Leadership Accomplishment Challenge: The vice president of logistics for Hilti US approached me and indicated that our drywall screw line occupied too much floor space in the National Distribution Center. He challenged me with significant reductions of product in Tulsa and improved service level to our customers. This task had not been accomplished before at Hilti.

Safely reducing inventory without jeopardizing service could only be accomplished by: Safely reducing inventory without jeopardizing service could only be accomplished by: Reducing Lead Time from Taiwan Reducing Lead Time from Taiwan Reducing transportation time to distributing warehouses Reducing transportation time to distributing warehouses Shifting inventory to increase stock at Hilti Distribution points while reducing stock held in the National DC Shifting inventory to increase stock at Hilti Distribution points while reducing stock held in the National DC Increasing sales (temporary reduction) Increasing sales (temporary reduction)

Product arrived in the port at Long Beach California. The containers were loaded on to trucks, which were delivered to Tulsa, Oklahoma. Product was stocked in Tulsa until the distribution network needed it. Distribution Center stock was replenished from this central location. Product arrived in the port at Long Beach California.

Additional research uncovered the vendor distributed products throughout the US as well. I negotiated an agreement where our product would be shipped rail “piggyback” along with our vendors goods—saving considerable freight costs.

The vendor retained ownership of the product at his location until a distribution point required additional product and I released a purchase order. This reduced our lead time from 90(+) days to within a week, allowing us to significantly reduce our safety stocks. This reduction took place at not only the National Distribution Center, but also, the satellite distribution warehouses as well.
