GLOBAL SUPPLY CHAIN PLANNING SYSTEM

GLOBAL SUPPLY CHAIN PLANNING SYSTEM CAPABILITES.

The following is a listing of the more significant capabilities:

• Provide management with a tool to accurately predict the financial and production impact of changes in the Global Supply Chain Process.
• Compare third party suppliers to the current operations from a profit, cost and delivery basis.
• Determine projected revenues and profitability based on proposed changes in supply chain process.
• Determine Gross Margin Return On Investment (GMROI) based on proposed changes in the supply chain processes.
• Interface to external data bases to minimize data input.
• Determine all aspects of the Global Supply Chain Network.
• Identify potential supply chain bottleneck areas.
• Determine projected order fulfillment times based on proposed supply chain process changes.
• Determine projected number of stockouts based on proposed supply chain process changes.
• Identify potential supply chain process improvements (opportunities).
• Determine the projected In-process and Finished Goods inventory requirements.

GLOBAL SUPPLY CHAIN PLANNING SYSTEM REPORTING CAPABILITIES.

• Throughput capability in terms of order fulfillment.
• Supply Chain Process Utilizations.
• Total process time to process an order and projected stock-outs by SKU.
• Projected revenues which includes total revenues and revenues by channel for each proposed scenario.
• Projected manufacturing and purchased costs, profits, and profit margins by SKU for each proposed scenario.
• Projected in-process and finished goods inventory costs and number of units at all locations in the supply chain process for each proposed scenario.
• Gross Margin Return On Investment (GMROI) for each proposed scenariop

BENEFITS OF GLOBAL SUPPLY CHAIN PLANNING SYSTEM.

• Significantly improve profitability.
• Cost effectively identify where to apply resources (capital, inventory, equipment, and labor) in order to identify the factors that have the greatest impact on current and future profitability .
• Rapidly evaluate proposed changes in the Global Supply Chain Process to achieve desired targets before committing large sums of capital.
• Manage risks with a high degree of confidence in the expected results.

Our experience on similar projects have resulted in the following potential benefits:

• 22% – 38% reduction in operating cost
• 25% – 35% reduction in required floor space
• 23% – 46% improvement in total product process time
• 18% – 30% savings in capital investment

Global Supply Chain Planning System can be used as often as is needed, based on the business/operating environment. This will allow the analyst to evaluate future business and operating scenarios to optimize the profitability and throughput capability of the entire supply chain process.
