An optimised supply chain is a very valuable asset to any business. Optimisation means that the situation or resource is used in the most effective way, so how does this translate into a supply chain, and what can you do to ensure yours is working seamlessly?
With every supply chain consisting of multiple elements, steps and stakeholders, effective management means that you need to be able to optimise each part of the process, not only to save costs, but increase efficiency and build in resilience to protect your brand reputation.
At CFG, our team has years of experience in delivering efficient and effective solutions that help businesses achieve their supply chain objectives.
Below, Diane Toft, Head of Customer Service and Stock Control shares some easy steps that will help with the process.
Perhaps the key to success is tackling one element at a time. If you don’t have the data available to make measured, informed decisions that would be a good place to start – putting in the reporting and analytics so you understand your business in more detail.
And, for outbound supply chains, choosing to use an independent 3PL provider can optimise that part of your business with very little investment on your part. By entrusting this to the hands of a 3PL partner that has experience, expertise and the processes and systems already in place, you’ll free up more time to be able to do what you do best, which is run your business.
Putting some, or all, of these tips in place will undoubtedly help towards the end goal of a fully optimised supply chain.
As Tom Peters said, “Almost all quality improvement comes via simplification of design, manufacturing, layout, processes and procedures.”
Carlton Forest 3PL works with customers to ensure the 3PL part of the supply chain is fully optimised through IT integration, open lines of communication, data reporting, real time information and working in partnership.
