14 The Organizational Challenge How to reach benefit targets? Re-negotiate with Logistics suppliers Economies of scale Reduction of no. of service suppliers Process standardization

15 First step: Cost control Remove all transport suppliers invoices from sales offices NSL to post all transport costs into the books of the mills (1st phase) NSL to handle all logistics cost and perform self billing for all mills (2nd phase)

16 Cost Control & KPI Reporting (Pre 1999) Transport Vendor Sales Office Mil l Approx 13 man years In general poor controls. US domestic not controlled by NSE Poor validation Non core activity Little analysis Timing difference No details Incorrect accruals No extra costs Poor budgets KPI?

17 Cost Control & KPI Reporting NSL Vendor NSL Mil l Approx 4.5 man years Excellent controls US domestic controlled by NSE Full validation Timely postings & accruals KPI Reporting & diagnosis Full analysis of extra costs Accurate budgeting

18 Benefits Accurate record of where & why costs are being incurred. Opportunity to carefully monitor contract performance by vendors. Additionally the review of extra costs will allow the opportunity to consider the value of certain transport routes and give a balanced view of delivery times. The sales organisation can review with customers the additional costs that are incurred due to customer specific requests. The information gathered will give concrete explanations for deviations on the KPI s. For example currency fluctuations, market mix, poor utilisation of vehicles etc.
