Accelerating Operational Planning with AI

A smart solution from Beyonder

At BOAL Extrusion, we believe that innovation is the driving force behind sustainable growth. That is why we are taking a strategic step in our digitalisation journey: together with Beyonder, we are investing in an advanced, AI-driven planning solution that helps us further optimise our complex supply chain and strengthen our competitive position.

Enhancing efficiency and reliability

In the dynamic manufacturing industry, predictable and scalable planning is crucial. By centralising data from multiple sources and using AI to elevate our operational planning - from production to transport - we are increasing both the efficiency and reliability of our deliveries.

We can already see how this will help us reduce costs and increase our predictability. It is crucial for our operations.

Gertjan Hakkers - Managing Director

 “We were looking for a scalable solution with a clear ROI to further strengthen our processes. Beyonder’s approach immediately appealed to us. By working step by step and focusing on the real bottlenecks in our transport planning, we were able to quickly build a strong business case. We can already see how this helps us reduce costs and increase predictability. That is crucial for our operations,” says Gertjan Hakkers, Managing Director.

Safeguarding knowledge

The impact of this digitalisation goes beyond operational gains alone. By translating our specialist knowledge into digital processes, we safeguard that expertise, make onboarding new colleagues much easier, and significantly reduce operational risk. In addition, we are investing in valuable intellectual property that strengthens our competitive position and directly contributes to the value of our organisation.

Accelerating together

For us, this project with Beyonder demonstrates how true acceleration happens when you work together. By combining our in‑depth knowledge of the production process with Beyonder’s digital expertise, we create a synergy that delivers more than either of us could achieve alone. Together, we are building a solution that truly makes a difference in our daily operations.
