6 3 Business level: supply chain developments Buck Consultants International,

7 More flexible and tailored supply chains The dynamics that impact the supply chain are numerous Rapidly and unpredictably changing markets A shift from mass markets to fragmented niche markets Fast growth of e-commerce/ e-fulfilment Ever shortening product life cycles Growing pressure on financial impact of supply chain performance Continuous pressure to squeeze waste (both time and cost) out of the supply process Supply chain management becomes core business Buck Consultants International,

8 Why focus on strategic network design? Strategic Tactical Operational 80% 20% The majority of the value chains lifecycle costs are locked-in at the start Distribution network Inventory locations Assembly network In-house vs. contract manufacturers Logistics suppliers Decisions Source: AMR Value Buck Consultants International,

9 It is not only about costs! Service objectives & constraints have to be taken into account as well Service objectives Leadtime requirements Network scenario s Operations costs Transport costs Cost objectives Order fill requirements Network optimization Inventory costs Capacity flexibility Information availability Tax and duties Fixed vs. variable Existing facilities Existing partners Existing sources Laws & regulations Design constraints Buck Consultants International,

10 Example: BCI Client in FMCG industry FROM TO RESULTS Overall SC cost from 132M to 117M (- 12%) 7M saving in transport spend FROM TO Locations Transport consolidation Not in place 2M saving Purchasing Decentral Centralized Inventory High > 20% reduction On Time In Full <70% >95% OTIF from below 70% to >95% Buck Consultants International,

12 Main supply chain configurations From centralized control and execution (the 90 s) EDC-structure To decentralized control and execution BDC-structure RDC-structure Buck Consultants International,

13 1-tier Today: Decentralized NETWORKS with central control towards product-market specific, hybrid supply chains Characteristics Primary production Off-shore or Near-shore 2-tier Secondary production Distribution Inventory Planning Customer service Shared services In market/low cost region Regional DC s Direct sourced Satellite structure / X-dock European inventory Centralized Regionalized Centralized / regionalized Buck Consultants International,

14 Network Re-Design in Healthcare Industries Centralized Central + Sats Regionalized Fully centralized High value / low volume products Often parcel type of distribution Main inventory in central warehouse Local sats replenished by EDC Sometimes combined with postponement Strategic stocks in country DCs Medium - High value products Regional DCs (4-6) supplying a fixed region Logical clusters of countries Big Pharma portfolios Hub spoke per region Regional DCs (4-6) supplying a fixed region Logical clusters of countries Differentiated portfolios Buck Consultants International,

16 How do companies select a DC location? Cost factors + Quality factors Such as: Labor costs Transportation costs Occupancy costs Incentives Taxes etc Such as: Labor availability Labor flexibility Business climate Infrastructure Utilities etc Buck Consultants International,

20 Crucial questions for DC locations/regions Q1 : Q2 : Q3 : What is the competitive position of your DC/ location/ region? For what type of DCs in what industries is your DC/region a good fit? For what kind of e-fulfilment centers does your region qualify? Buck Consultants International,

21 Cost-Quality matrix Q1: What is the position of your DC location/ region? Example: Project specific site selection results for a distribution center in perspective: cost-quality assessment Total costs in million Euro for first 3 years (all operating costs -/- investment incentives) Location E Location D Location B 100 Location F Location G Location H Location I 110 Location J Location C Location A Weighted quality scores Buck Consultants International,

22 Q2: For what types of DCs, in what industries is your DC/region a good fit?

25 5 Conclusions On a global level the European/ German economies will play a smaller role On a business level, the supply chain has become a priority in the board room In a supply chain network the costs for production plants and distribution centers are more crucial than transportation costs Supply chain configurations depend on product, customer and transportation characteristics Buck Consultants International,

26 For positioning a DC location/region three crucial questions have to be answered What is the competitive position of your DC location/ region? For what type of DCs in what industries is your DC/region a good fit? For what kind of e-fulfilment centers does your region qualify? Buck Consultants International,
