Inventory
Postponement Strategy |
Baknor
helps our customers to achieve their goal of reducing, if not
eliminating, their exposure to custom electronic component inventory,
financially and operationally. Its unique user-friendly business
model allows Baknor to support requirements using the customer's
existing source of supply or through any one of its own audited
and approved partner companies, by managing critical and non-critical
parts to ensure operational and economic success. |
|
|
|
Baknor
ensures inventories are determined using cost-benefit analysis,
while taking into consideration the risk associated with a stock-out
position. Inventories are commonly overstocked by up to 30%, Baknor’s
aim is to eliminate overstocking and reduce your overhead.
Companies
are radically changing their business models to introduce innovation,
flexibility, and advanced supply chain capabilities into the
fabric of their business "ecosystem." Successful transformation
to an adaptive supply chain begins with developing a cohesive
strategy, design, and ecosystem roadmap.

Effective
demand and supply management is the centerpiece of an effective
supply chain. New technologies and management approaches in this
area have created new opportunities for companies in every industry.
Yesterday, management teams were focused on accurately forecasting
demand and or accessing demand signals as sales or consumption
occurred. Then, purchasing and production were synchronized to
demand patterns as accurately as possible. Today the approach
is shifting to managing demand based on upstream supply chain
visibility. Supply chain management and customer relationship
management are converging to generate new profit and revenue growth
opportunities. |
|
|
|
The
benefits to our customer are that of a "shared services"
environment. Our ability to manage multiple suppliers for specific
custom commodities allow for consolidation of non-core business
functions, enabling the organization to save money, improve service,
and concentrate on its primary business objectives. |
|
|
|
Many
times the price of the products to be purchased is no longer in
economic proportion to the internal handling costs, since they
are by far higher than the value of the goods themselves. In this
case it makes more sense, economically, to work on the costs rather
than on the prices. By utilizing the INTEGRATED SUPPLY targeted
to COST reduction, a PRICE optimization will also be simultaneously
achieved, thanks to the more favorable conditions obtained with
a concentration of purchase volume in the specific industries
shared by more consumers of this service.
Opportunities,
often requires changes to fundamental business models and operating
approaches. New management processes and technologies must be
combined effectively. Effective collaboration with customers
and their trading partners is also needed in many cases.
