La soluzione

"Gestire con successo una catena di fornitura delle dimensioni di Shanghai PepsiCo richiede visibilità e coordinamento in tempo reale. Blue Yonder ci fornisce un modo rapido e automatizzato per regolare il sequenziamento affinché gli obiettivi di produzione, finanziari e di servizio siano costantemente raggiunti. Blue Yonder ci ha aiutato a soddisfare la domanda e a controllare l'inventario in modo più efficace integrando i dati in tempo reale provenienti dalle previsioni di vendita, dalla gestione delle scorte e dalla pianificazione della produzione. Abbiamo inoltre ridotto i costi di cambio produzione e i livelli di inventario, mantenendo al contempo elevati tassi di evasione degli ordini."
How Shanghai PepsiCo is boosting production efficiency whilst reducing waste across its operations.
Bilanciare la domanda complessa con le complessità della produzione presso Shanghai PepsiCo
In providing beverages to consumers in Shanghai and southern Jiangsu, China, Shanghai PepsiCo faces a host of production complexities compounded by its rapid growth. The manufacturer must balance shifting market demand for its broad product range with constraints that include materials supply, current inventory levels, manufacturing capacity, asset utilization, and warehouse and transportation availability.
The key is to create an ideal production sequence that matches the moving targets of supply and demand as precisely as possible. The order sequence must also be continuously and dynamically updated as upstream and downstream conditions change.
Previously, Shanghai PepsiCo was challenged to successfully manage this complexity when it relied on its planning team's manual analysis, experience, and intuition. Human planners were overwhelmed by the volumes of real-time data they needed to consider, including sales forecasts, inventory levels, turnover rates, materials availability, and end-to-end supply chain capacities.
The beverage leader turned to Blue Yonder and its service partner PWC, to implement Order Sequencing, a module within the Blue Yonder Production Planning solution set.
Sequenziamento degli ordini intelligente e redditizio basato su input in tempo reale
While human analysts are overwhelmed by large, complex datasets, Blue Yonder Order Sequencing is purpose-built to ingest real-time data from across the supply chain, conduct rigorous analysis, and arrive at an optimal order sequence in seconds. In addition, as new data is added, this intelligent solution automatically adjusts the order sequence to get production, profitability, and customer service goals back on track.
With a consistent focus on optimizing efficiency, resource utilization, time, and cost, Order Sequencing combines the strategic advantages of a stable order sequence with the practical benefits of an adaptable production scheduling solution.
The benefits for Shanghai PepsiCo have been significant. The manufacturer can match sales demand with product supply at a new level of precision and agility. Shanghai PepsiCo has also reduced its inventory investments, carrying costs, and expenses associated with production changeovers. At the same time, the company has consistently achieved high order fill rate (OFR) metrics.
The software implementation, managed by PWC, will enable Shanghai PepsiCo to increase production efficiency further, optimize inventory, improve customer service, and reduce waste and costs across its production operations.
