The right solutions start with the right questions:

  • How to identify constraints in the distribution and supply chain?
  • Which link in the chain has the lowest capacity and is causing a slowdown in the overall flow?
  • Where are the biggest delays and inventory accumulation occurring?
  • Which processes and activities impede the smooth flow of materials and information?
  • How to optimize the flow of material and information throughout the chain?
  • How to synchronize the different links in the chain and minimize demand fluctuations?
  • How to effectively manage inventory and minimize losses due to obsolescence or shortages?
  • How to use technology and information systems to improve visibility and control over material flow?
  • How to minimize the impact of variability and uncertainty in the supply chain?
  • How to deal with unpredictable fluctuations in demand, supply and production?
  • How to build flexibility and resilience into the supply chain?
  • How to effectively manage risks and minimize their impact on the entire chain?
  • How to build and maintain effective relationships with suppliers and customers?
  • How to share information and collaborate with supply chain partners?
  • How to align the objectives and interests of the different links in the chain?
  • How to build trust and long-term partnerships?
