offered.
Efficient management of training by OJC, allowing the LISI Aerospace team to focus on the operational and technical aspects of the deployment.
