## Overview
|
|
8
|
+
|
|
9
|
+
This guide applies to:
|
|
10
|
+
|
|
11
|
+
- Inventory optimization and warehouse management
|
|
12
|
+
- Demand forecasting and planning
|
|
13
|
+
- Supplier evaluation and relationship management
|
|
14
|
+
- Logistics and transportation management
|
|
15
|
+
- Cost modeling and financial analysis
|
|
16
|
+
- Risk management and mitigation
|
|
17
|
+
- Sales & Operations Planning (S&OP)
|
|
18
|
+
|
|
19
|
+
### Key Principles
|
|
20
|
+
|
|
21
|
+
1. **End-to-End Visibility** - Every node in the supply chain must be measurable and monitored
|
|
22
|
+
2. **Demand-Driven Planning** - Pull-based systems outperform push-based forecasts
|
|
23
|
+
3. **Total Cost of Ownership** - Unit price is never the full picture
|
|
24
|
+
4. **Risk Diversification** - Single points of failure are unacceptable
|
|
25
|
+
5. **Continuous Improvement** - Measure, analyze, optimize, repeat
|
|
26
|
+
|
|
27
|
+
### Core Frameworks

## Inventory Optimization
|
|
41
|
+
|
|
42
|
+
### Economic Order Quantity (EOQ)
|
|
43
|
+
|
|
44
|
+
```text
|
|
45
|
+
EOQ = sqrt((2 x D x S) / H)
|
|
46
|
+
|
|
47
|
+
Where:
|
|
48
|
+
D = Annual demand (units)
|
|
49
|
+
S = Ordering cost per order ($)
|
|
50
|
+
H = Holding cost per unit per year ($)
|
|
51
|
+
```
|
|
52
|
+
|
|
53
|
+
### Example EOQ Calculation
|
|
54
|
+
|
|
55
|
+
```text
|
|
56
|
+
Annual Demand (D): 10,000 units
|
|
57
|
+
Ordering Cost (S): $50 per order
|
|
58
|
+
Holding Cost (H): $2 per unit/year
|
|
59
|
+
|
|
60
|
+
EOQ = sqrt((2 x 10,000 x 50) / 2)
|
|
61
|
+
EOQ = sqrt(500,000)
|
|
62
|
+
EOQ = 707 units per order
|
|
63
|
+
|
|
64
|
+
Number of Orders/Year: 10,000 / 707 = ~14 orders
|
|
65
|
+
Order Frequency: Every ~26 days
|
|
66
|
+
```
|
|
67
|
+
|
|
68
|
+
### Reorder Point (ROP)
|
|
69
|
+
|
|
70
|
+
```text
|
|
71
|
+
ROP = (Average Daily Demand x Lead Time) + Safety Stock
|
|
72
|
+
|
|
73
|
+
Safety Stock = Z x sigma_demand x sqrt(Lead Time)
|
|
74
|
+
|
|
75
|
+
Where:
|
|
76
|
+
Z = Service level factor (1.65 for 95%, 2.33 for 99%)
|
|
77
|
+
sigma_demand = Standard deviation of daily demand
|
|
78
|
+
Lead Time = Supplier lead time in days
|
|
79
|
+
```
|
|
80
|
+
|
|
81
|
+
### ABC/XYZ Classification
|
|
82
|

|
|
87
|
+
| A | 10-20% | 70-80% | Tight control, frequent review |
|
|
88
|
+
| B | 20-30% | 15-20% | Moderate control, periodic review |
|
|
89
|
+
| C | 50-70% | 5-10% | Simple control, infrequent review |
|
|
90
|
+
|
|
91
|
+
**XYZ Analysis (by demand variability):**
|
|
92
|
+
|
|
93
|
+
| Class | CoV Range | Demand Pattern | Forecasting |
|
|
94
|

