Full textThis research project proposes a supply management model in a consumer goods company in Lima, Peru, to improve stock control and avoid raw materials stockouts and overstock. A Kraljic matrix was used to identify products based on their criticality considering material segmentation, warehouse capacity and times, and ABC segmentation to classify products on each quadrant of the matrix. This project also focuses on defining purchasing and supply strategies in each quadrant of the matrix. This model involves the development of three processes that are related to a new purchasing strategy: economic order quantity, lot-for-lot ordering, and just in time. This new system is based on a more accurate inventory because continuous improvement attracts employees’ attention and engages them in reducing the number of manual notifications made by operators every month. Moreover, after implementing the new procedure for recording inventories, the inventory record was 87% accurate, whereas, in the past, the inventory was not counted and was performed by employees of other areas.

The aim of this study was to observe how companies acting in fashion market measure, evaluate and emphasize their inventory in financial statements. Moreover, how they deal with the risks of its fast obsolescence. The fastest alterations in fashion tendencies; the capacity or not to anticipate, identify and answer to changes in consumers?? tastes; the interruptions in the flow of goods, that could cause breaks in the supply chain; the growing competition; the unpredictability in consume, and planning errors upon the development of new collections could be harmful for stored products waiting for its customers ??? all of them force companies to charge prices lower than their costs. The user of financial statements needs to be warned of such risks, because they could affect the existing inventory. To reach the proposed aims, the practices adopted in the main international companies of this sector were analyzed, by means of published financial statements, and compared with those adopted by Brazilian companies listed in Bovespa Stock Exchange. In addition, through interviews, it was possible to identify the treatment given to the same theme by Brazilian companies unlisted in Bovespa Stock Exchange. It was clear that international and national listed companies correctly attend to what is established in accounting standards. On the other hand, in national unlisted companies, the adoption of these practices needs development. It was also possible to verify that financial statements of American companies provide their users with more details concerning risks involving operations with goods, when compared to information provided by European and Brazilian companies.
O objetivo deste estudo foi observar a forma pela qual as empresas atuantes no mercado da moda mensuram, avaliam e evidenciam seus estoques nas demonstra????es financeiras e de que maneira tratam os riscos de sua r??pida obsolesc??ncia. As mudan??as cada vez mais r??pidas nas tend??ncias de moda; a capacidade ou n??o de se antecipar, identificar e responder ??s altera????es nos gostos dos consumidores; as interrup????es no fluxo de mercadorias que podem causar rupturas no supply chain; o acirramento da concorr??ncia; a imprevisibilidade do consumo e, os erros de planejamento na elabora????o de novas cole????es podem ser danosos para os produtos estocados ?? espera de seus consumidores, obrigando as empresas a praticar pre??os muitas vezes inferiores ao seu pr??prio custo. O usu??rio das demonstra????es financeiras precisa ser informado a respeito desses riscos, pois estes podem impactar os estoques existentes. Para alcan??ar os objetivos propostos, foram analisadas, por meio das demonstra????es financeiras publicadas, as pr??ticas cont??beis adotadas nas principais empresas internacionais desse segmento, comparando-as ??quelas adotadas pelas empresas brasileiras, listadas na Bovespa. Complementarmente, atrav??s de entrevistas, buscou-se identificar o tratamento dado a esse mesmo tema pelas empresas brasileiras n??o listadas na Bovespa. Ficou claro que tanto as empresas internacionais, quanto as nacionais listadas, atendem corretamente ao que est?? estabelecido nas normas cont??beis, enquanto que nas empresas nacionais, de capital fechado, a ado????o dessas pr??ticas cont??beis, ainda carece de evolu????o. Pode ser observado, ainda, que as demonstra????es financeiras das empresas norte-americanas fornecem, aos seus usu??rios, mais detalhes a respeito dos riscos inerentes ??s opera????es com mercadorias, quando comparadas ??s informa????es fornecidas pelas empresas europeias e brasileiras.

