Manufacturing
challenges today
The late David Noble, ex chief executive of the Chartered Institute of Procurement and Supply once said “Products are beginning to be commoditised quickly and can be produced in small labour units. Those that execute better and faster than others will fare better.”
Supply chain management
David Noble’s statement has never been more true. Manufacturing has become a very competitive industry whilst customer expectations continue to rise. In this demanding era we live in, customers continuously expect things to be done better and faster. This includes shorter lead times to receive their orders, putting a huge amount of pressure on supply chains. This means it has become crucial for any manufacturer to carefully manage their supply chains.
Supply chain management systems
Careful supply chain management includes the management and planning of stock, information and finances. Manufacturers cannot afford inadequate materials planning which in turn leads to increased back orders, placing them in a re-active mode.
The ever increasing, competitive supply chain market demands organisations be intuitive, efficient and adaptable to trends and demand.
The days are gone where not having a proper supply chain management system in place could suffice. – “If you don’t keep up and if you don’t take service your customers when you say you would, someone else will.”
