Toffee Inc.: Demand Planning for Chocolate Bars
內容大綱
The inventory manager of sales and distribution for Toffee Inc., a confectionery company, had just concluded a meeting with all relevant personnel. The meeting had not been entirely positive. The words of the production manager still echoed in his ears: "If the ingredient inventory is not re-examined and reworked to the firm's advantage then [soon] the final products based on these ingredients will cease to yield the kind of profits that the firm expects." The inventory manager needed to prepare a comprehensive forecasting and inventory management plan with a view to minimize the cost of managing the supply chain by judicious use of resources, better forecasting, and improvement in the ingredient inventory purchasing and management systems.