### Forecast Accuracy Metrics
|
|
134
|
+
|
|
135
|
+
```text
|
|
136
|
+
MAPE (Mean Absolute Percentage Error):
|
|
137
|
+
MAPE = (1/n) x SUM(|Actual - Forecast| / Actual) x 100
|
|
138
|
+
|
|
139
|
+
Bias (tracking signal):
|
|
140
|
+
Bias = SUM(Actual - Forecast) / SUM(|Actual - Forecast|)
|
|
141
|
+
|
|
142
|
+
Bias near 0: Forecast is balanced
|
|
143
|
+
Bias > 0: Consistently under-forecasting
|
|
144
|
+
Bias < 0: Consistently over-forecasting
|
|
145
|
+
```
|
|
146
|
+
|
|
147
|
+
### Accuracy Benchmarks

### Collaborative Forecasting (CPFR)
|
|
157
|
+
|
|
158
|
+
```text
|
|
159
|

### Dual-Sourcing Strategy
|
|
222
|
+
|
|
223
|
+
```text
|
|
224
|
+
Primary Supplier: 70% of volume (best cost/quality)
|
|
225
|
+
Secondary Supplier: 30% of volume (geographic diversity)
|
|
226
|
+
|
|
227
|
+
Trigger for Rebalancing:
|
|
228
|
+
- Primary delivery < 90% on-time for 2 consecutive months
|
|
229
|
+
- Quality defects exceed 1% for any shipment
|
|
230
|
+
- Natural disaster or geopolitical risk in primary region
|
|
231
|
+
- Primary capacity utilization > 85%
|
|
232
|
+
```
|
|
233
|
+
|
|
234
|
+
### RFQ Process
|
|
235
|
+
|
|
236
|
+
```text
|
|
237
|
+
Step 1: Define requirements and specifications
|
|
238
|
+
Step 2: Identify qualified suppliers (minimum 3)
|
|
239
|
+
Step 3: Issue RFQ with evaluation criteria
|
|
240
|
+
Step 4: Receive and normalize bids
|
|
241
|
+
Step 5: Conduct technical evaluation
|
|
242
|
+
Step 6: Negotiate with shortlisted suppliers
|
|
243
|
+
Step 7: Award and contract execution
|
|
244
|
+
Step 8: Supplier onboarding and qualification
|
|
245
|
+
```

|
250
|
+
|
|
251
|
+
### Transportation Mode Selection
|
|
252
|
+
|
|
253
|
+
| Mode | Cost/Unit | Speed | Best For |
|
|
254
|
+
|------|-----------|-------|----------|
|
|
255
|
+
| Ocean | Lowest | 14-45 days | Bulk, non-urgent, intercontinental |
|
|
256
|
+
| Rail | Low | 3-10 days | Heavy goods, domestic long-haul |
|
|
257
|
+
| Truck (FTL) | Medium | 1-5 days | Palletized, full loads |
|
|
258
|
+
| Truck (LTL) | Medium-High | 2-7 days | Partial loads, regional |
|
|
259
|
+
| Air | Highest | 1-3 days | Urgent, high-value, perishable |
|
|
260
|
+
|
|
261
|
+
### Mode Selection Decision Tree
|
|
262
|
+
|
|
263
|
+
```text
|
|
264
|
+
Is it urgent (< 3 days)?
|
|
265
|
+
├── Yes → Air freight
|
|
266
|
+
└── No → Is it intercontinental?
|
|
267
|
+
├── Yes → Is it time-sensitive (< 21 days)?
|
|
268
|
+
│ ├── Yes → Air or Air-Ocean hybrid
|
|
269
|
+
│ └── No → Ocean freight
|
|
270
|
+

### Decision
|
|
341
|
+
Supplier A has lowest TCO despite not having lowest unit price.
|
|
342
|
+
Supplier B's low unit price is offset by international shipping and quality costs.

|
|
503
|

| KPI | Formula | Target | Frequency |
|
|
504
|
+
|-----|---------|--------|-----------|
|
|
505
|
+
| Perfect Order Rate | Orders with no errors / Total orders | > 95% | Monthly |
|
|
506
|
+
| Inventory Turns | COGS / Average Inventory | 8-12x | Monthly |
|
|
507
|
+
| Cash-to-Cash Cycle | DIO + DSO - DPO | < 30 days | Monthly |
|

| Forecast Accuracy | 1 - MAPE | > 80% | Monthly |
|
|
509
|
+
| Supplier OTD | On-time deliveries / Total deliveries | > 95% | Monthly |
|
|
510
|
+
| Freight Cost % | Freight cost / Revenue | < 5% | Monthly |
|
|
511
|
+
| Warehouse Utilization | Used space / Total space | 80-90% | Weekly |

