Ultriva User’s Conference 2012 Collaborative Planning and Execution Presented by Narayan Laksham
Planning and Execution • Planning group are data crunchers. They analyze • Sales Forecasts • Order history • Production capacity • Customer demands • Supplier lead times • Supplier performance • Safety stocks • Execution group are accountable for material availability and normally includes: • Procurement • Purchasing • Materials • Supply chain
Roles • Planning is batch oriented and will focus on: • Getting right set of data • Crunch complex algorithms • Analyze results • Finally predict what to do • Execution is real time and will focus on: • Procuring parts • Supplier performance • Responding to exceptions • Ensuring no part shortages • Groups operate as silos but planning drives execution • Result: • Batch oriented process drives a set of real time processes • This worked well when manufacturing was producing to stock
Ultriva ties planning and execution • Builds an iterative feedback loop
Key questions about future requirements • Part shortages • When • How frequent • Which parts • Option to expedite or not • Impact of demand change • Resizing • Spike orders • Temporary sizing • Permanent sizing • $$ impact
Identifying part shortages using a planning engine • Computes on-hand inventory for the planning period. It uses: • Current on-hand • Current lead time/transit time • Current Safety stock • Current lot size • Current Open orders and/or scheduled receipts • Highlights items with part shortages along with the amount and frequency • Provides recommendation on how to respond and when • Do “what if” analysis
Resizing for future requirements • Simulate the planned consumption • Simulate the Kanban replenishment for that consumption • Compute the sizing parameters for the consumption • Average Daily Demand • S/X ratio • Safety Stock • Compute the number of cards to be added/deleted using the above and: • Current lead time/transit time • Current lot size • Provide an option to automatically apply the master data changes
