– Hold logistics workshops to ensure requirements are understood (face to face or on-line)
– Test supplier communications and ability to receive and understand production schedules
– Carry out on site readiness reviews with specific suppliers (eg for high value/ complex commodities)
– Ensure parts shipment and receival processes are in place for tracking initial shipments from suppliers- provide them if needed.
Ongoing supplier support:
– Ensure part-tracking & shortage processes are incorporated in client’s manufacturing management systems
– Provide recommendations for supplier delivery metrics
– Work with suppliers to continuously improve performance and identify methods to optimise delivery reliability and reduce inventories
– Identify processes needed to address supply chain failures such as emergency premium freight actions
