Successful Supply Chain Strategies
Successful Supply Chain Strategies
A recent Andersen Consulting study revealed six different, but equally successful,
supply
pp y chain strategies.
g

 Market Saturation Driven: Focusing on generating high profit margins, through


strong brands and ubiquitous marketing and distribution.

 Operationally Agile: Configuring assets and operations to react nimbly to


emerging consumer trends along lines of product category or geographic region.

 Freshness Oriented: Concentrating on earning a premium by providing the


consumer with product that is fresher than competitive offerings.

 Consumer Customizer: Using mass customization to build and maintain close


relationships with end-consumers through direct sales
sales.

 Logistics Optimizer: Emphasizing a balance of supply chain efficiency and


effectiveness.

 Trade Focused: Prioritizing "low price, best value" for the consumer (as with
the logistics optimizer strategy but focusing less on brand than on dedicated
service to trade customers).

such areas as pricing, promotional support, customer service levels, 
delivery standards, handling return merchandise, and life‐cycle 
support. The primary market distribution objective is to assist in
support.  The primary market distribution objective is to assist in 
revenue generation by providing strategically desired customer 
service levels at the lowest total cost.

Heuristics
• Using “rules of thumb” to direct the analytical process 
toward the best solution
• Appropriate for both large scale optimization and

• Advantages include speed and understanding compared 
to optimization techniques
• Limitation is that “optimal” solution may not be found
• Example
– Locate distribution centers only where demand exceeds a given

• Customer Service:
– Demand for improved service, quality a major element

• Logistics costs:
– Physical distribution, up to 30% of sales value
• External pressures
– Regulatory change pressures, competitive pressures of
