15 Supply Chain Metrics Source: Supply Chain Council Measure Description Best-in- Class Delivery performance Fill rate by line item Perfect orer fulfillment Orer fulfillment lea time Percentage of orers shippe accoring to scheule 93% 69% Percentage of actual line items fille 97% 88% Average Complete orers shippe on time 92.4% 65.7% Time from when an orer is place until it is receive by the customer 135 ays 225 ays Warranty cost Warranty expenses as a % of revenue 1.2% 2.4% Inventory Days of supply hel in inventory 55 ays 84 ays Cash-to-cash cycle time Asset turns Time require to turn cash use to purchase raw materials into cash receive from customers Measure of how many times per year assets are use to generate revenue 35.6 ays 99.4 ays 4.7 turns 1.7 turns 1a-15

16 Cash-to-Cash Cycle Time Integrates the finance function with purchasing, manufacturing, an sales/ istribution Cash-to-cash cycle time = Inventory ays of supply + Days of sales outstaning Average payment perio for material Procurement cycle Manufacturing cycle Sales an istribution cycle Purchase cost of material Accounts payable Raw materials inventory Work-in-process Finishe goos inventory Distribution inventory Accounts receivable 1a-16

17 ERP View of Cash-to-Cash Time ERP atabase Purchasing Accounts payable Manufacturing Inventory Cost of sales Cash-to-cash cycle time Sales an istribution Sales Accounts receivable 1a-17

18 Calculating Cash-to-Cash Time Average aily sales (S ) Accounts receivable ays (AR ) S = S AR = AR S Average aily cost of sales (C ) C = S CS Average ays of inventory (I ) I = I C Accounts payable cycle time (AP ) AP = AP C Cash-to-cash cycle time Cash to cash cycle time = AR + I AP 1a-18

19 Cash-to-Cash Example Sales over last 30 ays = $1,020,000 Accounts receivable = $200,000 Inventory value = $400,000 Cost of sales = 60% of total sales Accounts payable = $160,000 Cash to cash cycle time S = S = AR = AR S = C I = S CS I C 1,020, , = 34,000(0.6) = 400,000 = 34,000 = = = ,400 = 5.88 ays 20,400 ays AP 160,000 AP = = = 7. ays C 20, = AR + I AP = = ays 1a-19

20 The ERP Experience Eli Lilly an Company l Integration of a global company l Process improvement l Simplifie training l Strategic irection l Organizational flexibility l Set of global policies 1a-20

22 Concluing Principles The company must efine a comprehensive set of performance measures, with policies an goals that correspon to these measures. IT economies of scale can be obtaine from supporting fewer harware an software platforms. 1a-22
