The genius is in the details
What’s the best way to get inbound parts and even finished vehicles from Point A
to Point B? It’s not a simple undertaking. Especially when you consider the vast
number of variables and contingencies to plan against.
VASCOR loops in a whole staff of engineers who work with our logistics analysts
and other team members on engineering customized supply chains. Working directly
with customers, they design, develop and implement an optimized solution for each
customer.
Using cutting-edge technology and decades of expertise, our professionals systematically
evaluate processes and information flows in exquisite detail – starting with order
management and continuing through final delivery to the destinations. Steps for
supply chain engineering – whether it involves inbound parts or finished vehicles
— usually include:
Value Chain Assessment: We gain a thorough understanding of the
current situation – how parts and finished vehicles are moving through their respective
supply chains – using our proven diagnostic methodology. Our assessment tools include:
- Benchmarking
- Identifying and quantifying opportunities
- Planning for implementation
Logistics Strategy Planning: We develop a fully integrated supply
chain solution that addresses the customer’s unique challenges and goals. The plan
usually includes
- Modeling and design for the proposed parts distribution or transportation network.
This process even looks at variables like each part’s dimensions and weight as well
as other minute but critical variables.
- Technology specification and selection based on the customer’s requirements
Functional Design Services: We create a functional design that
facilitates the customer’s continuous quality improvement processes. This design
typically includes:
- Detailed process design and documentation
- Development of performance metrics
- Technology specification and selection
Process Management Services: Finally, we work closely with the
customer to implement the solution in a coordinated way. This process usually includes
such components as
- Business modeling
- Process mapping
- Benchmarking
- Change management assistance