Full textToday many companies face problems with inventory management. The importance of adequate inventory management has become more evident, while organizations try to reduce their costs and increase their service level.
This master thesis was conducted at VSM Group AB in Huskvarna, which is a manufacturer that produces and delivers sewing machines to a worldwide market. VSM Group AB has problems with the management and the refilling of the work-in-process (WIP) inventories and also with lack of information about component balance and location in the production and material planning system.
Therefore, the purpose of the thesis was to improve the control of the WIP inventories and the information about the components in the production and material planning system. In order to achieve the purpose, interviews and observations were performed, theories in inventory management were reviewed and the production process was studied.
Afterwards solutions for improvements were proposed. To solve the management and refilling problem, a kanban ordering system was proposed, which would use kanban cards to order components from the storages to the WIP inventories. To develop the component information displayed in the production and material planning system, an additional feature was proposed to the system. So instead of showing one inventory balance for each component, the system would display balances for three different places in the factory: the goods arrival and quality control area, the storage and the production.
The proposed solutions can provide several benefits to the company. The kanban ordering system can increase the material handlers’ efficiency, set a standard refilling quantity and be a tool for reducing the WIP inventory levels. The more detailed information in the production and material planning system can improve the decision making for the purchasers and planners and give the ability to measure the flow and level of material inside the factory.
These solutions will provide a more appropriate inventory management to the company, with better control of the components and improved information quality.

The Largo manufacturing site of the Raytheon Company is a pure production facility with limited collocated design capabilities. All of the initial design and development engineering is done in four external sites - Marlborough, MA; St. Petersburg, FL; Towson, MD; and Ft. Wayne, IN - before final specifications are "thrown over the wall" to Largo for production. Because manufacturing is geographically sequestered there are numerous organizational and informational disconnects. Accountability is not easy with four distinct program management offices; each has equally distinct incentives and needs, and expects stellar results from the Largo production staff. Materials normally account for approximately 75% of the total costs for a standard manufacturing operation. Largo is no different; however its material costs are often even higher than this benchmark for unique reasons. Difficulties arise for Largo in structuring its supply chain agreements because the four design sites have disparate material requirements and harbor unique supplier preferences. A salient symbol of the challenges faced by the site's supply chain management group is the millions of dollars worth of inventory that sits in the vast factory storeroom. Current inventory floor accuracy is at an unacceptable level of 85.3%.
(cont.) Getting rid of the inventory monster and its attendant problems is no trivial task, and certainly not one that could be accomplished in a six month LFM internship. But steps were taken to help get the ball rolling in the right direction and to generate some quick wins in the near term. The first phase of the project involved the creation of a novel sourcing agreement with a key CCA supplier. The second phase involved optimizing the replenishment system to minimize material flow, implement pull, and increase material accountability. The final phase involved creation of a financial cost v. benefit model to standardize the site's methodology for making sourcing and partnering decisions in the future. All of these topics are discussed in this thesis as shown in the table of contents. Overview of main internship project tasks: The internship project was scoped to fit within the six and one half month allotted time period and was structured around the main problem points I have just briefly touched upon: 1. Identify optimal candidate supplier and part with potential for significant SMI cost savings. 2. Structure SMI supplier partnership agreement. 3. Implement and automate calculation of kanban system to control inventory 4. Create SMI cost v. benefit tool to prioritize future projects according to expected returns on investment.

Full textSödra Interiör has a plant in Kallinge which manufactures flooring and panels of pine. As production has increased, inventory levels has increased. This has increased the risk that wrong raw material is used for the wrong product. The purpose of this study is to develop an approach that reduces the risk that wrong materials are used. The study shows that something must be done that ensure that correct materials are used for the right product. Stock level and information quality are other concerns identified. Key concepts to solve problems are: well organized, information, advanced planning and space. Improvement proposals are different in nature, where some improvements could be made immediately with few resources, while others take more time and require more resources. The main suggestions for improvement is about creating more space in the warehouse, clearly mark up of the timber package contents and better information quality.

