DLT Supply Chain Metrics Analyzer contains actual and projected shipments, production, and
inventory information. It uses this information to compute the necessary performance
statistics that describe the supply chain’s efficiency and indicate what is driving those
statistics. For example, it may identify a poor order fill rate for an SKU and, by analyzing
DC and customer detail, assist in understanding whether a customer with large orders is being
under-forecast, safety stock is insufficient, or production was lower than planned.
The following are some of the metrics typically of interest to Supply Chain managers:
- Order Fill Rates
- Inventory Weeks of Supply
- Forecast Accuracy
- Production Schedule Attainment
- Redeployment Volume and Costs
- Stock Freight % by Transport Mode
- Cost Variance vs Optimal Production & Transportation
- SKU Variants Performance
Prevent Common Problems and Improve Your Performance
DLT Supply Chain Metrics Analyzer helps identify where systematic supply chain problems may
exist. Users can define performance exceptions and undertake a search that will produce a
list meeting that criteria for further analysis. An example of an exception may be any SKU
that falls below 2.5 weeks of supply (or above 8 Weeks of Supply) at any point in the next
12 weeks. It uses current inventory, forecast, and planned production to project inventory
and evaluate weeks of supply. When an exception is identified, for example an item with less
than 2.5 weeks of supply, the user may discover that production or planned deployment is
insufficient or simply that the forecast has risen significantly. Exceptions may also be
defined around any of the metrics listed above or any other metrics added to the analysis.
In addition, it can track these metrics by planner providing management with an objective
evaluation of each planner’s strengths and weaknesses.
