Marketing, Sales and ServiceParts Supply & LogisticsNew Model & Special ProgramsI developed an Alteryx tool and database after self-teaching this new software, to track production rack fleets associated with sheet metal service parts. It links service parts to both final assembly and WIP racks and serve as a living data repository for critical rack information. The database is being used to perform analyses of forecasted sales and generate reports that would tell which rack fleets are at risk of not being able to contain future peak demand needs before the constraint occurs. Using Alteryx, a new visual mapping query tool, my program reduces Ford expenditures associated with backorder logistics expedites, reduced production rack constraints and purchase costs of new racks allocated for service related to demand fluctuations in addition to balance-out/all-time-buy options, and decreases operations time-cost of backorder and rack constraint efforts. Measureable Completed Objectives & GoalsCompleted Alteryx database that tracks and analyzes sheet metal rack fleet capacity/constraintsDocumented process for obtaining updated rack fleet information that needs to be included in the databaseOutput reports that notify the appropriate personnel to take action to procure additional racks, when neededImplemented new sustainable tool for annual and peak monthly demand forecasting Future parts supply fill loss avoidance due to rack constraint prevention, avoidance of expediting costs to and through department and backordered dealers.Increased constraint management efficiency and reduced process timeImproved customer satisfaction through backorder prevention and operations work reduction