Full textSyfte: Studiens syfte är att undersöka hur materialflödet för en högfrekvent komponentfamilj till en volym- och produktmässigt varierad monteringslina kan effektiviseras. För att kunna besvara denna frågeställning har syftet delats in i två problemfrågor: Vilka faktorer påverkar materialflödets effektivitet för en högfrekvent komponentfamilj fram till monteringslina? Hur kan ett effektivt materialflöde för en högfrekvent komponentfamilj utformas? Metod och genomförande: För att kunna besvara studiens syfte har en fallstudie genomförts parallellt med en litteraturstudie. Litteratur inom områdena material- och lagerstyrning, transporter och materialhantering har studerats. Fallstudien, som har genomförts på ett fallföretag, baseras på en processkartläggning i kombination med intervjuer och observationer. Insamlad data från fallstudien har analyserats med stöd från studerad litteratur. Studiens resultat: Faktorer som begränsar ett materialflödes effektivitet fram till monteringslina har identifierats. En stor andel av materialflödets totala cykeltid kunde kopplas till onödiga arbetsmoment och ineffektiv materialhantering. Ytterligare bidrog lagrets utformning och styrning till långa ledtider samt onödiga och ineffektiva transporter. Bristande utformning och integration av materialflödets delar visade sig vara en betydande orsak till begränsningen av dess effektivitet. Med detta som utgångspunkt har en ny utformning föreslagits där helhetsperspektiv och integrering har varit centralt. En ny lagerutformning, i form av materialtorg, samt en transportlösning med trucktåg utefter tidsbestämd rutt, reducerar materialhantering och antalet transporter. Tillämpningen av ett dragande flöde där monteringslinornas efterfrågan styr materialpåfyllnad, reducerar lagernivåer samt antalet buffertlager i materialflödet. Implikationer: Studiens syfte har uppnåtts genom att båda problemfrågorna har besvarats. Genom att identifiera negativa påverkansfaktorer kan förutsättningar skapas för utformningen av ett effektivt materialflöde. Studien visar att det på fallföretaget finns förbättringsmöjligheter för effektivisering av materialflödet fram till monteringslina. Då enbart ett företag studerats kan resultatet av studien och dess förmåga att skapa vetenskapligt värde, ur ett större perspektiv, anses begränsad. Rekommendationer: För vidare studier kan det vara av intresse att studera flera företag med liknande problematik för att öka studiens generaliserbarhet och förmåga att kunna presentera slutsatser med vetenskapligt djup.

Full textENGLISH ABSTRACT: Problems with stock control have arisen since the amalgamation of the four local governments in the Helderberg Basin. Management and control of stock are important as stock is considered as cash. It is therefore necessary that local governments pay attention to the continuous upgrading of existing systems for the purchase and storage of stock as well as the control of it and the facilities. The purpose of stock control is to ensure that the existing stock levels are sufficient to enable the local government to execute its functions effectively. This study points out that problems experienced are minimised and could even be eliminated by applying the JIT (Just-in-Time) principle. Statistics have shown that the JIT principle could be applied with great success within the Helderberg Municipality and that approximately R4,36m could be available for alternative application. For the Helderberg Administration JIT could mean minimising excess stock in such a way that mostly stock items with re-order times of eight weeks will have to be kept in stock. * Since 5 December 2000 the Helderberg Municipality is included in the City of Cape Town and is now known as Helderberg Administation.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Ná amalgamasie van die vier munisipaliteite in die Helderbergkom word probleme met voorraadbestuur ondervind. Voorraadbestuur is belangrik omdat voorraad as kontant beskou word. Dit is daarom noodsaaklik dat munisipaliteite voortdurend aan die opknapping van bestaande stelsels van voorraadaankope en opberging, asook aan voorraadbeheer en fasiliteite aandag sal skenk. Die doel van voorraadbestuur is om te verseker dat die beskikbare voorraad voldoende is om die plaaslike owerheid in staat te stelom funksies effektief uit te voer. Hierdie navorsing dui daarop dat probleme wat ondervind word, verminder en selfs uitgeskakel sal kan word deur toepassing van die JIT(Just-in-Time)-beginsel. Statistiek dui daarop dat die JIT-beginsel met groot sukses binne die Helderberg Munisipaliteit toegepas sal kan word en ook bykans R4.36m. beskikbaar kan stel vir alternatiewe aanwending. Vir die Helderberg Administrasie kan JIT beteken dat oorbodige voorraad so geminimaliseer word dat meestal voorraaditems met herbesteltye van ag weke in voorraad gehou hoef te word. * Helderberg Munisipaliteit is vanaf 5 Desember 2000 deel van die Munisipaliteit van Stad Kaapstad en staan tans bekend as Helderberg Administrasie.

