Competitive supply chain solutions for online retail

In the future, the market will insist that supply chains for goods distribution in online retail provide next-day delivery, same-day delivery and just-in-time deliveries. Adjustment and optimisation of the entire supply chain are necessary to enable these services at minimal cost. Warehouse network structures must be adapted and harmonised according to highly efficient transport strategies. The warehouse or hub function needs to be designed efficiently and flexibly in regard to the order picking, shipping, automation level and inventory range processes. Moreover, smart combination and control are necessary for a variety of supply concepts/distribution methods, including third-party delivery, cross-docking fulfilment or single and double-stage warehouse fulfilment. Our toolset allows us to design these complex supply chains at benchmarkable cost and to assess them in a high level of detail.

End-to-end supply chain optimisation
Several key elements need to be considered from a company’s perspective to enable integral supply chain optimisation:

The planning processes, combining sales and inventory planning, demand and capacity planning (sales & operation planning), as well as production and procurement planning.

Order management and the order-to-cash process.

Implementation of a lean supply chain by reducing unnecessary handling and inventory stages during inbound, intra- and outbound logistics.

All planning and control processes are analysed, optimised and finally integrated, based on the big picture for planning processes within a company. Supply chain and value stream design methods are applied to ensure leaner material flow. Consistent optimisation of this kind requires expertise within information and material flow topics, in planning and control, as well as knowledge of auxiliary IT applications for the ERP and SCM systems.

Supply Chain 4.0

Digitalisation, the Internet of Things (IoT), big data applications and highly automated handling and transport systems are frequently cited as supply chain building blocks in the age of Manufacturing 4.0. Accomplishments achieved within lean supply chain management are now precipitating the next transformation process for greater efficiency and transparency. Big data analytics allows our consultants to tap into significant rationalisation potential in the client’s supply chain, especially in the area of transport optimisation (utilisation of transport means and containers), inventory optimisation and empties management. High-performance analysis and optimisation tools are developed for these big data applications.
