Event: CAST Aurora Showcase Series - Calculating the SKU inventory levels within the Network Design
CAST Aurora Showcase Series: Calculating the SKU inventory
levels within the Network Design
Wednesday 12th December 2012 at 9:00 and 14:00 UK
Time (Duration: approx 60 minutes)
This is the 14th CAST Aurora showcase webinar, aimed to provide
insight into next generation, network optimisation
functionality:
The Challenge:
'Best In Class' companies are customising their service offering
across different markets, channels and products in order to
minimise costs. This includes designing the correct warehouse &
transport infrastructure to meet target service lead-times, as well
as calculating the appropriate inventory requirements to meet
target product availability service levels.
The Opportunity:
Customers can now evaluate how network changes such as number
& location of warehouses, and alternative demand to warehouse
allocations can influence the level of 'demand risk pooling' at a
location and can review its subsequent impact on resulting SKU
level inventories. Similarly, in global supply networks, customers
can calculate the SKU level inventory requirements, arising from
switches in global sourcing with the associated changes in supply
lead times. Furthermore, CAST users can run alternative product
availability % service level scenarios on the network to generate
Cost-Service curves for individual SKUs.
The Solution:
Barloworld will demonstrate how CAST Aurora can use transaction
level demand data to calculate safety & cycle stocks at the SKU
level across the supply chain network, in order to understand how
different network configurations impact resulting network
inventories & costs.
