Step 1 - Existing Network Data Gathering

• We conduct an initial review of your supply chain network to understand your business goals and objectives.
• We work with you to prepare a network data download of qualified products for analysis.
• We prepare data for analysis in relevant categories: by vendor, product, distributor, demand and order history, temperature, freight method, weight category, etc.

Step 2 – Supply Chain Cost Comparison Analysis

• We conduct a Cost Comparison Analysis of qualified SKUs to determine better stocking and delivery strategies to drive costs out of the system.
• We provide optimal performance recommendations to improve profitability in areas of greatest importance to you: purchasing, freight, inventory and/or distribution.
• We submit a Supply Chain Optimization Plan upon completion of the analysis. Solutions typically result in increased efficiency and supply-chain cost savings on LTL movement ranging from 10% to 40% compared to your existing LTL network strategy.
• Our analysis can encompass as much of your supply chain as you wish, from regional-based to company-wide.

Step 3 – New Strategy Implementation

• We work with you to maximize cost savings by seamlessly transitioning changes in product movement to or from central distribution centers, regional distribution centers, forward-warehouses and redistribution locations.
• We spearhead specific inventory, redistribution and freight logistics solutions and work closely with you to manage all new strategy recommendations to reduce costs, transparently.
• Upon final execution of a redistribution contract, CDC can begin delivering qualified redistribution products to distribution centers within 30 to 60 days.