### Days Metrics
|
|
515
|
+
|
|
516
|
+
```text
|
|
517
|
+
DIO (Days Inventory Outstanding) = (Avg Inventory / COGS) x 365
|
|
518
|
+
DSO (Days Sales Outstanding) = (Accounts Receivable / Revenue) x 365
|
|
519
|
+
DPO (Days Payable Outstanding) = (Accounts Payable / COGS) x 365
|
|
520
|
+
|
|
521
|
+
Cash-to-Cash Cycle = DIO + DSO - DPO
|
|
522
|
+
|
|
523
|
+
Example:
|
|
524
|
+
DIO: 45 days (inventory sits 45 days)
|
|
525
|
+
DSO: 30 days (customers pay in 30 days)
|
|
526
|
+
DPO: 60 days (we pay suppliers in 60 days)
|
|
527
|
+
Cash-to-Cash: 45 + 30 - 60 = 15 days
|
|
528

## Common Pitfalls
|
|
533
|
+
|
|
534
|
+
### 1. Optimizing Silos Instead of the Whole Chain
|
|
535
|
+
|
|
536
|
+
- **Wrong**: Purchasing buys in bulk for discounts; warehouse overflows; carrying costs eat the savings
|
|
537
|
+
- **Right**: Evaluate total landed cost including carrying, handling, and obsolescence risk
|
|
538
|
+
|
|
539
|
+
### 2. Treating Forecasts as Commitments
|
|
540
|
+
|
|
541
|
+
- **Wrong**: Building exactly to forecast with no buffer
|
|
542
|
+
- **Right**: Forecast is a best guess; plan for variability with safety stock and flexible capacity
|
|
543
|
+
|
|
544
|
+
### 3. Choosing Suppliers on Price Alone
|
|
545
|
+
|
|
546
|
+
- **Wrong**: Award 100% to lowest bidder
|
|
547
|
+
- **Right**: Use TCO analysis; factor in quality, reliability, risk, and total service cost
|
|
548
|
+
|
|
549
|
+
### 4. Ignoring Demand Variability
|
|
550
|
+
|
|
551
|
+
- **Wrong**: Using average demand for all planning
|
|
552
|
+
- **Right**: Segment by ABC/XYZ and apply different strategies per segment
|
|
553
|
+
|
|
554
|
+
### 5. Reactive Risk Management
|
|
555
|
+
|
|
556
|
+
- **Wrong**: Scrambling when a disruption happens
|
|
557
|
+
- **Right**: Map risks proactively, maintain BCP, conduct tabletop exercises quarterly
|
|
558
|
+
|
|
559
|
+
### 6. Over-Relying on Single Sources
|
|
560
|
+
|
|
561
|
+
- **Wrong**: One supplier, one factory, one shipping lane
|
|
562
|
+
- **Right**: Dual-source critical items; diversify geographically; maintain qualified alternates

## Scheduling Philosophy
|
|
6
|
+
|
|
7
|
+
The calendar is the executive's most visible commitment tool. Treat it as a strategic asset, not a first-come-first-served queue.

## Time Blocking Rules
|
|
32
|
+
|
|
33
|
+
| Block Type | Duration | Purpose | Protection Level |
|
|
34
|
+
|------------|----------|---------|-----------------|
|
|
35
|
+
| Deep Work | 2-3 hours | Strategic thinking, document review | High - decline all but emergencies |
|
|
36
|
+
| Meeting Blocks | 30-60 min | Scheduled conversations | Medium - allow priority overrides |
|
|
37
|
+
| Buffer Time | 15-30 min | Transition, prep, catch-up | Medium - protect between meetings |
|
|
38
|
+
| Flex Time | 1-2 hours | Overflow, ad-hoc needs | Low - available for scheduling |
|
|
39
|
+
| Personal | As needed | Breaks, personal commitments | High - non-negotiable |
|
|
40
|
+
|
|
41
|
+
## Conflict Resolution
|
|
42
|
+
|
|
43
|
+
When two meetings conflict:
|
|
44
|
+
