Design of Systems & Procedures
We can
perform, or help you to undertake, operational reviews of your supply chain. We
will analyse your processes and design effective systems and procedures for
managing all aspects of the supply chain:
» Demand management
» Service criteria
» Manufacturing policies
» Purchasing
» Inbound logistics
» Scheduling
» Work-in-progress
» Warehousing and stock control
» Outbound logistics
» Customer service
» E.commerce
» NPD, EPD, product launch, gate process
We will identify
the important value and cost drivers, determine the performance measures and
process controls needed to improve and maintain an efficient supply chain.
We can define your operational requirements for information systems, whether
it's the processing and recording of transactions, or the sharing of knowledge
and business-critical information. We can write functional specifications for
application software, configure and help you to implement bespoke and package
solutions.
Bespoke software solutions are impractical for many
companies; the burden of maintenance and development is just too much. Many
business units are required to adopt corporate solutions, which have been
selected, sometimes, with scant regard for local requirements. As a
consequence, companies often feel that their business is compromised by having
to adapt to package solutions. And software suppliers are often unsympathetic
to genuine concerns about the difficulties of using their products.
ACUITY specialises in creative use of package solutions to meet real business
needs - whether it's re-implementing an existing package or helping you to find
a new one . We will help you to adjust your practices without compromising the
overall process or its delivery:
» productivity and efficiency
» accuracy
» reduced cycle time
» customer service.
