Wastes and tools in the lean marketing strategy . This paper has been present...Andrea Payaro
The lean management is doing more with less by employing “lean thinking.” It involves never ending efforts to eliminate or reduce wastes in design, manufacturing, distribution, and customer service processes. One of the key steps in Lean is the identification of which steps add value and which do not. By classifying all the process activities into these two categories it is then possible to start actions for improving the former and eliminating the latter.
This paper aims to :
• Adapt to marketing the wastes identified in the lean;
• Propose some tools that can contribute to the reduction or the elimination of wastes present in the marketing strategies.
• Measure the results of the application of these tools in the marketing strategies in a sample of 10 SME.
Companies must be able to reduce the costs of marketing strategies to be more competitive in an increasingly dynamic market . Therefore it is a key factor to know the areas in which the activities are not value-added . The effectiveness of the tools presented has already been demonstrated in previous studies.
The seven wastes in marketing context are:
1) Overproduction : documents, information, materials or functions of a product in excess. In fact, some goods have functionalities that are not required by the market. These functionalities have been a cost for the company but they are not value for the customer.
2) Inventory : Storage of goods in excess of the demand or lower than market expectations. The stock is the effect of incorrect distribution networks or unexpected variability of the market .
3) Waiting: Also known as queuing, waiting refers to the periods of inactivity in a downstream process that occur because an upstream activity does not deliver on time. The customer does not like to wait , so the company must deliver value quickly. Delays in delivery or delays in responding to customer demand cause loss of market.
4) Transportation: It includes any movement of goods that does not add any value to the product, such as moving materials between workstations or different areas in a point of sell. Improper design of the logistics network increases costs , environmental impact and the waiting time for the customer.
5) Over-Process: It is unintentionally doing more processing work than the customer requires in terms of product quality or features. If a process is not organized or managed properly than it is a waste. For example the incorrect management of the customer relationship cause the loss of market and customer dissatisfaction .
6) Motions : It includes any customer unnecessary physical motions or even unnecessary or difficult physical movements. It involves poor ergonomics or poor usability of product.
7) Defects : In addition to physical defects which directly add to the costs of goods sold, this may include incorrect delivery, or incorrect specifications.
Effective Supplier Management: Because Knowing Is Better than WonderingSAP Ariba
When it comes to good supplier management, it’s an opportunity you wouldn’t want to miss and a risk you cannot afford to take. Meticulous supplier information gathering, measuring performance, and assessing risks is a two-way collaborative process between buyers and suppliers. Without the right tools and processes, efforts to manage your supplier portfolio could take a lot of time with little results. This session presents the groundwork for laying a successful supplier management strategy and the best practices in maintaining buyer and supplier adaption.
Of Words, Handshakes, and Signatures: The Case for Good Contract ManagementSAP Ariba
As a sourcing and procurement professional, you know it best. Good contract lifecycle management sets the tone for your relationship with your external stakeholders, be it suppliers or your customers. Yet lack of alignment between internal teams and counterparties results in exposure to vulnerabilities, savings leakages, and deterioration in relationships. This session explores the business case for investing in contracting management and the must-haves you need to build a world-class practice.

Retail media wordt gezien als het nieuwe advertising-medium en ook mediabureaus richten massaal retail media-afdelingen op. Merken die niet in de betreffende winkel liggen staan ook nog niet in de rij om op de retail media netwerken te adverteren. Marvin belicht de uitdagingen die er zijn om echt aansluiting te vinden op die markt van non-endemic advertising.

20 buyers | >560 team members | >12,000 suppliers
Over €209 million negotiated in >1,321 negotiation events
Lessons learned and best practices
Good idea! – cut off of previous sourcing suite from day zero
Despite being on-demand, considerable amount of customization required to meet the needs (still in progress)
Too large initial upload of pre-homologated suppliers
Time, time, and more time to prepare the awarding and approval structure for team members working with SAP
and SAP Ariba solutions
Time, time, and more time to map the materials to design catalogs

trade associations, institutes, societies and specialist publications. The financial
statements of the companies observed are also analysed. Brand performance and
company performance can thus be determined.

services (type, quantity, supplier, requirements
from FI…)
Necessary information and functionalities for
supplier management
Dealing with contracts
4. GAP analysis
20. www.kaeser.com / Page 20
Approach of the IT Project

system
2. First bundling of suppliers
3. Procurement strategy:
Special catalogs for specific products and services
Catalogs with a wide range of products with an
average required quantity

Lessons Learned
1. The test phase should be used intensively. Test teams should consist of company
stakeholders, who understand system boundaries and limitations.
2. The project team should be installed depending on the strategy of the entire
project. It is important that each team member shows commitment to the success
of the project.
3. Implementation of catalogs takes time.
4. Make use of the expertise and know-how of SAP Ariba solution consultants. At the
end, the customer pays for it.
5. One should ask oneself at each stage of the project: “Is my business output future
minded? Do my ideas and the status of the project represent the best practice?"
