IDENTIFICATION OF KEY AREAS FOR CUSTOMER LEVEL IMPROVEMENT IN A COMPLEX SUPPLY CHAIN
Industries in 1980s
During 1980s quality improvement became important with improved sales and profit performance.
Current Situation
Now a days industries have been showing great commitment to customers. Manufacturing skills are no longer key asset, customer service level has been recognized as strategic value. Keep customer happy.
What is OTIF?
"Getting the right stuff to the right place at the right time, in the right location on the jobsite, in the right condition with the right invoiceall day, every day."
OTIF measures the whole company and the performance at each step. This isn't simply an operations report card; OTIF is a roll-up measure. To perform well on OTIF, everything that goes into it has to be correct.
The take-off and order entries have to be correct; Purchasing has to maintain appropriate inventory levels; Material has to be handled correctly, pulled correctly,
ON TIME:
On-time is defined as delivering the order to the customer when you promised. The measurement is the commitment the organization made, not necessarily the time the customer requested
IN FULL:
In-full measures order accuracy. It counts as in-full when everything ordered is delivered with no errors, backorders, or substitutions.
Why OTIF?
The greatest value in measuring OTIF is that it allows you to see at a glance how the company is doing. Companies that measure and manage OTIF are unanimous in the value of doing so. That value includes Reduced time lost to mistakes Time spent trying to locate materials Elimination of missing directions for drivers Increased accuracy, and so much more.
Calculation of OTIF:
Requirements for the OTIF measurement are: Have a delivery date (even hour for some organizations) on the customer order. Measure the date or the hour of delivery and archive it in the system Maintain record of the reasons why an order was not OTIF.
Generally OTIF is calculated by taking into account the number of deliveries: OTIF ( % ) = number of deliveries OTIF total number of deliveries * 100
But he can also, according to organizations, be calculated according to the number of orders or the number of the order lines.

Reasons of failure:
Wrong TDD. Revised TDD updating in ERP not being done. Over booking than plant capacity. Dispatch against wrong COPS. Sales budget should be in line with the booking if needed should be revised and informed to PPC.
Root Causes:
URGENCY and URGENCY Last moment addition of order disturbs the whole cycle. Moreover addition of smaller diameter order as urgency results in much delay of other order. More time to roll small diameter bars. Setup time: time lost in changing of rollers
Other reasons:
Internal Overbooking: customers are committed for the orders which can never be made. No proper communication between marketing department and PPC department. Revised dates are not entered into ERP.
Hidden cause:
Steel Stacking: A problem in inventory management in the steel industry
A key logistics problem between the continuous casting stage and the hot rolling mill in the steel industry.

Commonly, the problem of such storage areas is that the next billet needed for the next production step is often not the one on the top of the respective stack. Therefore, a resorting has to be performed in order to access the desired billet.
Solutions:
Before committing any special small order, marketing department should inform PPC and ask if it is feasible. Proper calculation for time loss to be made if we are making any special order. This time must include setup time lost due to changing of rollers. Some time customer keep on extending the date of delivery and this led to rise of inventory level on warehouses. So keep reminding customer to take off their order and pay the remaining amount.
Work to do.
Material requirement planning. To calculate how much raw material to order and at what point of time it should be ordered. Study of MPS. Study of BOM for different grades. Lot sizing policy for all parts. Safety stock requirement.
