KOM International, Reflections on 45 Years of Supply Chain Management With a long track record in logistics and supply chain consulting, Allan Kohl speaks not only of the highlights of KOM International over the past 4 decades but also of the historical milestones for a discipline that has changed a lot since 1963. A Blueprint for Success: A Case Study from Strategy to Implementation & Results The focus of this presentation is on the story of how Couche-Tard moved from its reliance on Wholesale distributors and DSD Vendors through the rigors of a strategic study that led to the warehouse design and implementation of its own distribution center. Also featured are highlights of some of the results gained. The Impact of Voice One Year Later One year after implementation Price Chopper continues to reap the benefits of the application of the Vocollect system in their Dry Grocery, Perishable and Frozen Warehouses. Ron discusses the impact and results of the project in terms of KPIs. Market Trends & Productivity Results Each year KOM International undertakes a Benchmark Survey for its clients. Knowing where you stand is an important indicator of success. Understanding that within the context of market trends and industry developments creates an even richer perspective. Richard presents productivity results from the annual client survey along with the latest market trends and industry developments as identified by FDI. How to Develop a Supply Chain Strategy In his presentation Rick will provide an overview of the ins and outs, the principles both tried and new, and some of the pitfalls we face when tackling the rigors of developing an effective Supply Chain Strategy. Cutting out DSD – Padlock the Store Back Door to Increase Profits! Why do North American Grocery retailers allow so much of their product mix to be delivered DSD? Is this the most effective way to do business? What strategies are the leaders implementing to increase profits? This presentation provides a hard look at the business case for padlocking the store back door and cutting out the middleman. Learn why the self-distribution of product lines such as Specialty Foods is the next frontier for squeezing more pennies to the bottom line. Extending Inventory Visibility, Security and Control with Wireless/RF-ID Technology The rapid development and convergence of utilizing wireless handheld devices in conjunction with RF-ID technology will enable companies to extend real-time vision of inventory within and beyond the four walls of the distribution center. This session will discuss both the benefits and pitfalls of implementing wireless/RF-ID technologies throughout your supply chain. Reducing Real Estate Occupancy Cost by Leveraging your Corporate Covenant and Increasing your Real Estate Knowledge and Negotiating Skills A case study of the consolidation on Nestle Canada distribution facilities to a state of the Art temperature controlled facility totaling 535,000 sq. ft. in Brampton Ontario. Gord will touch on all aspects of the negotiating process that were instrumental in reducing the cost of both the Net rent and Additional rent for Nestle Canada. A Tale of Two Warehouses The focus on this presentation is on how Kohl and Frisch successfully integrated a 25,000 sq. ft.
