Toyota in Europe: The Mobility Company

T oyota Motor Europe( TME) has entered into a long-term contract with advanced supply chain optimisation software provider Agillence. Following the successful completion of an initial pilot programme, TME will continue utilising the proprietary Agillence Lean Logistics Optimizer( ALLO) software to drive strategic planning across its inbound parts logistics network.

The automotive manufacturer’ s European logistics operations are highly complex, demanding immense precision. During the pilot phase, the ALLO platform successfully demonstrated its ability to improve inbound planning performance, significantly compress planning cycle times and directly support TME’ s broader carbon neutrality objectives.
Under the new formalised agreement, the software will provide ongoing support for strategic network planning and scenario analysis. This data-driven approach allows TME to simulate different routing and logistics configurations, enhancing the overall efficiency, resilience and sustainability of its inbound operations.
Jean Christophe Deville, Vice President of Supply Chain at TME, says:“ ALLO has proven to be a strategic asset in our pursuit of a sustainable, cost-efficient logistics network across Europe. We are confident that this longterm partnership will continue to drive meaningful progress toward our carbon neutrality goals while delivering real operational value.”
