Lifting planning maturity for a reverse supply chain
The context
National automotive parts recycler. A recycled-parts supply chain plans against uncertain supply as well as demand. Planning maturity and inventory visibility hadn't kept pace with the growth of the business.
What we did
- Delivered a supply chain planning uplift program across demand and supply planning
- Assessed inventory position and stocking approach across the network
- Defined planning processes, roles and supporting tools fit for a reverse supply chain
The results
- Uplifted planning operating model — processes, roles and tools
- Inventory assessment informing stocking policy
- Foundation for scalable planning as the network grows
