Supply Chain & Planning

Sales and operations planning

Sales and operations planning

A common problem faced by businesses in FMCG is a lack of an effective sales and operations planning process in order to balance the seemingly erratic nature of supply and demand inherent at all levels in the sector. Our approach is to support the installation of this essential process within your business, integrating all aspects of effective planning to drive successful decision making.

Warehouse optimisation

Warehouse optimisation

Reducing the cost per unit of output is common in most of the operations area of the business, but is one that isn’t generally managed when it comes to warehousing. Coriolis are able to identify non-value adding processes and support the installation of improvements which have enabled business to achieve significant cost reductions and developed processes with greater accuracy.

Vendor management

Vendor management

How do you measure your suppliers? Most business will base supplier performance on purchase price alone, but in our experience this in not a true indicator of performance. Food is unique, with inputs changing on a daily, weekly, even seasonal basis, a different type of measure is needed and we can supply a new way of thinking of measuring your suppliers.

Inventory policy

Inventory policy

In the food sector having the right inventory policy is a important part of the supply chain process, getting it wrong on one hand can lead to significant write-offs and on the other loosing custom by not having the stock to deliver. Having specialists in food is crucial, as we have the right understanding and can equip businesses with right talent and tools to be in control and maintaining optimum stocks, not only reducing costs and improving customer service but minimising the space required
