Existing situation “Make to Stock” business model
More demanding market 3 brands and 350 products Low flexibility on spot orders Huge Stock level – high cost Production based on predictions and history Strong competition
4
New situation “Make to Order” business model
More than 50 direct customers 9 brands, over products High flexibility on spot orders Low cost of stock Production based on direct customer’s orders Strong competition – lower production costs

Warehouse management
22
AX limitations in the WMS
Main problems: The put away principle in AX didn’t work according to Tigar Tyres needs FEFO in AX works on batch level FEFO for tire industry works on monthly basis Pallet movements and picking Logical stock separation Quality assurance principles 22
23
Main needs in the warehouse
Able to pick any pallet from a given location Or pick a pallet with the same item from another location that satisfies certain conditions. Good put away principles … 23
24
Nice additional features
Multi pallet type locations. In TT two pallet types are in use and sometimes depending on availability some items are stored on either of those two pallet types For that reason locations with different capacity based on the pallet type were created Multi warehouse picking lists 24
25
Main obstacles Physical Constraints Locations and pallet types
Quality assurance stock Space Logical Constraints Allocation process and priority Logical stock TX integration 25
26
Adapting AX to the business
Two main developments Logical stock movement Start Picking development 26
27
Adapting AX to the business
Logical stock movement New put away rules Right pallet type FEFO period check Oldest location Location code check 27
28
Adapting AX to the business
Start Picking Development AX proposes pallet ids by FEFO principle on the batch level Physically those pallets are not available in most of the cases The development proposes a location The worker picks freely and scans the pallet id when he picks a pallet When he is done and moves on to the next location the system is updated and changes the reservations 28
29
Adapting AX to the business
Start Picking Development Helps the workers do their job with less errors Faster And easier Controls that the worker is always picking the right item and in the right qty 29
30
Stock levels Here I think we should put a nice presentation of the stock levels movement, either as absolute values or as percentages in terms of factory production capacity We can choose a representative month of the year or we can choose to show the average stock per year, or the total stock… 30
