“It’s not the companies that are competing. It’s the supply chains that are competing.”<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\nWael Safwat, SCMAO<\/strong><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

This is so true!!!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We can see that competition is not between one company to another company. Instead, it is more appropriate to say the supply chain of one company competes with another company’s supply chain. Today, the supply chain has become the backbone of the business: an ever-shifting ecosystem that ensures the easy, well-organized, and consistent delivery of products\/services from a supplier to a client\/customer. But it has become more complex over time as companies are increasingly collaborating with international partners and are under pressure to supply things as quickly as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Businesses are constantly reminded that they need to be more agile and resilient to survive. But what does this mean when it comes to Supply Chain Management and how to check the effectiveness of the chain? Commercial growth will suffer if the supply chain lacks structure, vision, and efficiency or is fragmented. Therefore, companies are looking for opportunities to make Supply Chain processes faster, cheaper, and more accessible in that long journey from a raw materials supplier to the end-user. This is where the important supply chain analytics come in\u2014which can turn the overwhelming amount of data into digestible dashboards, reports, and visualizations that influence vital decisions and prime to better results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Supply chain Analytics<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Supply chain analytics analyses the information companies draw from several applications tied to their supply chain, including supply chain execution systems for procurement, inventory management, order management, warehouse management and fulfillment, and transportation management (including shipping). A supply chain is like dominoes: each step in the network affects the one that follows it. Ultimately, any issues at any stage could impact the ability to meet customer expectations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The success of a company’s supply chain management can be assessed and measured in different ways. The measurement criteria a company chooses are often specific to the type of business it is engaged in, so it will include the most crucial aspects of effectiveness for the business. However, the key performance indicators (KPIs) established by the company illustrate the gap existing between planning and execution in the supply chain and are indicators used to monitor one or more of the following indicators: cost, value, service and waste, and the chain from the manufacturer to the customer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Be SMART: How to define Smart KPIs that drive better results<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A well-known saying is ‘what gets measured, gets done.’<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Supply chain KPIs help to make business decisions related to expansion and business development or improve the company’s order fulfillment, demand forecasting, inventory management, reducing excess and obsolete inventory, transportation, or warehouse management easier. Specifically, they will reveal any shortcomings, allowing us to use our strengths to improve supply chain operations. So, ensure that the KPIs are SMART: Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time which determines the main goals of supply chain metrics to increase productivity and improve customer satisfaction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are different KPI metrics used to measure various stages of the Supply Chain. For a better understanding, we can categorize it into the following stages where each stage is interconnected and interdependent:<\/p>\n\n\n

Order management KPIs<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The following KPIs are used to check the effectiveness of Order Management from Manufactures to the client\/Customer:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Perfect Order<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Perfect order or Perfect Customer order Rate KPI measures the number of orders shipped without problems (on-time delivery, incomplete delivery, damage, delay, or inaccuracy). Perfect Order KPIs help in determining customer satisfaction. These components also show the additional costs incurred by issuing a refund and offering the return to the customer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The main components of the Perfect Order KPI are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    On-time delivery<\/strong>. It determines the percentage of sales deliveries made on time to the customer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    In-full delivery<\/strong>: It tracks the percentage of sales deliveries made correctly, i. e. the right customer received the right package.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Damage-free delivery<\/strong>. It calculates the number of sales ordered that arrived in perfect condition (without any damage) to the customer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Accurate documentation<\/strong>. It measures the percentage of sales deliveries delivered to customers with valid documentation. These documents mainly include commercial invoices, labels, packing lists, and advanced shipment notifications (ASNs).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Fill Rate<\/strong>. This KPI is used to keep track of the Order and line fill rates. Fill rate provides information on customer satisfaction as well as delivery service effectiveness. It’s calculated as a percentage of packages or SKUs dispatched successfully on the first attempt, such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Order fill<\/strong>: It helps in measuring the percentage of orders that are successfully completed on the first shipment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Line fill<\/strong>: It helps in measuring the percentage of order lines successfully delivered on the first shipment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Unit fill: <\/strong>It measures the percentage of items that are successfully delivered on the first shipment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • Customer order cycle<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      This KPI depicts the time between when a customer places a purchase order and when the order is delivered to the customer successfully. If the cash-to-cash cycle time increases, but the customer order cycle isn’t, it indicates issues with the former.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      • Days Sales Outstanding (DSO)<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        This supply chain KPI reveals how fast you collect payments from the customers. A low Days Sales Outstanding number translates to monetary leanness and better productivity of the business operations and vice versa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          \n
        • Cash to cash cycle time<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

