This is an example of a business reform that achieved a 25% reduction in labor by transferring the inventory replenishment operations for customer-designated warehouses (VMI) from the sales department to the logistics department.
We would like to introduce a case study on the implementation of the "Φ-Pilot Series" at Fuji Oil Co., Ltd. The inventory replenishment for customer-designated warehouses (VMI) was reliant on individual sales representatives using Excel and other tools, resulting in inconsistent formats and procedures, leading to a business style dependent on individuals. This made it difficult to increase the number of customer-designated warehouses handled. In a previous logistics department project, we had established a system for optimal inventory placement among major warehouses through the introduction of Φ-Pilot. This time, we aimed to understand the actual demand for customer-designated warehouses and optimize VMI warehouse inventory replenishment using Φ-Pilot. As a result, sales representatives were able to focus on their core sales activities. Additionally, inventory placement at major warehouses became more accurate, bringing us closer to building a more advanced supply chain and a sustainable logistics system.
