2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY ACME will see a significant reduction in inventory cost with newly implemented information technology systems. ACME will warehouse merchandise more efficiently through a variety of methods such as structuring regional distribution centers to handle both home electronics and apparel. ACME will have more control and visibility of their logistics processes. SSCS’s findings herein conclude that ACME needs to “adapt or die” to compete in today’s lean and agile distribution industry. ACME will need to implement modern information technology to manage inventory replenishment/distribution, efficiently utilize distribution centers, and manage all transportation processes.

3 Implement Lean Six Sigma DMAIC -Define Opportunities -Measure performance -Analyze the opportunity -Improve performance -Control performance

4 Benefits of Lean Six Sigma Basic Principles of Six Sigma are common sense: Lower supply chain costs Reducing inventory/waste Better quality service, higher customer satisfaction and continuous improvement (SIPOC) Push VS. Pull (COPIS) Logistics System COPIS (Customer, Outputs, Process, Input, Supplier) Push Pull

5 ACME Adopts 4PL Mindset

6 Partner Factories must have: Proper manufacturing and logistics infrastructures Participation in respective FTA’s National Security programs Requisite Licenses/Certifications for Import/Export participation Willingness to integrate with ACME’s WMS CartonLogic barcode recognition system. Manufacturer Requirements

7 Apparel: Why Korea? - NAFTA does not include garment importation - Korea has developed a reputation as top-quality manufacturing nation - Faster transit time to Long Beach than from China or SE Asia -Stable labor and wages -US Ally Republic of Korea- United States Free Trade Agreement (KORUS FTA) -Garments duties fall from 16% in other Asian nations to… 0% in South Korea!!!

8 BCO Advantage Develop relationships with multiple carriers Minimum Quantity Commitment= 50 TEUs per carrier Benefits: 1.Reduced All-In Rates 2.Waived PSS Surcharges 3.No General Rate Increases ACME's past Ocean FCL Rates: Ex Busan to LAX/LGB USD 2500/20', USD 3150/40', USD 3480/40'HQ ACME's BCO Ocean FCL All-In Rates: Ex Busan to LAX/LGB USD 1455/20', USD 1820/40', USD 1847/40'HQ

9 CURRENT (LCL): ACME currently ships 10,637 cartons per year Total LCL Ocean Freight costs = $127,657 Freight cost per carton = $12.00 PROPOSED (FCL): 20’ container rate for Busan to Los Angeles is $1455 All-In Capacity for 430 apparel cartons per 20’ container = 25 containers/yr Total FCL ocean freight costs = $36,375 Freight cost per carton = $3.30 Total Annual Savings = $91,282 Three Year Savings = $273,846 Apparel: Why Ship FCL?

10 Home Electronics: Why Mexico? –Faster transit times enable a Just-In-Time distribution system –Avoid union labor issues in ports –No Harbor Maintenance Fee –Shared time zones - NAFTA: Home Electronics are DUTY FREE compared to current 9.3% duties ALSO… -Languages with similar script and linguistic roots -Lower carbon foot print through near shoring -Factory visits much easier

11 Home Electronics International Transportation Process Electronics manufacturers conveniently located along California- Baja California border Electronics purchased FOB and trucked to USA when DC inventory levels necessitate a purchase order equivalent to the volume of a 53’ FTL Trucked FTL from Baja to Novell in Rancho Dominguez, CA LA market DC serviced directly from Baja California Crossdocked at Novell with other ACME imports, trucked FAK in 53’ FTLs to regional DCs Total transit times from manufacturer to market is 2 to 7 days (1 day to LA market) CURRENT: Ocean transit times from China to Long Beach (16-18 days) 40’ FCL rates = $2065-3190

12 Annual Transportation Cost Comparison APPAREL Current: LCL to Store Door = $127,657 per year vs. Proposed: Busan to Novell =$36,375 per year Novell to Door =$9348 per year Savings: $91,282.00/yr HOME ELECTRONICS Current: FCL to Novell or Baltimore = $ 13,146,259 per year vs. Proposed: Tijuana to Novell 1272 53' trailers at $535+FSC = $680,520 per year Novell to Door =$2,835,519 per year Savings: $9,630,220/yr

35 Distribution Center Strategy SSCS believes that ACME’s system of 40 DCs is (A)unnecessarily large and (B) not flexible enough to implement lean principles. These two problems represent loss in productivity and wasteful spending. In response, SSCS will seek to: (1) Reduce the total number DCs (2) Regionalize ACME’s distribution system (3) Introduce efficiency to warehouse operations

36 DC Reduction Current DC NetworkProposed DC System Apparel from Asia

37 DC Reduction: Year One ACME will introduce racking to 11 selected regional DCs Racking will be installed during the low inventory months of January, February, and March to minimize distribution ops. disruptions.

