“We have tremendously improved our supply chain management by reducing inventory,” explains a plant manager for a small company in Ohio. “We now use forecasting analysis to identify bottlenecks and constraints and rely on cross docking at our outside warehouse locations to reduce storage costs. We have reduced our inventory by over $500,000, thus increasing working capital.”“We better understand how to use our distribution replenishment system to plan product orders,” says the senior vice president of corporate logistics for a retail home furnisher in New York. “We are now able to reach 97% customer service level with the same or less inventory. And, we reduced on-hand inventory by 16% without any determination of fill rates.”
