Transportation Optimization

Inventory DeploymentFacility Design

Network Structure

Examples of Targets of

Optimization:

• Service Level

• Cost to Serve

• Consolidation / Expansion

• Leverage current assets, with considerations for potential design changes at each facility

• More mature supply chains tend to benefit from this approach, rather than a “greenfield” design strategy

• For high capital networks in mature markets – in-depth facility reviews are crucial to optimize the network

• Must be based on actual budgets, timelines, risks, expectations, roadblocks, etc.

AN INTEGRATED APPROACH IS CRITICAL

Supply Chains are Faced with Mounting Internal and External Pressures

Key Steps to Design your Future Supply Chain:

► Determine Your Future Supply Chain Needs

► Develop Alternatives How to Best Accomplish

► Model the Scenarios

► Finalize the Business Case for the Solution

New Technologies Make it Easier than Ever to:

► Visualize

► Evaluate Scenarios

► Conduct Sensitivity Tests

► Simulate Future Network

Tools are Only as Powerful as the Inputs and Those Driving the Analysis

WAREHOUSE DESIGN & OPERATIONS

The key to good warehouse design is the integration of these factors to create a single, well-functioning system

Operations Optimization

Process Focus

Design Impact

Smooth Flow

Maximize

effectiveness of

1) production

process

2) human capital

Ensure smooth flow of

work, material and

information through

the system

Good design is process-

oriented and builds from

the inside out

Consider how

layout and

design will

impact how the

work is done
