Procured Goods Stock (PGS) represent ~1b€

Following COVID crisis, need to reinforce PGS analytical capabilities to:

  • Better understand evolution at part level​
  • Identify optimization drivers & relevant target​

Stock forecasts methodology required to define relevant stock level (value / coverage) on each part and take concrete optimization actions :

  • Visibility within next 12m window ​
  • Emergency stop ordering for parts with high coverage or for future non movers​
  • Ordering parameters adjustments (safety time, safety stock,…)​
  • Support to negotiations with suppliers to be protected​

Need to change paradigm for 400 operational supply officers to develop stock coverage culture

key elements

  • Procured goods stocks with optimization potential up to x0m€
  • Rate change impacts on stock simulated

Full PGS diagnosis with main drivers (demand,requirements, quality issues, transfers…)​

Forecast models developed at part level, integrating demand horizon flexibility (firm, flexible, provisional) and complex flow management (internatco, drop shipment…)​

Recommended stock level proposed according to:

  • Operational risks to be covered​
  • Stock availability & rotation (non-movers,…)​

Drivers for optimization identified at PN level with an overall reduction of X0% vs baseline through:​

  • Ordering parameters adjustment​
  • Scrapping opportunities (current & future)​
  • Process improvement​
  • Data quality​

dynamic & recurring dashboard to report & deep dive :​

  • at management level​
  • at supply officer level (ordering param.)​
  • with a granularity down to part number​

Operational routines set up with supply officers to steer stock performance & priority optimization actions
