Risk management
The need
50% of supply chain owners now outsource their transport and/or distribution - but satisfaction levels remain low. Over 45% of the outsourced customers do not expect to renew with their current provider. How do you ensure you are getting the best service at the best price?
The Weir approach
We look at your highly complex network of impacts – within the company, across the supply chain and beyond the supply chain – and uncover the clear way to deliver efficiency and effectiveness improvements, whilst maintaining equitable relationships with key stakeholders and accurate decision support data. Our supply chain management expertise helps reduce inventory as well as cost without eroding service.
Inventory management may involve the development of a dynamic stock policy. Understanding the true end-to-end cost of servicing each customer, sales channel or product – to identify non-added value activity to reduce avoidable costs. Essential for Channel/Distribution reviews. We develop your ‘Cost To Serve’ process to reflect the environmental cost of your operations and determine your Triple Bottom Line Profit.
The diagram below shows the complexity of issues to be managed at three levels: within the company (pale blue inner ring), across the supply chain (middle ring), and beyond the supply chain (outer ring). Total supply chain Sustainability demands management of all four quadrants and at all three levels.
