AUTO CRIB • Based in Santa Ana, CA - USA • Developing systems since 1995 • Build all dispensing hardware & write software in house • Vital Factor / Quality Program: metrics for all employees (i.e.: track avg. support call back time) • Over 4000 systems: Boeing, Caterpillar, Gulfstream, Northrop Grumman
Goals Of Supply Chain Mgmt. • Uninterrupted flow of materials • Optimize inventory levels • Improve supply chain collaboration • Standardize items company-wide • Reduce total cost of procurement • Improve internal and external service levels
How a Dispensing System Helps • Extends supply chain to point-of-use, cost control no longer ends at back door • Enforces discipline on the shop floor - 100% accountability • 24/7 distributed, “pull” system • Drives the process to the correct level – reduce transaction fees • Provides automatic replenishment • Provides reports that assist in decision making
Why Popularity is Growing All of this is easily accomplished with POU Dispensing
Results • ExxonMobil: reduced spend on tube fittings & valves by 50% • Alcoa: 37% savings on MRO & PPE spend after lease & service fees • Trane: 38%, $380,000/yr. reduction in glove purchases • Haas Automation: 80% of all indirect material transactions go through dispensing machines, eliminating stock outs
