Slide:1Catalina Capital Advisors/Lean Quest LLC,Proprietary,Parker Hannifin Concepts of Lean Distribution,April 14-15,2004,Slide:2Catalina Capital Advisors/Lean Quest LLC,Proprietary,Evolution of Lean From Factory to Supply Chain,Slide:3Catalina Capital Advisors/Lean Quest LLC,Proprietary,The Evolution from Lean Manufacturing to Lean Distribution,Toyota and others have effectively leveraged their success in Lean Manufacturing to improve the profitability and effectiveness of their supply chainHigh costs of distribution make Lean Distribution particularly attractiveandExtending Lean thinking from manufacturing to the customers provides benefits for all members of the supply chain(manufacturing customers).,Slide:4Catalina Capital Advisors/Lean Quest LLC,Proprietary,The Challenges of Lean Distribution,Difficult for people to see flow and pull in warehousesThe processes of a warehouse seem too dynamicOld thinking:Warehouses hold inventoryNew thinking:Warehouses flow inventorySupply chains are made up of multiple silos that do not have common objectives.Hinders systems thinkingLeading system process improvements across organizational boundaries is difficult,Slide:5Catalina Capital Advisors/Lean Quest LLC,Proprietary,Transition Lean Manufacturing Thinking to Lean Distribution,Think of your supply chain as a“Conceptual Plant”that produces customer orders,“The Conceptual Plant”,Slide:6Catalina Capital Advisors/Lean Quest LLC,Proprietary,The Same Lean Principles Apply to Both Lean Manufacturing and Lean Distribution,Same Lean principles and concepts apply,but the emphasis,methods and applications shiftGo back to the base purpose of the principles to determine the application in distribution,Slide:7Catalina Capital Advisors/Lean Quest LLC,Proprietary,Goals/Benefits of a Lean Distribution Network,Slide:8Catalina Capital Advisors/Lean Quest LLC,Proprietary,Benefits of Lean Distribution,Increased Profitability and RONA Reduced costs(25%to 40%expected)Reduced capital costs for storage and equipment Reduced inventory levels Improved productivityReduced transportation costsImprove efficiency of manufacturing and purchasingIncreased salesIncreased customer satisfaction and loyaltyIncreased order fill ratesReduced lead timesImproved qualityIncreased consistency of activities,Slide:9Catalina Capital

policies and practices with Lean to eliminate the distortion of demand signals.Key points for demand classification:True demand signals occur as the customer consumes the productFalse demand signals occur when demand is shifted or lumped due to sales policies or practices Not just Parkers Sales Policies;Distributors Polices-to-Customers and Suppliers Policies-to-Parker effect the flow of demand information and materialsPotential Benefits:Tamed bullwhip reduces demand fluctuation 40%-60%.Increased sales from Lean efficiencies and improved service,Slide:21Catalina Capital Advisors/Lean Quest LLC,Proprietary,Component:Physical Distribution Sales Policies and Practices,TypicalDistorted parts order profiles make Inventory Control more difficult,LeanSales policies provide true demand signals for Inventory Control,Slide:22Catalina Capital Advisors/Lean Quest LLC,Proprietary,Sales Push ProgramsFree transportation on large shipmentsMinimum order size,Component:Physical Distribution Sales Policies and Practices,TypicalShifted demand causes capacity and planning problems for operations and transportation,LeanSales policies provide true demand;allows capacity to be optimized for operations and transportation,Capacity,Under Utilized Resources,Over Capacity,ME,Slide:23Catalina Capital Advisors/Lean Quest LLC,Proprietary,Component:Physical Distribution Sales Policies and
