Client
The client is a world-leading American multinational in HVAC, refrigeration, and fire and security solutions, with US $22.5 billion in global sales and operations spanning 160 countries. With over 52,000 employees, it serves a diverse global customer base across six continents, delivering essential solutions for commercial and residential infrastructure.
Market Dynamics
As HVAC systems become smarter, more connected, and increasingly AI-driven, global manufacturers like our client are under pressure to innovate rapidly while keeping core operations stable. The growing demand for intelligent climate control, energy efficiency, and seamless automation has transformed HVAC from a mechanical industry into a digitally enabled one.
This shift is part of a broader digital transformation in manufacturing, where organizations must bridge the gap between legacy systems and modern infrastructure to stay competitive.
Yet, challenges persist—especially for large, multinational players managing sprawling operations across continents. Fragmented processes, limited real-time visibility into material and truck movement, and siloed yard logistics remain major hurdles, straining factory efficiency and delaying response times.
Compounded by persistent supply chain disruptions, economic volatility, and labor shortages, these operational gaps can hinder service delivery and erode competitive advantage. For global HVAC leaders, building operational resilience and achieving real-time transparency is no longer optional, it’s imperative.
Challenges
Due to these industry pressures, the client faced several operational hurdles that limited efficiency and visibility:
- Fragmented processes across business units led to inconsistent data flows and manual dependencies, slowing down decision-making and day-to-day operations.
- Limited real-time visibility into material movement created inefficiencies in transit tracking and disrupted inventory accuracy across global facilities.
- Lack of yard visibility made it difficult to monitor truck locations and manage logistics at warehouse and manufacturing sites, affecting dispatch efficiency.
- Increased operational burden on factory staff, who had to rely on manual follow-ups due to disjointed systems, impacting overall service delivery and customer satisfaction.
Solution
LTIMindtree helped the client modernize and streamline its operations through a unified integration strategy. Central to this transformation was the Boomi integration platform, which enabled secure, real-time connectivity across systems:
