This presentation is based on the business case of a medical device manufacturer re engineering its distribution network in Asia. This kind of problem can be symmetrically considered for sourcing networks, it is just about reversing the flows...
This presentation will highlight how optimizing the location, number of distribution centers and the product flows (which product from which plant to which Dc) and can contribute to reduce inventories, improve service level and improve parallel functions such as sales forecast and customer support. But beyond the example, we will show that a sourcing or distribution network is not a static organization in fast growing markets but must evolve through different stages depending on demand growth, customer requirements and relative costs (transport vs inventory...

1. Workshop

Analytical Methods for Supply Chain Management

Hakan Yildiz (Ph.D.) // Michigan State University, USA

This workshop will help the attendees to develop practical analytical and spreadsheet skills while introducing quantitative modeling tools that are widely used to aid management decision making. We will focus on structuring complex business decision problems to make them tractable by systematically identifying alternatives, objectives, constraints, and uncertainties, and quantifying the relationships among them. We will use examples from different functional areas of supply chain management.

2. Workshop

Are Your Safety Stocks Right Sized? How to decide, based on experience or mathematics?

Real Methods Applied in Amazon and the Auchan Groups

Thibault Quiviger // Founder of Enetek, France

The objective of this workshop is to help attendees understand how transport costs, inventory costs (especially safety stocks), products features and customer requirements interplay when designing an optimal sourcing/distribution network. We will start from the demand and demand variability for a full product range of a given industry, analyze transport costs and inventory costs (using the usual normal distribution for demand), attendees will come down to a specific formula re computing the optimal number of distribution centers based on the parameters of any specific industry : value of products, average weight and volume, transport costs, supply chain lead time vs service level required by customer - delivery lead time and service time -... Out of this quantitative formula, attendees will then compare the distribution strategies of different industries, understand the evolution of specific players in different industries (from heavy industries to electronics or Internet based companies). Finally, they will imagine different solutions to modify the driving parameters of their own industries (product features, customer requirements...) and find relevant examples in other industries which will have already implemented this kind of solutions.