|
|
45
|
+
1. **Check Priority Tier**
|
|
46
|
+
- Tier 1: Board, CEO, critical clients - always wins
|
|
47
|
+
- Tier 2: Direct reports, key stakeholders - usually wins
|
|
48
|
+
- Tier 3: Informational, optional - reschedule first
|
|
49
|
+
|
|
50
|
+
2. **Evaluate Consequence**
|
|
51
|
+
- What happens if we miss each meeting?
|
|
52
|
+
- Can either be delegated?
|
|
53
|
+
- Can either be shortened?
|
|
54
|
+
|
|
55
|
+
3. **Resolution Options**
|
|
56
|
+
- Reschedule the lower-priority meeting
|
|
57
|
+
- Send a delegate with briefing notes
|
|
58
|
+
- Request async update instead of live meeting
|
|
59
|
+
- Split attendance (join for critical portion only)
|
|
60
|
+
|
|
61
|
+
4. **Communicate Promptly**
|
|
62
|
+
- Notify affected parties immediately
|
|
63
|
+
- Offer alternative times within 48 hours
|
|
64
|
+
- Provide context without over-explaining
|
|
65
|
+
|
|
66
|
+
## Timezone Management
|
|
67
|
+
|
|
68
|
+
### Standard Practices
|
|
69
|
+
|
|
70
|
+
- Store all times in the executive's home timezone as primary
|
|
71
|
+
- Include timezone abbreviations in all invites: "3:00 PM EST / 12:00 PM PST"
|
|
72
|
+
- Maintain a timezone reference sheet for frequent contacts
|
|
73
|
+
- Account for daylight saving transitions (update twice yearly)
|
|
74
|
+
|
|
75
|
+
### Scheduling Windows
|
|
76
|
+
|
|
77
|
+
| Region Overlap | Window (EST) | Best For |
|
|
78
|
+
|----------------|-------------|----------|
|
|
79
|
+
| US East + West | 12:00-5:00 PM | Internal US meetings |
|
|
80
|
+
| US + Europe | 8:00-11:00 AM | Transatlantic calls |
|
|
81
|
+
| US + Asia | 7:00-9:00 AM or 8:00-10:00 PM | APAC coordination |
|
|
82
|
+
| Europe + Asia | 6:00-8:00 AM EST (their afternoon) | Delegate if possible |
|
|
83
|
+
|
|
84
|
+
## Recurring Meeting Audits
|
|
85
|
+
|
|
86
|
+
Conduct quarterly audits of all recurring meetings:
|
|
87
|
+
|
|
88
|
+
### Evaluation Criteria
|
|
89
|
+
|
|
90
|
+
- Does this meeting still serve its original purpose?
|
|
91
|
+
- Is the executive's presence required, or can they delegate?
|
|
92
|
+
- Could the frequency be reduced?
|
|
93
|
+
- Could the duration be shortened?
|
|
94
|
+
- Are the right people attending?
|
|
95
|
+
- Is there a clear agenda and outcome?
|
|
96
|
+
|
|
97
|
+
### Recommendations
|
|
98
|
+
|
|
99
|
+
After evaluation, classify each meeting as:
|
|
100
|
+
|
|
101
|
+
- Keep as-is
|
|
102
|
+
- Reduce frequency
|
|
103
|
+
- Shorten duration
|
|
104
|
+
- Delegate attendance
|
|
105
|
+
- Convert to async update
|
|
106
|
+
- Eliminate
|
|
107
|
+
|
|
108
|
+
## Common Pitfalls
|
|
109
|
+
|
|
110
|
+
### Over-Scheduling
|
|
111
|
+
|
|
112
|
+
Wrong: Fill every open slot with meetings.
|
|
113
|
+
|
|
114
|
+
Right: Protect 30% of the calendar for deep work, transitions, and unexpected needs.
|
|
115
|
+
|
|
116
|
+
### No Buffer Time
|
|
117
|
+
|
|
118
|
+
Wrong: Schedule back-to-back meetings with zero transition time.
|
|
119
|
+
|
|
120
|
+
Right: Build in 15-minute buffers between meetings for prep and decompression.
