What are the problems for band saw & mill drill supply chains?
COVID caused global interruptions and delays to OEM supply chains that showed weaknesses in the management of OEM manufacturing, shipment and delivery systems for band saws and mill drill machines. OEM manufacturers experienced increasing difficulties in sourcing supply chain materials, and traditional bulk orders and fixed schedules failed to deliver products to customers. Many of these problems remain for companies that have not adopted a more flexible approach to supply chain management.
Why are flexible shipments an important feature of supply chains in 2024?
Traditional supply chains work to fixed schedules and workflows, which is why COVID had such a big impact on global supply chains. In 2024, we can learn from the problems that hit supply chains during the pandemic by implementing flexible supply chains with flexible shipments. This enables manufacturers to respond to changing demands quickly and reduce financial and operational risks.
- Just in time production for flexible order volumes
- Staggered delivery schedules
- Rapid response to market trends
- Absorbing seasonal variations
- Accurate orders
- Timely delivery
Managing peak demand with flexible shipments
Flexible shipments enable rapid response to peak and variable demand periods around holidays and festive seasons. Responding to market trends is vital for retailers to ensure the right inventory reaches the right customers without unnecessary delays. Flexibility of order quantities and lead times builds flexible supply chains that are more efficient, and improves profitability for our global OEM customers.
Do you have confidence your OEM manufacturer can manage flexible shipments?
Post COVID supply chain management is improved by flexible shipments and just-in-time production to staggered delivery schedules based on planned purchases. OEM manufacturers now need confidence to plan for inventory to minimize the risk of future supply chain disruptions, but this requires a strong and reliable partnership with your OEM manufacturer, to know that they will deliver on time, every time.
