Consolidating Operations: Network Consolidation Sweeps Up Supply Chain Inefficiencies for Leading Environmental Cleaning Solutions Company
Overview As corporations grow, processes and systems require constant evaluation to ensure they effectively support ever-changing demands. Over time, the manufacturer's network of distribution centers increased to address product demand, provide timely delivery to customers and service a nationwide network of service technicians. Their ultimate goal was to reduce costs and improve customer service levels. Exel first conducted a distribution center network design and optimization audit focusing on labor, warehousing, transportation management and IT integration. Based on the results of this review, Exel recommended locating a single, centralized distribution center in Louisville, Ky. The location offered the additional benefit of being in close proximity to a main parcel hub, which would improve order cut-off time and the overall order-to-customer delivery cycle.
