The 2026 Pfizer Tauber Team will address operational inefficiencies within its Global Materials Management warehouse in Groton, CT, where complex workflows, demand variability, and limited visibility into capacity create bottlenecks and constrain performance. The team will develop a data-driven capacity model and digital twin to identify constraints, optimize resource allocation, and enable a 10% increase in workload using existing resources.
