Logistics/ Supply Chain Management.

The consulting area Logistics and SCM responds to an optimal integrated arrangement of all activities and structures in the value chain from raw material supplier to end customer.

Systematic analysis and optimization of physical and informational logistic processes and structures lead to reduced costs and improved performance.

 

Supply Chain ManagementSupply Chain ManagementSupply Chain Management offers the ideal flow configuration of material and information. This covers the complete logistics network of suppliers and customers, using qualified planning and communication technology. The goal is to optimize the value chain considering time, quality and costs.



Logistics AuditLogistics AuditA Logistics Audit identifies the capability of logistic systems and processes, shows possible weaknesses including their cause and room for improvement and thus offers an approach for further action. The goal is to outline the logistics and Supply Chain performance and specifically raise the value proposition of Supply Chains. Lean LogisticsLean LogisticsLean Logistics serve to delete all redundant procedures and activities that do not contribute to value creation. Process synchronization within a value chain leads to elimination of redundant procedures as well as reduced and accelerated throughput times revealing potential for cost optimization.

Spare Part LogisticsSpare Part LogisticsThe concept of Spare Part Logistics serves to carry out customized procurement, storage and distribution of spare parts using a self-contained system. The goal is to secure disposability of parts and short delivery times in an economically ideal way.
DeliveryLayoutMaterial Flow
ConceptsDelivery ConceptsDelivery Concepts determine physical and informational flows from supplier to customer differentiating between production asynchronous production procurement including storage levels and synchronous production procurement. The goal of an ideal Delivery Concept is to meet customers’ needs concerning on time supply of products considering minimum costs and turnover processes. PlanningLayout PlanningLayout planning carries out the areal arrangement of organizational units within a company. The goal is to secure an ideal flow of material, an optimal space utilization and layout flexibility considering the given restrictions. OptimizationMaterial Flow OptimizationMaterial Flow Optimization structurizes all production processes avoiding long distances, repacking processes and large material stock. Material flow optimization goes in hand with Layout Planning in order to avoid shortages through optimized arrangement and capacity utilization of transport and production units.






Network planningNetwork planningNetwork planning determines the structure of production and distribution networks considering locations, capacities, technologies and stochastic factors. The goal is to create transparency over the network, reduction of logistic costs as well as reduced delivery times and an improved service level. Supply PlanningSupply PlanningSupply Planning is part of Production Planning aimed at providing all potential factors needed with production and manufacturing (according to 6R). The goal is to reduce standstill periods by coordination of personnel planning, materials logistics and resource planning as well as to optimize capacity utilization, to save buffer areas and reduce stocks.
Distribution
Resource andTransportlogisticsDistribution logisticsDistribution logistics connect a company’s production logistics with a customer’s procurement logistics. This covers all activities to supply customers with required products according to logistically ideal criteria, differentiating between the number of distribution levels.
Capacity PlanningResource and Capacity PlanningResource and Capacity Planning covers demand and applications planning of resources and the related capacities in a versatile manufacturing environment. Capacity Planning is about production sequence planning considering the requirements and critical points as well as identification of corresponding delivery dates. optimizationTransport optimizationTransport optimization uses spezializedmethods to reduce transport expenditure caused by production planning and transport disposition. This includes optimization of location based supply relationships, ideal distribution of transport duties under given supply relationships as well as the determination of optimal procedures and technologies within distinct transport branches.