Full textThe overall objective of this study is to analyze asset tracking of permanent property belonging to UTFPR, in all of its 13 campuses, as an Public Governance tool. The specific objectives were: to understand the principles of Public Administration and principles of Public Governance; describe the procedures, technologies and resources employed in asset tracking at UTFPR; attest that the principles of Public Governance through asset tracking at UTFPR have been observed; and lastly, propose solutions to improve the activity of asset tracking at UTFPR based on the principles of accountability and transparency of Public Governance. Because they are intended to meet a collective interest, public resources must be administered so as to maximize the benefits to the collectivity, abiding by the principles of legality, impersonality, morality, disclosure and efficiency. Internal and external control mechanisms have been implemented to prevent administrative acts from straying from this ideal. Asset tracking is a type of internal control that makes it possible to maintain updated information on permanent public assets, such as information on acquisition, asset record keeping and records on asset write-offs. To meet the objectives of the study, it was decided upon the qualitative research study method using the case study technique. A total of 21 servants were identified as responsible for asset tracking at the 13 UTFPR campuses. Another three servants were identified as contributing to the activity of asset tracking. The study used surveys, documental analysis, and analysis of technological devices. Content analysis was used as the method to examine collected materials. It was demonstrated that permanent asset tracking at UTFPR is currently not an efficient tool of Public Governance, considering the non-existence of transparency with regard to asset tracking. Likewise, the fulfillment of the principle of compliance has been compromised, as analytical data are not provided regarding the goods that comprise the assets of UTFPR. Moreover, the information provided in shortened format in management reports does not reflect reality, considering that inventories are not carried out in some campuses. In order to overcome these challenges, proposals include training, creation of norms regarding asset tracking, studies on the possibility of adopting new technologies, and effectively performing inventories in the campuses.

Falta de materiais é um problema comum na cadeia de suprimentos, impactando o nível de serviço e eficiência de um sistema de inventário. A identificação de materiais com grande riscos de falta antes da ocorrência do evento pode apresentar uma enorme oportunidade de melhoria no desempenho geral de uma empresa. No entanto, a complexidade deste tipo de problema é alta, devido ao desbalanceamento das classes de itens faltantes e não faltantes no inventário, que podem chegar a razões de 1 para 100. No presente trabalho, algoritmos de classificação são investigados para proposição de um modelo preditivo para preencher esta lacuna na literatura. Algumas métricas específicas como a área abaixo das curvas de Característica Operacionais do Receptor e de Precisão-Abrangência, bem como técnicas de amostragem e comitês de aprendizado são aplicados nesta tarefa. O modelo proposto foi testado em dois estudos de caso reais, nos quais verificou-se que adoção da ferramenta pode contribuir com o aumento do nível de serviço em uma cadeia de suprimentos.
Material backorder (or stockout) is a common supply chain problem, impacting the inventory system service level and effectiveness. Identifying materials with the highest chances of shortage prior its occurrence can present a high opportunity to improve the overall company’s performance. However, the complexity of this sort of problem is high, due to class imbalance between missing items and not missing ones in inventory, which can achieve proportions of 1 to 100. In this work, machine learning classifiers are investigated in order to fulfill this gap in literature. Specific metrics such as area under the Receiver Operator Characteristic and precision-recall curves, sampling techniques and ensemble learning are employed to this particular task. The proposed model was tested in two real case-studies, in which it was verified that the use of the tool may contribute with the improvemnet of the service level in the supply chain.