          It displays how long it takes you to pay for raw materials and receive payment for what you sell. This supply chain KPI’s low value suggests increased leanness and profitability, and vice versa. It also defines how competent and efficient your supply chain assets, such as shelves, workstations, and trucks, are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            \n
          • Forecast error<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

            The forecast error KPI measures uncertainty and drives all responses to uncertainty, such as safety inventory, excess capacity, etc. It depicts the difference between actual demand and forecasted demand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              \n
            • Capacity Utilization<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

              This KPI shows how much of a company’s resource is being used. This resource could be the manufacture of commodities or professional services. This metric is used essentially for maintenance management and resource tracking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                \n
              • Freight Bill Accuracy<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

                Billing accuracy is critical to profitability and customer satisfaction; therefore, tracking this particular metric will help in spotting the detrimental trends, improve the overall shipping & freighting accuracy, and ultimately, helps your business grow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                  \n
                • Freight cost per unit<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

                  Freight cost per unit, one of the essential supply chain KPIs for any scaling company, provides you with a solid insight into how economically you can ship your products. Any too long or poorly structured process will lose you time, money, and client loyalty. This KPI will assist you in avoiding such issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    \n
                  • Delivered on time and in full (OTIF)<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

                    As one of the most insightful supply chain efficiencies KPI, OTIF ensures that the orders are fulfilled fully and on scheduled time. Based on whether the right product was delivered to the agreed quality standards, fulfilled in the right quantities, and returned to the agreed destination. This KPI helps in optimizing the performance consistently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                      \n
                    • Delivery Time<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

                      This KPI focuses on improving service: It calculates the time it takes from when an order is dispatched to when it arrives at the customer’s door. This KPI creates more precision in informing clients when the goods or products will be delivered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                        \n
                      • Use of packing material<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

                        This scannable supply chain KPI helps track the number of packing materials, and also inefficient packing processes cause unnecessary waste for every line of pick & pack process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                          \n
                        • Productivity<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

                          This KPI assesses the efficiency of a company’s machines, departments, and employees. Businesses can ensure they can deliver the products or services they offer by measuring and understanding productivity KPI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                            \n
                          • Return Reason<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

                            The supply chain for return reasons KPI provides valuable insight into why customers or clients return their orders. It provides critical information for the long-term profitability of an eCommerce firm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                            Inventory management KPIs<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

                            To check the effectiveness of Inventory management the following KPIs are used:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                              \n
                            • Customer Backorder Rate<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

                              Backorders are orders that cannot be filled when a customer places them. This metric directly contributes to customer satisfaction. A high backorder rate means your customers will have to wait as you try to satisfy their orders, which will have a long-term negative impact on customer happiness and retention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                \n
                              • Inventory To Sales Ratio<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

                                The Inventory to sales ratio KPI measures the Inventory in stock versus the number of fulfilled sales, as Inventory is often a company’s most significant expense. These businesses can keep their inventory expenses low relative to their overall sales and save money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                  \n
                                • Accuracy of Forecast Demand<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

                                  Accuracy of forecast demand or demand forecast accuracy measures the percentage that indicates how well the actual on-hand quantity matches the forecast. It also examines what a business predicted, ordered, and sold in the previous period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                    \n
                                  • Rate of Return<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

                                    The return on investment (ROI) or Rate of Return (ROR) is a percentage that illustrates the profit on investment over the period. This percentage is usually expressed as a percentage of the original investment over a year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                      \n
                                    • Product Sales<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

                                      Product sales, also known as sales revenue KPI, measures income generated from customer purchases minus any returns or canceled sales. This metric is generally reported for a standard time period, such as a month or year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                        \n
                                      • Revenue per Unit<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

                                        Revenue per unit measures how much one unit of product is worth. This metric is mainly helpful for subscription-based businesses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                          \n
                                        • Cost per Unit<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

