Group Supply Chain management optimization and inventory organization structure definition

Decision planning Strategy

When designing a supply chain model, consider whether to adopt a centralized or decentralized planning strategy. Centralized strategy is centralized control, optimization plan to meet the global goal of virtual enterprise, according to the overall goal to plan the entire supply chain. Decentralized strategy is distributed control, can be adjusted manually to meet local targets, the enterprise into a number of departments, Plan one or more organizations locally and plan the rest of the organization in a central location.

If some partners can accept the concept of optimizing the supply chain as a virtual enterprise, the supply chain plan is used to maintain the ability to manage the supply chain. If some factories insist on independent planning and control, they still need to retain the decentralized policy functionality. The rest of the supply chain will be planned around a given (non collaborative) supply plan.

If the components of the supply chain are only partially optimized, the supply chain as a whole will be harmed according to the degree of the supply chain system is not optimized. Today's competition is not a competition between enterprises and enterprises. It is the supply chain to the supply chain competition. The main obstacle to the success of the supply chain is the traditional performance evaluation, and the traditional performance evaluation objectively encourages the local optimization.

II. Define Inventory organization structure

Each inventory organization is accountable to a single business entity. You can set up multiple business entities. You can establish links between multiple inventory organizations and the master inventory organization across multiple business entities. Items are defined in the item master Inventory organization and are enabled in the appropriate inventory organization. Supply chain models can be built across a set of accounts and across business entities.

Iii. Defining supply Chain structure

Supply chain structure is different from inventory organization structure. The inventory organization is static and limited to both the primary organization and the inventory organization, and the supply chain model is dynamic, involves multiple levels, and can be very complex.

The complexity of the supply chain model can be increased in the following situations:

1. Multi-level and multi-organization supply chain
2, Hybrid mode manufacturing methods (discrete manufacturing, flow manufacturing, process manufacturing and project manufacturing)
3, completely different software version and original software system
4. Obtain the same material from multiple suppliers
5, different inventory organization preferred suppliers different
6, manufacturing capacity, supplier capacity and transport capacity limitations
7, delivery frequency and transit time with the material, suppliers and shipping methods vary
8. Allocate shortage resources according to demand priority
9, the business involves external suppliers
10, the use of alternative routes to mitigate bottlenecks and balance resource utilization
11, the establishment of transport capacity model
12. Inter-organization transport capacity
13. Shipping Network
14. Shipping Mode
15. Transport capacity between external locations and organizations:
16. Transit time between locations

The capacity to transport is to specify the transport capacity between the two inventory organizations, or to designate the transport capacity between the external location and the inventory organization, optionally defining the transport capacity between locations:

(1) Transport capacity between organizations, for inter-organization transport, supply chain planning use of transport capacity is defined in the network links between each organization.

(2) The transport capacity between the external location and the organization is the use of transit time between locations to define the transit time between the supplier and customer location to the inventory organization, and to specify the shipping capacity.
