Introduction
Case has introduces an international company
who produces horticultural care tags and merchandising solution, it gives best solution
foot the plastic care labels and solutions. Ludwig Schmidt is the owner and he
establishes in 1949 as master products company. For now company is making a lie
of plastic horticultural labels for some of the seed companies but for now comp
may is suffering from some of the hurdles in the supply chain of the company.
The first problem for the company is there is mismatch in between demand and
supply of the producers and consumers of the company so for now scarcity and
excessive production of the goods occurred sometimes. In order to solute this problem
company has come up with the new idea and to match the demand and supply to
make the beater and right condition of the demand and supply company here now
has thought of the new approach which is scheduling set for a new supply chain
management system by making affair and
large batch which can be shipped
directly to the growers instead of the seed companies so later, when grower results
become available to everyone then another batch can be produces by using the
information from the growers by finding out how many additional tags are
needed. So that the second batch can be made growled and shipped to the growers.

Analyis of
findings
Core issues
The
revised approach will give the company a new look of looking at the problems
and aso it will hep to solve them easily.the supply management of the seeds
will lead the company to better outlok=ok the feature. Revised approach of tags
when the growers are now able to make and order the different batch of tag as
once when the plants will grow they will also have surplus in plants it is
obvious that the process now has made them easier to use and minimize the
inconvenience in the process of tag acquirement. It can also avoid duplicaiton
of the supply but where there comes positive there even lies some negative
oints so, the process in my view has its own pros and cons.
PROS
·
Guarantee
of the right numbers to the tags of the plants.
·
There
will be no delay on replying to the inquiry of the customers
·
Correct
match of demand and supply is possible
·
It
will increase the effectivenss and reduce the cost of warehousing
·
The
seed companies will now ot have surplus of the product
·
The
seeds with the tag will hepl everyone to work faster and even in the convinient
way.
CONS
·
They
are focing to disconnect the chain of the seed companies which can demotivate
them
·
The
situation of prediction of the seed could not be the same and the co ordination
could not be same for Grower company.
·
The
added process can increase the time for the manufacturing proces of the
company.
·
As far
their planning concerns the supply and the customers can not be directly
connected , growers may not trust them.
Conclusion
Well,
supply chain helps to manager the flow
of the goods and the products, it also helps to the movement of the raw
material , work in process inventory and
finished products from one point to another point of consumption. So what can
we say is that to match the demand and supply conditons and to make the
frequent convenient and effeient supply hain of the company the new or the
latest approach of supplky chain management has added a flavour to the compnay
and the second batch can be shaped using the informantion from growers on how
many additonal tags are needed. Products can be made and shippes to the growers
as per the demand and it will help the company to solve the ongoing problem of
the supply chain.
