Application of supply chain management is
an important reason of gain visibility in the process of raw materials in the
entire production and distribution. With good visibility, production
arrangement will be more specific. Cheap information may lead to improved
customer service and expensive inventory cost savings.
Although had improved the visibility of
the supply chain management, inventory visibility of still not reached the
degree of due. In fact many companies in the supply chain there is a big blind spot.
Here are four of the supply chain's largest and most serious breach of:
1, purchase supply chain is usually not
contact shipping supply chain. From the factory's point of view, this means
that the truck down parts, and then returns empty, but in fact they can load
the shipment. From a global perspective, the company usually put the product
export to the products and raw materials import country. As a result, they did
not make full use of two-way mobile the huge advantage of lower sea freight
charges.
2, producers have no effective way to
instantly to modify submitted order raw materials suppliers. Even with the best
production facilities, on the day of the production, need parts will change
frequently. Unfortunately, the order once submitted to supplier, will not
change. A better solution might be to use electronic order system in concrete
production.
3, many enterprises have many factories,
and the same supplier, but not all factories overall demand for raw materials.
Many factories restocked never coordinate transport. Due to each factory small
order separate transportation, the transportation cost under budget.
4, although many large companies products,
inventory, distribution is global, there are few of globalization are the
company's inventory visibility. In domestic, many companies can from the recent
factory or warehouse the goods transport to customer, because there is always a
focus almost order processing system and centralized storage system connection.
However, for international transport is not the case. For international orders,
generally no centralized order processing system. If there is a concentration
of the order processing system, also there are few centralized storage systems
to determine where to send goods. As a result, the international order fill out
very slowly and high inventory cost is unnecessary. Transportation cost is
higher than should have been.
Trade
Terms, also known as Price Terms, are a special term used in the long-term
international Trade practice to indicate the composition of transaction prices
and delivery conditions, and to determine the division of risks, liabilities
and costs between buyers and sellers.
When
import, export or transhipment goods enter or leave the customs territory of a
country, the formalities to be performed in accordance with various laws,
