SL Global - Supply Chain Consultancy

-20%

Source: Deloitte

Supply chain inefficiencies increase operational costs by up to 20%.

Most of that cost comes from processes controlled by individuals rather than repeatable, measurable systems.

Common problems

Does this sound familiar?

If any of these sound familiar, your supply chain is running on habit and memory rather than documented process.

Problem 1

Without an efficient ordering and forecasting process, you are either overstocked and paying for space you do not need, or understocked and losing sales you cannot recover.

Problem 2

Your sales team needs to know where stock is, when it arrives, and what the status is. Without a live, transparent system, every answer requires a phone call and nobody has a good one.

Problem 3

Your approval process is inconsistent. The wrong product gets ordered. The wrong product arrives. By the time anyone notices, there is no time to fix it, and the cost is significant.

Problem 4

Documentation cannot be located, so suppliers are not paid on time. Relationships that took years to build start to deteriorate because your internal process let them down.
