Distribution Precision System in the Last One Mile of Steel Distribution
Abstract
A serious management problem for steel distribution will be caused when downstream customers change their production modes from order forecast to pull production. To achieve the precision delivery to clients, DPS (Distribution Precision System) is designed by adopting modern logistics and lean manufacturing concepts in this paper. The application of DPS in WuHan BaoSteel Central China Trading shows that intelligent control, precise distribution and business process automation can be achieved under the condition of lean manufacturing. Furthermore, information barriers in the whole supply chain are eliminated to implement process share and improve the efficiency.
