According to IE management consulting understand, there are some companies in order to reduce their inventory costs and avoid the impact of timely delivery, it will aid their strong position and require suppliers to establish a stock for himself, his profit based on the supplier's risk on. For example, the domestic auto industry have been implementing a "zero inventory" management innovation, but in the actual implementation process, but mere formality, not implemented the so-called "zero inventory" management radically. Years ago, a television station has done such a show, the content is about how a domestic Automobile Group to improve business efficiency through inventory management. The group's original inventory management, but is managed by their original lease to own parts warehouse supporting vendors only. Later, IE management consultancy that, in this episode, the automotive group of people such as inventory management, as the one of the important initiatives emerged from a difficult dilemma in. It is well known companies all costs eventually will be on the customer purchased the product passed on to, otherwise the development of this enterprise will be difficult to sustain. However, we can see that in the steam group of the whole industry chain, there are still a large warehouse, a large warehouse of spare parts is still a lot of accumulation, the only difference is that this time the warehouse personally managed by the group, and look There are some rental income up, seems to be a "double benefit" thing. But in fact nothing but a self-deception. Assuming auto 4S shop regularly inform the customer no accessories to wait after the production of parts for production companies can provide maintenance services, I believe that soon after, making parts of the enterprise will lose the real "need not stock" situation - no customers go to buy a car, do not reproduce naturally the. Finally, IE management consulting summed up, in fact, companies want to achieve lean production, complete "zero inventory" is impossible. Only by establishing a rational, standardized inventory inventory management method is the right under certain conditions.
