Decouples difference in supply and demand requirements
Balancing Supply and Demand
Buffers (protection) against uncertainties: variation in supply and demand are managed with
Buffer (Safety) Stock
Price discounts or reduced shipping costs
Economies
Supply and Demand locations Vary
Enabling Geographic Specialization
5 Part Of Carrying (Holding) Costs
1. Opportunity Cost (Including cost of captital)
2. Storage and Warehouse Management
3. Taxes, and Insurance
4. Obsolescence, Spoilage, and Shrinkage
4. Obsolescence, spoilage, & shrinkage
5. Material handling, tracking, and management.
Purchasing items: placing and receiving orders
Ordering Cost (invoicing cost)
Make items: change-over between items
Setup Cost
Average Inventory = (beg. inv. + end inv.) / 2 Inventory Carrying Cost
=(avg. inv.) *(unit cost)*(carry cost rate)
Carrying (Holding) Costs
Ration of average inventory on hand and level of sales
Inventory Turnover
= cost of goods sold/ average inventory at cost
= net sales / average inventory at selling price
= unit sales / average inventory in units
Inventory Turnover
With an ANNUAL cost of goods sold of $500M and average inventory of $80M.
Inventory turns = $500/$80 = 6.25
Length of time operations can be supported with inventory on-hand
Days of Supply
Days of supply = Inventory/Daily demand. If inventory is 2M and daily demand is 25,000 day
Days of supply = 2m/25,000 = 80 days
Ranking inventory by importance
ABC analysis
Small percentage of items have a large impact on sales, profit or costs.
Pareto's Law
Variation increases upstream in the supply chain (from consumer to manufacturers)
Bullwhip Effect
The vendor is responsible for managing inventory for the customer (LONG TERM COMMITMENTS REQUIRED)
Vendor-managed inventory (VMI)
3 Parts to Vendor Manage Inventory
1. Vendor monitors and replenishes inventory balances (SUPPLIER PLACES REPLENISHMENT ORDERS)
2. Customer saves holding costs
3. Vendor has high visibility of inventory usage (SUPPLIER REPRESENTATIVE LOCATED AT CUSTOMER SITE)
CHAPTER 8
CHAPTER 8
A philosophy of MINIMIZING THE RESOURCES need for processes
Lean Systems Approach
1. Only the good/services that customers want
2. As quickly as customers want
3. With only features customers want
4. With perfect quality
5. In minimum possible lead time
Lean Systems Approach
Anything that doesn't add value is waste
Anything that doesn't add value is waste
Waste is a symptom of a problem and does not add value
Waste is a symptom of a problem and does not add value
Processing more than needed
Symptom (excessive inventory)
Overproduction
Excessive or Unnecessary Steps
(Symptom: Repeating setup steps (sorting, testing and inspection)
Processing
Unnecessary or excessive Resource activity
(Symptom: High Customer Returns)
Motion
Processes are activated by ACTUAL, not forecasted demand (i.e. production Kanban
Pull System:
Process change for outcome change
Process Focus
Places a high value on respect for people
Lean System Culture
Synchronizing output rate with demand rate
Takt Time
Output generated in response to actual demand (production ????? - authorizes a worker to replenish an empty bin)
Kanban (Pull)
Lean Tools and Techniques
Most of these tools and those listed on subsequent slide) are direct art reducing variability in the system.
Redesign so mistakes are impossible or immediately detectable (i.e. electrical plug has one prong bigger than another)
Poka Yoke
Effective housekeeping (sort, straighten, scrub, systematize, standardize) (i.e. clerk sorting and straightening various forms)
5-S
3 objective of Lean Design
1. Exactly meet customer needs
2. Support corporate strategy
3. Reduce opportunities of waste
