To implement supplier inventory management, we must first have a good information communication platform, and we need to re-integrate the original EDI resources on the basis of the EDI owned by the original enterprises to build an information communication system suitable for supplier inventory management.

2. Workflow design of supplier inventory management.

After implementing VMI, the buyer enterprises and suppliers must implement the workflow of VMI to ensure the implementation of the whole strategy.

The implementation of the whole supplier inventory management is transparent, and the buyer enterprises and suppliers can monitor it at any time. Mainly divided into two parts:

Inventory management part: actually, it is made up of sales forecast, inventory management and supplier production system * * *, because after the implementation of supplier inventory management, the work of these parts is mainly made up of suppliers and buyer enterprises * * *, so it is handled as a module: firstly, the sales data of products are obtained from buyer enterprises, and then combined with the inventory level at that time, it is transmitted to suppliers in time. Then the supplier's inventory management system makes a decision: if the supplier's existing warehousing system can meet the product quantity required by the inventory management system to make a decision, the products will be directly delivered to the buyer's enterprise by the warehousing, transportation and distribution system in time; If the supplier's existing storage system can't meet the decision of the inventory management system, it is necessary to inform the production system to produce products, and then deliver the products to the buyer's enterprise in time through the transportation and distribution system. Among them, before the formal order is generated, it must also be inspected by the buyer's enterprise, and then the final order is obtained after adjustment.

Warehousing, transportation and distribution system: on the one hand, it is responsible for product storage: product sorting and storage, product preservation; On the other hand, it is responsible for the transportation and distribution of products: the products are delivered to the buyer's enterprise in time as required, and at the same time, it is responsible for arranging the transportation and distribution plan as economically as possible, such as selecting batch transportation and less-than-truckload transportation, arranging transportation routes and time, and arranging transportation capacity.

3. Organizational structure adjustment of supplier inventory management

After the buyer and supplier implement supplier inventory management, in order to adapt to the new management mode, it is necessary to adjust the organization according to the workflow of supplier management library.

Because supplier inventory management is a kind of "negation" of the original enterprise's business strategy, there will definitely be cooperation and adjustment between the two enterprises in their work and functions, so in order to ensure the normal operation of supplier inventory management, it is necessary to set up a supplier inventory management coordination and evaluation department, whose main functions are:

(1) After the implementation of supplier inventory management, the personnel of the original enterprises may have conflicts of interest due to their work cooperation, so the supplier inventory management coordination &; The evaluation department can formulate a series of working standards to coordinate and solve these problems, and build a bridge for the communication between enterprises of both sides.

(2) Because after the implementation of supplier inventory management, the original jobs will be merged and adjusted appropriately. If the jobs of the original buyer's enterprise inventory and warehouse staff are rearranged, they may think that the existing supplier inventory management is a threat to their jobs, so the supplier inventory management is coordinated &; The evaluation department should do their work well and make appropriate arrangements and adjustments to their work.

(3) Monitoring and evaluating the implementation of supplier inventory management, so as to provide reasonable and scientific management information for senior managers of enterprises, is an important basis for senior managers of enterprises to adjust enterprises.

Different members of the supply chain have different conflict objectives. When the system is uncoordinated, each member of the supply chain optimizes and acts on his own, and the result is only partial optimization, which leads to repeated inventory establishment and cannot realize the overall optimization of the supply chain. In order to achieve global optimization, supply chain members should realize what is optimal for the whole system, and in order to coordinate the behavior of supply chain members, they must obtain information, and the most effective way to obtain information is to establish a strategic alliance with shared interests and risks. This win-win partnership provides a breakthrough in traditional management methods for inventory management in supply chain. There are three supply chain inventory management methods.
