KOM’s Actionable Business Intelligence for Turbulent Times
MONTREAL, Quebec, Canada, December 30, 2008 – KOM International Inc., a global leader in supply chain consulting, reminds operators that its Actionable Business Intelligence (ABI) services are a source of clarity in these turbulent times when supply chain flexibility is critical.
KOM helps companies cut costs and be more effective by responding to the “need to know” questions operators have weekly or even daily. Questions like: What are my lost sales due to out of stocks by SKU and customer?; Which of our transportation premiums are due to incorrect routing assignment by corridor and facility?; What is customer profitability, isolating value added/special requests?; What is our store level shortages and lost sales vs. order frequency cost impact?; What is our facility capacity utilization versus key SKU storage and handling cost?
With so much information in the system, it’s a challenge for operators to get accurate answers to decision critical questions in a consistent, timely manner. KOM’s Actionable Business Intelligence (ABI) benchmarks current metrics and simulates “what if” scenarios through analysis and projections of the company’s historical transaction data.
KOM’s approach quickly identifies existing supply chain impediments to the results sought from any particular decision scenario. This may include decisions to rationalize SKUs; enhance customer service; reduce transfers and shipments; make regional vs. central stocking distribution decisions; what to charge for value added by customer profile; and more. KOM works with raw input data files and on most assignments data in by Sunday results in reports transmitted back by late Monday. Once established, this analysis and reporting process can be transferred over to the company’s internal resources.
