This is an example of a business reform that achieved inventory placement optimization by changing the inventory replenishment operations for logistics hubs (warehouses) from a "warehouse responsibility system" to a "product category responsibility system."
We would like to introduce a case study of the implementation of the "Φ-Pilot Series" at Fuji Oil Co., Ltd. Previously, each warehouse had personnel performing inventory replenishment tasks, which meant that as the number of warehouses increased, so did the labor costs. The more warehouses there were, the more difficult it became to control the inventory balance between them. By using a method to distribute the optimal amount of inventory from higher-level warehouses to lower-level warehouses instead of replenishing each warehouse individually, we were able to achieve both labor reduction and optimal inventory balance among lower-level warehouses simultaneously, resulting in approximately 40% labor savings. Additionally, the introduction of the Φ-Pilot facilitated standardization, allowing for flexibility in tasks such as substitutes during vacations and job rotations, ultimately achieving 100% telework and work style reform.