38 A 5-stack racking system will double DC holding capacity, allowing ACME to warehouse more than 32,000 full pallets of inventory per 282,000 sq. ft. DC and 28,750 pallets per 250,000 sq. ft. DC. Reduced lead times from manufacturer to market coupled with CartonLogic IT purchasing, receiving, and order fulfillment integration capabilities will reduce need to store large inventories Because boxes and cartons will be bar-coded and scanned into the inventory system in country of origin, DC personnel will know contents of FAK in-bound FTLs. Upon delivery to DCs personnel will be ready to crossdock cargo and send outgoing FAK FTLs to retail stores. Year One (2013): ACME needs to invest $6,600,000 for steel racking systems for 11 regional DCs and $1,200,000 for 60 forklifts. Total investment of $7,800,000. Racking System

39 By introducing a warehouse racking system, ACME will be able to utilize its DC footprint in a more logical and efficient manner. 282,000 sq. ft. DCs will utilize 257,000 sq. ft. DCs or warehousing space. Remaining square footage set aside for staging, loading, break rooms, offices, fire clearance, etc. 250,000 sq. ft. DCs will utilize 230,000 sq. ft. for warehousing space. 250,000 sq.ft. DCs that service small markets (>80 stores) will be maintained to allow for future regional expansion (NW-Spokane, Rocky Mountains-Denver, Florida-Clearwater) and emergency warehousing space in the event of unforeseen disasters. Racking’s Relation to DC Reduction

40 In January 2013, one year’s advance notice of termination of lease will be given for the following DCs: -5 DCs @ 282,000 sq. ft: Detroit, Charleston, Little Rock, Edison, Springfield -10 DCs @ 250,000 sq. ft: Miami, San Francisco, Savannah, Kansas City, Raleigh, Phoenix, Baton Rouge, Rockford, Albany, Montgomery Starting April 1, distribution activities at the phased-out DCs will begin to move to regional DCs. This gradual phasing- out will occur in equal increments over the course of 9 months. Complete closure of these 15 DCs will be complete by January 1, 2014. Year One DC Phase-Out Plan (2013)

41 14 remaining non-essential DCs will be phased out in Year Two. Termination of lease will have been given at the end of June 2013. Thanks to existing racking infrastructure in regional DCs, movement of operations from this second group will begin during the slow months (January to March). Closure of these 14 DCs will be completed before peak summer inventory season starts in July Year Two DC Phase-Out Plan (2014)

42 ACME operates 10 DCs that contain 282,000 square feet of floor space and 30 DCs that contain 250,000 square feet of floor space. At cited market rates of $4.41 per square foot per year, ACME is spending $45,511,200 per year to lease 40 DCs. By reducing the total number of DCs to11 (5 at 282,000 square feet and 6 at 250,000 square feet) ACME will only spend $12,833,100 per year to lease its DC space. -2012 leasing costs = $45,511,200 -2013 total leasing costs = $45,511,200 -2014 total leasing costs = $20,550,600 -2014 vs. 2012 = $24,960,600 in savings -2015 total leasing costs = $12,833,100 -2015 vs. 2012 = $32,678,100 in savings Total 3 year lease savings = $57,638,700 Distribution Center Reduction and Lease Savings

43 2013: $224,488,800 (40 DCs)- $3,426,260 (Current IT)+ $65,720 (Carton Logic) 2013: Operating Costs = $220,820,820 2013 vs. 2012 = $3,360,560 in savings 2014: $99,302,200- $2,181,500 + $65,720= $97,186,420 operating costs 2014 vs. 2012 = $127,302,380 in savings 2015: $29,686,250– $942,227 + $65,720 = $28,809,743 operating costs 2015 vs. 2012 = $195,679,057<---Per year savings from here on Total 3 year savings = $326,341,997 Savings on DC Operating Costs (Separate of Leasing Costs)
