Innovative Concept Helps the Environment
“Simply excellent” were the words the European Logistics Association’s judges used to describe the project. “Redesigning a spare parts supply chain is not an easy task, but combining this with the acquisition of other brands to be included in the logistics network in Europe is a true challenge. This supply chain is particularly complex, due to the high number of unique items to be managed, the heterogeneity of those items, and the extremely short lead times that dealers require. The industrywide cooperation makes the Network Integrator a state-of-the-art example. This excellent concept produces excellent results in cost reduction, increased customer service and advantages for the planet through deep collaboration. On top of that it delivers several exemplary models for the future,” the case study judges wrote.
Spare parts logistics has become more challenging for the automotive industry in Europe due to the increasing number of spare parts as a result of increased vehicle complexity. Ford collaborated with Ĵý Logistics and co-developed the Network Integrator concept into a best-in-class model in industry collaboration.
“Our goal is to continue expanding the concept and encourage other companies of the automotive industry to join the Network, and further leverage economies of scale – to the benefit of each partner participating in the Network and to the environment," Damerow continued. "Last but not least, the customer benefits as well, as we can provide the highest service level through a stable network."
