Any issues are caught at a top of production point and are corrected at the factory. - Never out strategy - I have coordinated across our product development, marketing, and sales teams to develop a list of products which are classified as never out products. From this list we are able to achieve flexible supply chain that will adjust to demand on the fly; the net result is a Pull Production system that is able to react.- Cash-Cash cycle reduction- Fill rates - with the implementation of drop shipments, we have been able to have the cash available to bring in other products earlier. This has reduced stock out risks and increased our fill rates to a point that is unheard of.- Freight cost per unit - by decreasing the number of air shipments, consolidating ocean shipments, and negotiating costs with our forwarders, we have been able to decrease the total freight cost per unit by 14%
