SZ制药公司的库存管理与配送方案选择
SZ制药公司成立于1996年,是由法国排名第2的全球性制药公司与某省一家具有70年历史的著名药厂合资,在中方药厂的一个分厂基础上成立的合资制药公司,总投资为2亿人民币,外方占55%的股份。公司主要从事生产和销售化学药品以及药物中间体、药物辅料的活动,还包括有关的技术咨询。其主要产品有心血管药品、神经系统药品、抗血栓药品、抗肿瘤药品和抗生素等处方药和少量非处方药。SZ制药公司的发展非常迅速,它设定的目标是跻身于中国医药企业10强的行列,所以公司在运作上非常注重产品质量,公司的工厂在生产过程中几乎照搬了外方在欧洲的质量和安全管理模式,以保证产品质量和人员环境的安全。
最近,负责物流部的李经理经常听仓库经理跟她抱怨说仓库太小了,各种原材料总是放不下,希望能扩建仓库。李经理决定去仓库看看,当她来到仓库时,眼前的景象使她有些惊讶,仓库的门口两边堆满了纸箱,有几个纸箱已经破了,纸箱中包装药瓶的小盒撒了一地,人走来走去不少纸盒已被踩坏。仓库两边堆的也是纸箱,仓库里三台叉车在仓库管理员的指挥下,正在调换货物以腾出库位。再看其他的几种材料与辅料,也都堆满了货架,有的已经占据了成品的货位。回到办公司,李经理让秘书从ERP的系统中把最近三个月每天的原材料库存数据调出来,从中选择公司最常用的两种主原料和两种辅料以及两种主要的包装材料,这六种材料占到了公司原辅料库存数量的85%以上。但李经理从系统中看到库存水平与供应商供货周期相差悬殊,因为这个供货已经包括运输时间,可采购部给李经理的回复却是这个供货周期只是一个平均水平,供货商供货相当不稳定。最后,李经理拿出了一个方案来改变这种状况,是有关供应商管理,包括制定供应商绩效考核办法、考核办法的实施计划,发展与供应商关系的计划,当然,还要评估实施供应商管理库存(VMI)的可行性,以及实施JIT供应的可行性。
公司遇到的另一个问题是运输成本问题,李经理和储运部经理讨论后得出结论:造成运输成本偏高的原因主要有两个,一是药品空运成本高。药品的航空运输量小,但费用高,同时每次还要占用1名货运员开车送药。再加上机场距离公司很远,花的时间多,并且空运也仅比EMS快0.4小时。二是铁路货物途中损坏严重。货物在运输途中被挤扁、摔破的事时有发生。此外,还有货物丢失情况。李经理感到有必要对整个配送业务重新调整,不能公司负责全部的送货业务,因为投入的资金太大。如果能利用好第三方物流,让其提供公司所需的各种服务,不但能降低运输成本,客户签收单据回收的问题也可以一并解决。这时,又有一个难题摆在李经理面前了,要怎么样选择承运商呢是选择一家还是几家呢李经理再次陷入了沉思。