                                          The cost per unit (CPU) is a measurement of how much it costs a company to produce or buy a single product unit. It works best in businesses that produce or sell big quantities of the same product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                            \n
                                          • Gross Margin by Product<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

                                            Gross margin by product measures the amount of money a company keeps per dollar of sales. This metric removes any costs from producing the item.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                              \n
                                            • Gross Margin Return on Investment<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

                                              Gross margin return on investment (GMROI) displays how much a company\/business made compared to investing in stock purchases. This number determines how well a company purchases and sells its goods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                \n
                                              • Put Away Time<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

                                                Put away time measures the time it takes for a company to stow\/store inventory. Chronologically, the actions that determine put away time follow those that choose time to receive. Lead time is reduced when this metric improves inefficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                  \n
                                                • Time to Receive<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

                                                  Time to receive measures the rate at which staff bring in and prepare to sell new stock. This KPI measures the efficiency of a company’s stock receiving process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                    \n
                                                  • Supplier Quality Index<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

                                                    The supplier quality index (SQI) measures a vendor’s performance in crucial areas such as material quality, corrective actions, rapid response, delivery quality, quality processes, and commercial posture. This is the broadest metric that businesses can use to evaluate their vendors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                      \n
                                                    • Inventory Shrinkage<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

                                                      Inventory shrinkage refers to the amount of Inventory a company should have on hand but cannot account for. The company displays the list of those products for sale, but either doesn’t have or cannot sell them. Shrinkage usually results from theft, damage, miscounts, or fraud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                        \n
                                                      • Inventory Carrying Cost<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

                                                        Inventory carrying cost, also known as holding costs or the cost of carrying Inventory, measures the percentage of the total value a company pays to maintain Inventory in storage. The costs include insurance, rent, labor, warehouse, and unsellable products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                          \n
                                                        • Customer Satisfaction Score<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

                                                          A customer satisfaction score (CSAT) measures the level of customer happiness with the product and the company. Customers respond to a short survey by rating the product and company on a scale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                            \n
                                                          • Service Level<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

                                                            The service level metric addresses the percentage of customers who do not experience stockouts. This metric balances excess inventory and stockout costs resulting from too much and not enough inventory to fulfill orders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                              \n
                                                            • Lead Time<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

                                                              It measures the time from the moment the customer places an order to the moment it is ready for delivery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                \n

                                                                Deadstock is Inventory no one wants to buy. When the company cannot sell the remaining Inventory, the stock is “dead.” The percentage of stock that is dead stock is an important metric because it indicates the company’s viability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                  \n

                                                                  Available inventory accuracy relates to the company’s stock status. This KPI displays the difference between the number of items the company claims in electronic records and what is on the shelf for sale. The physical inventory count confirms the electronic file totals. The difference can be theft, breakage, fraud, and loss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                    \n

                                                                    Internal warehouse management system efficiency measures the return on investment (ROI) for a company’s internal inventory management system. ROI includes profit and loss resulting from purchasing the software and any required hardware, unrecognized gains like saved data entry time, and new opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                      \n

