2. Strategic Supply Chain Design Analytical Tool Computer-Based Mathematical Model of Entire Supply Chain Crosses Organizational and Functional Boundaries Relevant History From the Early 1970s (Warehouse Location Models) Today Often Called a Network Design Tool This perspective is far too limited Too much emphasis on location questions True situation Comprehensive strategy Considerable tactical power 2

4. Multiple Stages of Production Raw Materials In Production Line 1 Production Line 2 Process 1 Production Line 1 Production Line 2 Process 2 Finished Products Out Intermediate Product Production Lines Finished Product Production Lines

5. Overall Objective To find the set of facilities and transportation links and associated product flows that either minimizes total costs or maximizes total profit… Subject to the Following Restrictions (Constraints): Procurement availability limits Manufacturing capacity limits DC throughput limits Storage limits Inventory targets Customer service limits Other transportation link restrictions Energy consumption limits Carbon emission limits Solver Engine: Mixed Integer Linear Programming

6. Classic Issues: Structure, Ownership, Mission Number and Location of Raw Material Suppliers Plants/Vendors/Copackers Production Lines/Processes DCs Transportation Links and Flows Inbound: suppliers to plants Transfers: between facilities Outbound: DCs to customers Facility Ownership Issues Owned, leased, public, 3PL Outsourcing Facility Mission Issues Commodities procured, manufactured, distributed per location Costs and capacities

7. Beyond Location: Critical What If Issues Business Decision/Policy Issues Supply Chain/Marketing Integration S&OP Energy/Carbon Footprint/Sustainability Supply Chain Vulnerability/Hardening Strategic Sourcing Customer Profitability (Cost-to-Serve) Mergers and Acquisitions Master Capacity Planning Transportation Policy International Trade Long Range Planning Seasonal Demand/Supply Product Introductions/Deletions Strategy is About MUCH More Than Locations!!

8. Summary of Inputs Network Description Commodities Raw materials Intermediate products (WIP) Finished products (typically aggregated from SKU level) Locations Raw material suppliers Plants/vendors/co-packers Drill-down to lines/processes DCs/pools/cross-docks/ports Drill-down to lines/processes Customers (typically aggregated from ship-to level) Other Customer channels Time periods Customer Demands Table by customer/channel/finished product/time period

9. Summary of Inputs (cont ) Transportation Costs Inbound (supplier to plant) Transfer (between facilities) Outbound (to customer) Facility Data (technically optional but critical) Mission data (eligibility of commodities) Procurement costs, capacities & violation penalties Manufacturing costs, capacities & violation penalties DC location costs, capacities & violation penalties Bills of material Inventory targets and holding costs Lock open/close options Other (optional) Duties, taxes, currency conversions Selling prices (needed for profit max studies) Customer service limits Data scaling options Energy usage and carbon emission factors & constraints

10. Thoughts About Inputs So…Where Are You Going to Get This Stuff? Demand and historical flows: transaction histories Transportation: typically left to the specialists Duties and taxes (say what?)…go find a specialist (if you can) Facility: ah, theres the rub Facility Data Types of costs Fixed Variable (per unit of network flow) Step functions (CAUTION)

11. Thoughts About Inputs (cont) Procurement Fixed costs: unlikely Variable costs (by raw material) Capacity limits Source: typically right from the contracts Manufacturing Overall plant Fixed costs Variable costs Drill down to production line/process Fixed costs Variable costs (by intermediate and finished product) Capacity limits (by line and by line/IP and line/FP) Line rates (by line/IP and line/FP) Bills of material Sources: accounting, ABC, engineering, experts, statistical analysis Distribution Center (also cross-docks, pools, ports) Fixed costs Variable costs (by product) Capacity limits (throughput, storage, SKU count) Sources: accounting, ABC, engineering, experts, statistical analysis

12. Final Thoughts About Inputs ABC Costing is a Powerful Leg Up Strategic decisions deserve the best possible inputs Not a necessary condition but it sure helps. To wit… Data Accuracy is of Utmost Importance These are boardroom issues Millions are routinely at stake Defending the numbers is inevitable. To wit… When The Opposition Rears Its Head (AND IT WILL) Not demand data (unassailable if transaction-based) Not freight costs (mystery mercifully left to the experts) Not duties and taxes (even greater mystery left to the experts) Facility costs and capacities (everyone is an expert) Your Model Will Appreciate Accuracy As Well Major consulting/support challenge: cookie cutter models Tremendous influence on optimization algorithm performance

14. Unification of Marketing & Operations Evolution of Network Tools & Perspective Finished goods distribution Integrated logistics Supply chain management Unify procurement, manufacturing, and distribution Integrate Remaining Silo: Marketing Managerial objective: rigorous development of corporate strategy Mathematical (and managerial) objective: profit maximization Expand Target Audience to Senior Management Above the pay grade of CLO and CMO Direct impact on C-level metrics 14

15. Unification of Marketing & Operations The Rationale Intense Pressure to Maximize (Protect?) Profit Intense Competition Across Functions For Limited Resources The S&OP Message Is Valid: Need For Cross-functional Business Process Integration. BUT… Typical Weaknesses of S&OP Demand given via forecast from marketing Limited supply chain scope: often manufacturing only No ability to redesign and/or rebalance entire network Weak supply/demand synchronization methodologies Typical procedure: warring spreadsheets 15

16. Unification of Marketing & Operations The Solution Start With Comprehensive Supply Chain Design Perspective BUT: Traditional Analytics: Demand is Given Suppose We Relax The Assumption Of A Fixed Forecast… Add Marketing Campaigns or Initiatives Can represent any marketing activity Advertising campaigns Coupon distribution and/or product samples Sales force adjustments Typically customized by channel and brand Composition Budget: fixed and variable costs Overall & market-level activity limitations (min/max limits) Response coefficients by product (projected lift) Add Selling Prices 16

17. Unification of Marketing & Operations The Solution Analytics Response May optionally buy additional demand Must pay for Marketing campaign Full supply chain fulfillment costs Will Accept IF Profitable and IF Feasible Will Reject If Unprofitable and/or Infeasible Objective: Profit Maximization Final Result: Profit Max Corporate Strategy 17
