2 Introduction What is Softera Baltic Softera Baltic is an enterprise resource planning (ERP) software provider, located in Lithuania, Europe. Softera Baltic is a trustworthy Microsoft Dynamics Business Solutions Gold partner, delivering highquality IT services related to the Microsoft Dynamics NAV, CRM and Business Intelligence solutions. 2
3 Introduction What is SOFT4 SOFT4 is a registered brand describing software solutions for Distribution companies, Financial and Property Management sectors. There are 3 main verticals and 1 horizontal covered under SOFT4 brand: Soft4Leasing, a software solution for the asset finance companies; Soft4Microfinance, a core banking system for small and medium-size financial institutions; Soft4RealEstate, a property management software for the commercial property management companies. Soft4Inventory is a solution for the effective stock level management within NAV according to the best practices of the Theory of Constrains and LEAN methodology. 3
4 Introduction SOFT4 Partner Network There are about Microsoft Dynamics NAV partners worldwide. SOFT4 has partners in more than 30 locations and the network grows fast we add in average 5 partners per year. 4
5 Introduction Why Distribution companies, together with Manufacturing companies, take the biggest part among MS Dynamics NAV customers. Inventory management savings and improvements reflect significantly at the bottom line. There is programmed conflict regarding inventory management process in the company. Sometimes other inventory management concepts and tools, such as Min/ Max or Forecasting, do not work. 5
6 Inventory Management Approach
7 Inventory Management Approach Pull vs Push 7
8 Inventory Management Automation
9 Inventory Management Automation Inventory Management Automation Methods 1 Automated Forecasting Forecast quality is based on history, expecting it will be repeated in future. 3 Dynamic Buffer Stock buffers are monitored against consumption and dynamically readjusted accordingly 2 Min Max Specify minimum and maximum inventory levels; when the inventory level drops below the minimum, the action is required in order to bring the balance back up to the maximum. 9
10 AUTOMATION METHODS 1 Automated Forecasting 2 Min - Max 3 Dynamic Buffer Automated Forecasting Historical data is seldom reliable and repeatable. When stock is out, this leads to lost sales. 10
11 AUTOMATION METHODS 1 Automated Forecasting 2 Min - Max 3 Dynamic Buffer Automated Forecasting Historical data is seldom reliable and repeatable. When forecasting is made upon special deals and offers, this leads to overstock. 11
12 AUTOMATION METHODS 1 Automated Forecasting 2 Min - Max 3 Dynamic Buffer Automated Forecasting Summary: Data quality issues can t be solved 100% automatically; Each algorithm setup performs well only in certain cases and in certain periods of time; Forecast errors are unpredictable and could be significant; Therefore forecasts for every item must be revised by high competence staff. It is a costly and time consuming procedure. 12
13 AUTOMATION METHODS 1 Automated Forecasting 2 Min - Max 3 Dynamic Buffer Min - Max Main challenge is to find which item requires Min - Max level adjustment. Summary: Min and Max levels for each item must be adjusted manually; Min - Max levels must be adjusted after demand, lead time or replenishment cycle changes; Automatic Min and Max adjustments could be done using forecasting algorithms, with all the earlier described problems. 13
14 AUTOMATION METHODS 1 Automated Forecasting 2 Min - Max 3 Dynamic Buffer Dynamic Buffer PRINCIPLES Order ONLY what s been sold Stock is enough ONLY till the next replenishment Adjust inventory levels ONLY when the situation changes 14
15 AUTOMATION METHODS 1 Automated Forecasting 2 Min - Max 3 Dynamic Buffer Dynamic Buffer Adjust inventory 3 levels ONLY when the situation changes Demand changes Lead time changes Unreliable supply occurs Permanent customer is lost End date of item life-cycle changes Promotion campaign starts Reacting to the actions of the competitors Other factors 15
