Forecasting & Supply/Demand Planning

  • 2 Month Lead time from vendors

  • Want to only carry 2 months of inventory

    • Would like to be able to identify categories based on turn around time

  • Would be nice to forecast what work orders are needed for the smaller pieces of wood.

  • Would like to set up safety stock levels

General

  • Evaluate each year what is needed

  • Bulk Purchases at the end of the year

  • Only one Vendor per Item

    • They don’t have multiple vendors they would order the same item from.

  • They receive a big savings for purchasing in bulk

    • 150K - 200K a year

    • But the downside to this is 28-40% of their cash is tied up in inventory

    • They currently carry about 6 months of inventory - they’d like to reduce to 2 months.

  • Only purchase from US and Canada

    • Very rarely overseas

  • 200 SKUs that they don’t keep in stock

    • Purchase as special orders as needed.

Blanket Purchase Order

  • Create based on what they think they need for that year.

Inventory

Warehouses

  • 2 warehouses

  • Overstock goes to one of these WH

  • Would like to manage inventory for each WH

    • One has a yard location

    • Rack Locations at Warehouse 1

      • Bulk Storage

    • Small Bin Locations at Warehouse 2

  • Phase 1 - Do not track individual bins

    • This would be too confusing to current emnployees

Work Orders

  • Long pieces of wood cut down into smaller sections

  • Tracked in feet

  • These smaller sections could be byproducts.

  • Right now they do inventory adjustments to manage this.

Financial Accounting

  • Multi-currency (USD and CAD)
