> [ download | (in) SUPPLY CHAIN DESIGN AND OPTIMIZATION FOR COCA-COLA HBCI. ( ~) vom OVERVIEW: (downtoad ) (@) Coca-Cola HAC is one of the largest investors among manufacturers of consumer goods. The compari owns 10 modern factories fr the production of soft drinks and juices in Moscow and the Moscow region, St. Petersburg, Samra, Yekaterinbura Rostov region, Novosibirsk, Krasnoyarsk and Vladivostok. Coca-Cola HBC purchases 96% ofall ingredients and production materials from local suppliers firstBit | NFP is a large consulting company located in the CIS region. One of its key business areas is planning, risk analysis, and simulation-based optimization solutions development. CHALLENGE: Coca-Cola HBC is managing and improving its distribution network in one of the CIS region's countries. This approach facilitates business flexibility and reliability, but complicates product flows across the regions. They are influenced by instability of regional transport rates, seasonality, and excessive centralization. Besides that, increase in supply chain complexity boosts storage, transportation, and delivery costs. ‘The multilevel nature of the company’s supply chain also added to its complexity. For instance, the products could be delivered to wholesale of retail customers directly from a plant, ia cross-docking, or using a regional warehouse ‘To cut costs and ensure logistics optimization across the country, Coca-Cola HBC's management decided to create a model of the seis ‘current supply chain. The model had to consider corporate push- pull policy at different levels of the supply chain and help ‘optimize inventory in warehouses. Loca ive Development of the model was assigned to NFP consulting ‘company, The model was supposed to help:finding the best supply options. = le >) Reduce the cost of goods movement and processing wat G omnia "Pts CEN) Dynamically calculate safety stock in accordance with the u.2ul ae ae demand without sacrificing service level ‘This supply chain optimization approach would enable Coca- Cola HBC to scale up modern supply chain planning practices to the whole country's network, increase its capacity, and gain deeper insight into logistics investments. SOLUTION: When selecting software for supply chain and logistics optimization, Coca-Cola HBC got familiar with several tools and ‘opted for anyLogistix, Compared to its competitors, anyLogistix supply chain optimization software provided more ‘opportunities for logistics optimization and would also allow the consultants to model supply chain scenarios in detail Also, the consultants and the customer appreciated the software's easy-to-use interface, built-in set of reports, and its extensibility. The consultants wanted to apply the developed model and anyLogistix supply chain optimization to: Optimize the second-tier warehouses’ locations in order to minimize the direct delivery costs. Select the optimal type of transshipment: cross-docking or warehousing. Optimize the number and the cost of ‘warehouse - warehouse" routes. Define optimal "warehouse - wholesale client” routes, Determine optimal safety stock level in the warehouses to maintain the target level of service. At the beginning of the project, the consultants examined data on supply chain performance and came up with a model concept that included architectural design and hierarchy of dimensions and metrics. Risk management procedure was developed as wellInthe second phase, te projec team bullt a model prototype and tested it on limited data. The epimaon errs aloe or eight note ite ane e™ ne @ valiiyof model operation compared to eal processes. In order to speed up testing of a large number of scenarios, same of them were created automatically. For this purpose, the consultants created scripts in Python to verity the input data and linked lists of objects, as well as to develop test scenarios from the templates. lick image to enlarge In the third phase, the team started scaling up the developed scenarios. To that end, they created a supply chain model of 200,000 clients. Next, they joined those clients who were in close vicinity to each other into clusters using anyLogistix Greenfield Analysis capabilities. When analyzing routes to clients, the algorithms excluded economically inefficient routes. For suitable routes, the required number of vehicles and their loads were calculated. Within this phase, the team of madel developers were tackling five business challenges:Choose production strategy = The team wanted to gain insight into how the changes in performance of mutvaly redundant frodawoeads yous) affect the operations in the entire supply chaln. To that end, production constraints foreach sit;ineluding 2-range of items and tine productivity limitations, were reflected in the model and the values ofthe supply chain KPI's were defined ‘Then, the team took advantage of anyLogistix supply chain optimization capabilites and calculated optimum constraints for sites based on their capacity and demand. Choose supply policies In order to address this challenge, the consultants optimized product flows at different levels of the supply chain, taking into account production constraints, warehouses and transport capacity, safety stock, frequency of delivery and other factors, They also compared different supply strategies: direct supply by different means of transport, storage in production sites warehouses, local delivery to third party logistics provider's warehouses, cross-docking, and indirect supply via distributors Test the improved network of warehouses ‘Supply chain optimization experiments enabled the consultants to calculate the optimal number and location of second tier warehouses. In order to prove the experimental results effectiveness, they compared the costs of the current warehouse topology and the suggested updated variants. In doing so, they took into account two transportation options: by distributors and cross-docking. Plan last-mile delivery strategy Previously, the customer company supplied retailers directly, but considered ather options of product supply through regional and federal distribution centers (DCs). The consultants used the model to estimate the cost savings that could be made by switching to the new retailer maintenance strategy and the number of trucks that would be needed in this case. Test the push-pull strategy and calculate safety stock The project team developed an extended MRP logic of stock movement based on demand forecasting and embedded it in the model. They tested utilization levels of the partners’ 3PL warehouses, which were supposed to maintain the target stock level according to the pull poticy.At the same time, the volatility in production output was smoothed by the pushand pepo of warenaue lization taal etinated now te sevice level woul agg a 8) OUTCOME: ‘The supply chain optimization model developed in anyLogistix enabled the consultants to manage the supply chain allowing for different planning horizons. Coca-Cola H&C obtained a decision support system Which could test many logistics and production hypotheses strategies ina few hours. As an output, the user would get a new supply chain configuration, the required number of vehicles, and their optimal load ‘The company’s supply chain managers now can choose the most profitable points for direct delivery relying on detailed calculations of expenses for each store of the network, ‘The model can be easily readjusted, so the Coca-Cola HBC specialists will be able to use it to test out new supply chain configurations aiming to: Reduce the number of second tier warehouses, eg., by applying cross-docking instead, Reduce last mile delivery time. Reduce transportation unit costs.
