This document discusses supply chain planning and outlines a talk given by Dinesh Garg. It defines supply chain planning as coordinating business activities along the supply chain to meet demand at the right quantity, location, and time at minimum cost. It describes the supply chain planning process and decisions at operational, tactical and strategic levels. The document also discusses how Digital Equipment Corporation developed a global supply chain model that integrated manufacturing and logistics planning, reducing annual costs by $367 million and increasing production five-fold.
When planning on producing a new product and/or service, the key factor is the product and service design. Successful designs come down to these basic principles: translate customers' wants and needs, refine existing products and services, develop new products and services, formulate quality goals, formulate cost targets, construct and test prototypes, document specifications, and translate products and service specification into process specifications. The process of design has certain steps that include motivation, ideas for improvement, organizational capabilities, and forecasting. In the product process innovations, research and development play a significant role. Because of the influence a product and service design can have on an organization, the design process is encouraged to be tied in with the organization's strategy and take into account some key considerations.
Companies choose various ways to design their products and the type of services they provide. Which include: standardization, mass customization, delayed differentiation, modular design, and robust design deciding which method to use is very important along with deciding the company's target market. Deciding the right method, establishes good productivity and efficient way of operations.
Understand what value can be gained by using simulation-based predictive analytics for supply chain, distribution center, logistics and warehouse design, operations, and improvement
Understand the value of simulation based predictive analytics for distribution center, supply chain, logistics, or warehouse design, operations and performance improvement
Use of software (WMS and TMS) to transform a dysfunctional supply chain and revolutionize it.

Putting the SPARK into Virtual Training.pptxCynthia Clay
This 60-minute webinar, sponsored by Adobe, was delivered for the Training Mag Network. It explored the five elements of SPARK: Storytelling, Purpose, Action, Relationships, and Kudos. Knowing how to tell a well-structured story is key to building long-term memory. Stating a clear purpose that doesn't take away from the discovery learning process is critical. Ensuring that people move from theory to practical application is imperative. Creating strong social learning is the key to commitment and engagement. Validating and affirming participants' comments is the way to create a positive learning environment.

In the Adani-Hindenburg case, what is SEBI investigating.pptxAdani case
Adani SEBI investigation revealed that the latter had sought information from five foreign jurisdictions concerning the holdings of the firm’s foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) in relation to the alleged violations of the MPS Regulations. Nevertheless, the economic interest of the twelve FPIs based in tax haven jurisdictions still needs to be determined. The Adani Group firms classed these FPIs as public shareholders. According to Hindenburg, FPIs were used to get around regulatory standards.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

3. What is Supply Chain Planning ?
Supply Chain is a set of activities (e.g. purchasing,
manufacturing, logistics, distribution, marketing) that
perform the function of delivering value to end customer
Traditionally, all the business units along a supply chain
have their own objectives and these are often conflicting
There is no single plan to carry out supply chain activities
4. What is Supply Chain Planning ?
There is need for a mechanism through which the
execution of various business activities along a supply
chain can be planned in an integrated fashion.
The supply chain planning is an effort to achieve the
primary goal of “producing and distributing the
merchandise at the right quantity, to the right
locations, and at the right time with minimum system
wide cost” in the presence of conflicting goals of various
business units

1987:
DEC successfully supported a full range of products for over 20
years with 33 plants in 13 countries including 30 distribution and
repair centers
1989-1990:
A mismatch among capacity, infrastructure, and demands of new
markets
1988 - 1993:
Digital reengineered the business processes throughout
manufacturing and logistics.
Corporate Logistics and Manufacturing initiated the development of
GSCM for simultaneously balancing the conflicting attributes of
manufacturing and logistics
16. GSCM at Digital Equipment Corp.

Customer demand is met for each product, in each period, in
each customer region
Limits on number of facilities making each product
Limit on number of facilities using each manufacturing style
Fixed charges for products made by each facility
Fixed charges for facilities making any product
Fixed charges for manufacturing style used by each facility
Limited production capacity, inventory storage, and shipping
volume
Constraints for GSCM
20. GSCM at Digital Equipment Corp.
Solution Approach
Users are invited to advise and assist the solver by specifying
with each constraint just how much it would cost to violate the
constraint
Elastic penalties help solver decide which constraints are hard
and which are soft
The solver uses branch and bound enumeration
The problem of realistic size and detail, the GSCM features
constitute a formidable class of large, difficult optimization
problem
21. GSCM at Digital Equipment Corp.
A reduction of $167 million in annual manufacturing cost
A reduction of $200 million in annual logistics cost
Number of plants was to be reduced from 33 to 12
Five times more computers were manufactured
