Salter Supply Chain Information

I thrive on solving complex problems in the supply chain and am passionate about sharing knowledge and best practice about supply chain network design (SCND). SCND is an important field of supply chain management but it is not widely implemented nor is it well documented. I would like it to become as commonplace in the industry as, for example, demand planning or route optimisation. A company manages their inventory to minimise their working capital but still meet specific levels of inventory availability. Similarly, a company can design their supply chain network to minimise their supply chain network costs but still meet specific delivery service levels. SCND helps companies: • Ensure their supply chain network can support their projected growth • Ensure their supply chain network supports their service offering • Identify synergies from mergers and acquisitions • Mitigate risk • Reduce carbon emissions • Reduce supply chain costs and so increase revenue SCND is a methodology that allows you to model your current supply chain network in software and then run ‘what if’ scearios to understand the impact of changes to your supply chain without having to make those changes in the real world. Please get in touch to find out how SCND and Salter Supply Chain can help your organisation. Melanie - Salter Supply Chain
