Design

Flexibility in supplier sourcing, changes in the supplier base, new products with shorter life cycles, new markets and relocated manufacturing facilities can lead to inefficiencies in existing logistics networks.

This complexity requires professional state-of-the-art optimization, rather than best-guess approaches.

Kuehne + Nagel’s experts benchmark your current supply chain processes against industry standards to identify improvement opportunities.

Using advanced analysis and modelling tools, including the Supply Chain Operations Reference model (SCOR), alternate models are evaluated against identified cost and service objectives.

Based on the recommended solution, Kuehne + Nagel will detail associated process flows and infrastructure.

The benefits of expert supply chain design include optimized service levels, reduced inventory and overall logistics cost.