                                                                                            In the years to come, supply chain analytics will pull from an even larger pool of data as companies continue to digitize their operations in factories, warehouses, trucks, and more. And to turn that ever-growing set of data into digestible insights, technology providers will leverage various technologies. It’s the only way for companies to benefit from the tremendous volume of information coming from their supply chains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                            “It’s not the companies that are competing. It’s the supply chains that are competing.” Wael Safwat, SCMAO This is so true!!! We can see that competition is not between one company to another company. Instead, it is more appropriate to say the supply chain of one company competes with another company’s supply chain. Today, the supply chain has become the backbone of the business: an ever-shifting ecosystem that ensures the easy, well-organized, and consistent delivery of products\/services from a supplier to a client\/customer. But it has become more complex over time as companies are increasingly collaborating with international partners and are under pressure to supply things as quickly as possible. Businesses are constantly reminded that they need to be more agile and resilient to survive. But what does this mean when it comes to Supply Chain Management and how to check the effectiveness of the chain? Commercial growth will suffer if the supply chain lacks structure, vision, and efficiency or is fragmented. Therefore, companies are looking for opportunities to make Supply Chain processes faster, cheaper, and more accessible in that long journey from a raw materials supplier to the end-user. This is where the important supply chain analytics come in\u2014which can turn the overwhelming amount of data into digestible dashboards, reports, and visualizations that influence vital decisions and prime to better results. Supply chain Analytics Supply chain analytics analyses the information companies draw from several applications tied to their supply chain, including supply chain execution systems for procurement, inventory management, order management, warehouse management and fulfillment, and transportation management (including shipping). A supply chain is like dominoes: each step in the network affects the one that follows it. Ultimately, any issues at any stage could impact the ability to meet customer expectations. The success of a company’s supply chain management can be assessed and measured in different ways. The measurement criteria a company chooses are often specific to the type of business it is engaged in, so it will include the most crucial aspects of effectiveness for the business. However, the key performance indicators (KPIs) established by the company illustrate the gap existing between planning and execution in the supply chain and are indicators used to monitor one or more of the following indicators: cost, value, service and waste, and the chain from the manufacturer to the customer. Be SMART: How to define Smart KPIs that drive better results A well-known saying is ‘what gets measured, gets done.’ Supply chain KPIs help to make business decisions related to expansion and business development or improve the company’s order fulfillment, demand forecasting, inventory management, reducing excess and obsolete inventory, transportation, or warehouse management easier. Specifically, they will reveal any shortcomings, allowing us to use our strengths to improve supply chain operations. So, ensure that the KPIs are SMART: Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time which determines the main goals of supply chain metrics to increase productivity and improve customer satisfaction. There are different KPI metrics used to measure various stages of the Supply Chain. For a better understanding, we can categorize it into the following stages where each stage is interconnected and interdependent: Order management KPIs The following KPIs are used to check the effectiveness of Order Management from Manufactures to the client\/Customer: Perfect order or Perfect Customer order Rate KPI measures the number of orders shipped without problems (on-time delivery, incomplete delivery, damage, delay, or inaccuracy). Perfect Order KPIs help in determining customer satisfaction. These components also show the additional costs incurred by issuing a refund and offering the return to the customer. The main components of the Perfect Order KPI are: On-time delivery. It determines the percentage of sales deliveries made on time to the customer. In-full delivery: It tracks the percentage of sales deliveries made correctly, i. e. the right customer received the right package. Damage-free delivery. It calculates the number of sales ordered that arrived in perfect condition (without any damage) to the customer. Accurate documentation. It measures the percentage of sales deliveries delivered to customers with valid documentation. These documents mainly include commercial invoices, labels, packing lists, and advanced shipment notifications (ASNs). Fill Rate. This KPI is used to keep track of the Order and line fill rates. Fill rate provides information on customer satisfaction as well as delivery service effectiveness. It’s calculated as a percentage of packages or SKUs dispatched successfully on the first attempt, such as: Order fill: It helps in measuring the percentage of orders that are successfully completed on the first shipment. Line fill: It helps in measuring the percentage of order lines successfully delivered on the first shipment. Unit fill: It measures the percentage of items that are successfully delivered on the first shipment. This KPI depicts the time between when a customer places a purchase order and when the order is delivered to the customer successfully. If the cash-to-cash cycle time increases, but the customer order cycle isn’t, it indicates issues with the former. This supply chain KPI reveals how fast you collect payments from the customers. A low Days Sales Outstanding number translates to monetary leanness and better productivity of the business operations and vice versa. It displays how long it takes you to pay for raw materials and receive payment for what you sell. This supply chain KPI’s low value suggests increased leanness and profitability, and vice versa. It also defines how competent and efficient your supply chain assets, such as shelves, workstations, and trucks, are. The forecast error KPI measures uncertainty and drives all responses to uncertainty, such as safety inventory, excess capacity, etc. It depicts the difference between actual demand and forecasted demand. This KPI shows how much of a company’s resource is being used. This resource could be the manufacture of commodities or professional services. This metric is used essentially for maintenance management and resource tracking. Billing accuracy is critical to profitability and customer satisfaction; therefore, tracking this particular metric will help in spotting the detrimental trends, improve the overall shipping & freighting accuracy,
