SUPPLY CHAIN EFFECTIVENESS
Pushing the Process.
Lean supply chain management is achieved by identifying, observing and eliminating waste as measured in time, inventory and cost across the complete supply chain. This requires continuous effort and improvement. A lean supply chain can reduce lost time by 10 to 40%, inventories by 10% to 30% and costs by 10% to 25%. Continuous improvements can take payback to much higher levels. It is a significant benefit that can be accomplished in as little as 15-30 calendar weeks. Trindent uses an observation approach to encourage front-line management across inter-related departments to 'see for themselves what others are doing'. Our consultants typically spend approximately 1,000 hours observing the key processes in a lean supply chain project. Then we design a program where front-line client management gets 'front-row' exposure to the core problems across the supply chain - from sales to customer service, warehousing, shipping, receiving, purchasing and everything in between. This helps to drive sustainable, continuous improvements across the entire supply chain.
Trindent can design a unique solution to help you overcome any challenge. Contact Us.
