EXHIBITORS AT Odette2012 11.00 POTSDAM I FLEXIBLE SUPPLY CHAIN SOLUTIONS IN A DYNAMIC MARKET ENVIRONMENT. THE RUSSIAN CASE STUDY Marc Brenneiser, Group CEO, STS Logistics Compared to other western markets, the logistics market in Russia can be characterized as being in the early stage of development. Understanding the differences and challenges as well as choosing the right logistics partner is the key to developing flexible supply chain solutions in this dynamic environment. Understanding the challenges of the Russian logistics market Identifying the trends in major logistics services in Russia (incl. warehousing, customs, transportation) Learning from business cases across industry sectors A SUPPLY CHAIN MODEL FOR EMERGING MARKETS THE BRAZIL CASE STUDY Gilles Thollot, International Logistics Specialist / Elena Presa, Order Fulfillment Expert, PSA Peugeot Citroёn Gilles Thollot and Elena Presa explain the general PSA model of the overseas supply chain, illustrated by the Brazil case study, starting from vehicle order fulfillment, impact on long distance supply and flow organization between PSA plants in Europe and Brazil. How to deal with long lead time, forecast accuracy, flexibility How to organize logistics flows (direct flows, consolidation centres, deconsolidation centre, TC yard management ) How to manage stock and in-transit parts A GLOBAL APPROACH TO NETWORK MANAGEMENT Karl Lukas, Head of Supply Chain Management & Logistics, Magna Whilst global sourcing and global markets are the name of the game in today s automotive industry, there is no doubt that they have dramatically increased the complexity of logistics networks. Variable demand and delivery frequencies coupled with longer lead times in markets such as Russia add complications enough, even before taking into account the management of different cultures, people and interfaces. To meet these challenges, Magna have taken action on a number of different fronts, including: - Getting the right people on board and trained - Achieving high data quality on part level - Introducing standardised processes, methods and tools How do deal with new markets and their requirements Leveraging synergies to bring benefits in terms of standardisation and manageability Supply Chain Design and Management as a basis for success [8]

Tuesday PM 13.30 POTSDAM I Aligning Green Requirements with Business Constraints John Buchanan, Emerging Market Sourcing Manager, Ford Frederic Robert, ALE Logistics - Environment Manager, Renault This session looks at the important issues surrounding the reporting of CO 2 emissions as they relate to the transport of parts, materials and vehicles in the automotive supply chain. Today there is confusion among the many players over the precise information required and what methods should be used to generate the necessary greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions data. The Odette project group comprising of OEM experts will shortly be publishing their Guidelines to help everyone in the industry, including freight transport operators, vehicle manufacturers, suppliers and logistics service providers, have a better understanding and to be in line with each other. The status of the group and the results so far will be presented along with a first look at the main contents of the Guidelines. In addition, there will be an overview of legislation surrounding this topic that comes into force in France in 2013, affecting all companies, along with a summary of the new European CEN standard on the subject to be released shortly. Why is it useful to report CO 2? Will these guidelines help to mitigate CO 2 emissions? this is a session not to be missed by anyone connected with automotive freight transport. 13.30 POTSDAM III Vehicle Information in the Cloud The Scania Perspective Fredrik Callenryd, Senior Business Analyst, Fleet Management Systems, Scania CV Today, vehicle manufacturers fit telematics units as standard in vehicles, with a subscription to fleet management services included in the price. This is done in order to offer more information services such as vehicle uptime and reduce repair and maintenance costs but telematics may also be used to more fully integrate the vehicle into the supply chain by providing information such as environmental impact, vehicle cost, real-time location of goods and handling deviations in order to meet JIT requirements. It is now time to introduce a vehicle independent standard that makes it easy to integrate vehicle information into the supply chain and also make vehicle information available from the Cloud. The Scania view on the connected vehicle How the vehicle can provide valuable information Integrating information from the vehicle into the business process [9]
THE IMPACT OF TELEMATICS AND CONNECTED VEHICLES ON THE LONG DISTANCE SUPPLY CHAIN Franck Molina, Product Strategy Soft Offer / Laurent Geray, Techwatch & Business Innovation, Renault-Trucks Franck Molina and Laurent Geray explore the key supply chain issues for the road transport industry and examine how telematics can improve flows throughout the whole chain from the supplier of the supplier to the customer of the customer with specific reference to the project being undertaken by Renault Trucks. They also speculate on future trends in the use of telematics. The holistic overview Telematic challenges New Telematic services offer & advantages 14.30 POTSDAM I THE OEM AFTERMARKET LOGISTICS Francesca Gamboni, VP After Sales Logistics, Renault Group Business tendencies in the automotive aftermarket Use of new technology What are the effects on parts manufacturing, parts distribution, parts sales? STANDARD FORECAST ACCURACY MEASUREMENT AND ITS APPLICATION TO IMPROVE SAFETY STOCK PLANNING Dr. Welf Schneider, Project Leader Supply Chain Management, Robert Bosch Automotive Aftermarket Volatile demands are a big challenge for aftermarket demand planning. Due to high fluctuation of real customer demands and due to market competition, forecast procedures often show poor accuracy resulting in adverse effects on both stock levels and service levels. The new Odette Forecast Accuracy Measurement guideline shows a forecast accuracy index between 0 and 100% which can directly be used as an input to adapt safety stock planning. Welf Schneider will demonstrate its application in a context of service level targeted safety stock planning where the influence of inaccurate forecasts can be corrected in order to achieve a given service level target. Standard forecast measurement principle Application of standard forecast accuracy measurement for safety stock planning New approach for stock optimization CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES OF INVENTORY MANAGEMENT IN THE AFTERMARKET ENVIRONMENT Pascal Born, Global Supply Chain Solutions Director, Caterpillar Logistics Inventory level, in an aftermarket parts supply chain, is the most important single lever that you can and should influence. Caterpillar Logistics will share how it has created its world Class levels of service, from its Inventory Management practices, through the development of People, Processes and Technologies. [10]
14.30 POTSDAM III THE ROADMAP TO GLOBAL MESSAGE IMPLEMENTATION Thomas Sieck, Volkswagen Sasan Baba-Esfahani, BMW Rolf Hartmann, Robert Bosch Udo Thienelt, Hella German OEMs and Suppliers have accepted the need to migrate from the old VDA messages to modern and up to date message structures that can support more sophisticated business processes. In a major effort, VDA logistics messages have been replaced by globally accepted standards: EDIFACT and XML messages. Triggered by large OEMs in dialogue with major suppliers, the move has also involved B2B service providers to ensure maximum support from all stakeholders. BMW, VW, Bosch and Hella explain the background to this initiatiative and look forward to future usage on a global level. EINVOICING STRATEGY AT BMW Manuela Reisenberger, BMW [11]