Full textInom tillverkande industri är kapital bundet i maskiner, verktyg och material av olika slag samt färdiga varor och allt däremellan, även kallat produkter i arbete. Företag strävar efter att minimera det uppbundna kapitalet i dessa enheter i syfte att få till stånd en kostnadseffektiv produktion. Samtidigt som man vill minska mängden uppbundet kapital är det viktigt att bibehålla en stabil produktion. En förutsättning för detta är att produktionsprocessernas råvaror och verktyg alltid finns tillgängliga. Skärande verktyg måste alltid finnas tillgängliga och lättåtkomliga för att minimera stilleståndstiden mellan produktionsordrar, och om en maskin går sönder måste de rätta reservdelarna kunna tillhandahållas snabbt. Den här studien har utförts för att undersöka när det skulle vara fördelaktigt för en tillverkare av tunga fordon att implementera ett förbrukningsstyrt system för beställning av skärande verktyg. Studien fokuserar mer specifikt på de förutsättningar som krävs för att ett förbrukningsstyrt system ska kunna implementeras och på de potentiella fördelarna med ett sådant system.En fallstudie har genomförts på Scania Transmission Machining i Södertälje, Sverige, den avdelning som tillverkar koniska växlar och andra transmissionskomponenter för Scanias europeiska produktion. I fallstudien ingår en diagnos av den aktuella lagerstyrningssituationen i syfte att identifiera svagheter i systemet och potentiella förbättringsområden. Vidare har simuleringar utförts, baserade på transaktioner från förrådsenheten som förser produktionen med verktyg. Detta syftade till att undersöka hur ett förbrukningsstyrt lagerstyrningssystem kan upprättas i praktiken och för att ta utreda vad vinningen i så fall skulle vara.Resultaten från studien visar att det finns många anledningar för Scania Transmission Machining att implementera ett förbrukningsstyrt lagerstyrningssystem för skärande verktyg. Först och främst avslöjade diagnosen av den aktuella lagerstyrningssituationen flertalet brister i systemet. Dessutom visade simuleringarna av verktygens lagernivåer på förbättringar när det gäller antalet dagar med brist och samtidigt en lägre genomsnittlig lagernivå. Slutligen har vinsten med att övergå till en förbrukningsstyrd modell uppskattats uppgå till ca 1 000 000 kronor.

TCG is a multinational pharmaceutical company. As part of its drive to adopt lean manufacturing methodology in the plant and to stay competitive in the industry, TCG plans to effectively maximize its capital assets and reduce the warehouse space from 3500 to 1500 pallet spaces. This thesis focuses on the raw materials procurement and ordering methods in TCG. We study the accuracy of the demand forecasts for the finished products. And we investigate methods to improve procurement and inventory control. We use a 2-factor classification method to rank the 38 types of raw materials in the warehouse in terms of their importance based on their past procurement costs and the amount of warehouse space they occupied. We propose a just-in-time approach for the 9 most important items by having timely orders that match closely to the production schedule. A continuous review model is used for the next 11 items of less importance and a periodic review model is used for the remaining 18 items, which are of the least importance. We discuss and justify the assumptions used in our analysis. We provide a few further recommendations on how to improve inventory control based on observations of the current practices. The overall result shows that it might be possible to reduce the amount of space occupied by raw materials from the current average of 1076 pallets by 72%.
