1. Material management concepts emerged to formally organize the flow of materials to production in response to customer demands for new products.
2. In the future, smaller firms will continue conventional purchasing while larger firms will centralize purchasing of raw materials.
3. More sophisticated computer systems will enable leaner logistics organizations through paperless purchasing and supplier evaluation.
2. Material management concept emerged as
a formal organization
due to the greater need for a separate
system in the flow of materials to the
production floor.
need of customers for new & better products
resulted in the management awareness to
formally give attention to the need to
systematically develop the flow of materials
3. The future outlook in the supply chain management
is that majority of the purchases in peso value will
continue to use the conventional way of buying and
delivering the needed inputs for their daily needs.
On the other hand, bigger and more organized firms
with greater supply chain will tend to be centralized.
They would aim for the supply of raw materials and
other production inputs.
4. The advent of more sophisticated
computerized system available in the
coming paperless system of purchasing
and canvassing of materials
will result in lean logistics
management organization.
5. DEVELOPMENT FIRMS will focus
on CENTRALIZED PURCHASING.
FIRMS will negotiate for more long
term supply agreement
in order to (a) stabilize the price
and (b) continue supply of more
standardized parts and products.
7. Organization will implement
supply strategies that will give
most possible value for its
products or services for its
supplies and to its customers.
Material management process
exists in the organization with the
view of exploring the new
business opportunities.
15. Materials requirement is the first
stage in the procurement of any
materials for processing into
finished products or for sale to the
direct consumer.
It must be implemented in order to
deliver its goods on time and of
the right quality.
16. Material planning is the
determination of the course of
action in the procurement and
delivery of the materials at the
plant site.
It involves the process of
forecasting the general and
specific framework with the utmost
efficiency and economy.
17. Materials Requirement Planning
(MRP) involves the development of
systems and procedure.
In its modern sense, computerized
programs are developed to help
expedite the procurement and
delivery of materials.
19. 1.) Maintain adequate
supply of materials
Adequate supply of materials in the production
line or for sale must be available at all times.
20. 2.) Maintenance of high quality
standards
The items in the supply chain must meet the
quality standard required for the processing or for
sale.
21. 3.) Economy fund management
Wise investment in materials supply is the reality
that operational funds are limited. Careful value
analysis of the supply and demand is weighed
against the operation’s cash position.
22. 4.) Maintain corporate competitive
position
Choose the supplier that will provide the best
combination of price and service
23. 5.) Get the lowest possible price
The lowest possible price must be obtained.
Nevertheless, it must be within the specification
requirements in terms of quality
25. 1.) Logistics organization must clearly
define its objectives and goals
.
2.) It must be able to identify first its
SWOT
26. 3.) Review the present supply
requirements and relate it with
present environment in the local and
international market forces in the
supply chain
27. 4.) It must provide a systematic
budgetary requirement for all its
specific activities
5.) Sets measures and control
mechanism to achieve its goals and
objectives
28. How To Have An Effective Logistics
Management System?
The bigger the organization, the more materials
requirement is involved. It also differs in the
type of industry and extent of its operation either
locally or internationally.
The method of logistics planning depends
also on the top management and the people
who handle the operational requirement.
29. How To Have An Effective Logistics
Management System?
Forecasting is a systematic approach to probe the
future demand material of the industry.
1. Experience
2. Good judgement based on data analysis
3. Technical expertise
A good manager to be
able to make a sensible
forecast must possess
the ff:
30. Forecast Accuracy
Decreases as Time
Horizon Increases
Short term forecast tends to be more
accurate. Long period forecasting tends to
have uncertainties as there occur changes
in the business environment.
31. Forecast Accuracy Decreases
as Time Horizon Increases
The steps that managers must understand and avoid.
1. Forecasts are never perfect
2. Forecast for groups of items tends to be more
accurate than forecast for individual items
3. Some forecasting techniques assume the same
underlying demand for a certain period
the responsibility for making material forecast in the
business organization lies with the production and
distribution departments.
32. Forecast Accuracy Decreases
as Time Horizon Increases
A. Determine the purpose of forecast
They need information to determine the objectives and
purpose of the forecast it needs and the budgetary
requirement
B. Establish time frame on the needed
materials
The demand analysis must be revised from
time to time and be updated based on needs
of the producing unit.
C. Select the most appropriate forecasting
technique
Varies according to the needs and demand of the
organization, based on what technique is most
appropriate and based on the experiences.
33. Forecast Accuracy Decreases
as Time Horizon Increases
D. Gather the data and analyze according to the
technique chosen
It requires relevant data and information to be able to make a
valid and reliable forecast.
E. Forecast preparation
Chart must be prepared based in the time
frame of delivery
F. Forecast monitoring
Forecast has to be monitored as to its functional validity
35. Requirements for Properly Prepared
Forecast
1. Forecast should be timely
2. Forecast should be accurately stated
It must state the accuracy of possible errors so that
those involved will be able to make adjustments on
positive or negative variances
3. Material requirement
forecast must be reliable
There is no single
technique that
works best in
every supply
chain.
Elements of a Good Forecast
36. 4.) Material forecasting must be
stated in meaningful units.
It must be stated in quantifiable units or peso
value.
5.) Forecast must be submitted in
hard copies.
38. FORECASTING AND DEMAND ANALYSIS
The customer demand is the most
important component in forecasting.
Forecasting for materials is greatly
dependent on the development of new
technology.
39. TWO APPROACHES IN FORECASTING
Qualitative method1.)
Quantitative method2.)
40. The qualitative method consists
mainly of subjective information given by
those in direct contact with the end user of
the product.
TWO APPROACHES IN FORECASTING
Qualitative method1.)
41. It uses historical data as to material
improvements and the development of new
component that goes into a new product.
TWO APPROACHES IN FORECASTING
Quantitative method2.)
42. ORGANIZING SUPPLY CHAIN
Bigger organizations designed their
structure in the most appropriate operational
system that would be more efficient and
economical in the delivery of needed materials.
Sound logistics management design
develops people operating effectively in the
delivery of goods in the production line.
43. ORGANIZING SUPPLY CHAIN
The selection process for people in the supply
chain management must focus on
honesty
that will build strong confidence and focus
attention to the organization's economic
objective.
45. 1.) Management must establish clear
objectives for all concerned.
2.) Identification and classification of the
activities with clear and definite
assignment of functions.
46. 3.) Group related activities in the light of
human and material resources.
4.) Proper delegation of authority and
accountability to line executives.
47. 5.) Define the vertical and horizontal
relationship to improve condition.
6.) Develop effective control system.
48. Two major factors to be considered in the
organizing process
1.) The organizational place of the purchasing
functions.
 In the smaller organizations, some purchasing
functions are under the finance or
administrative department.
 In bigger manufacturing organizations, this
function is under the production department.
49. Two major factors to be considered in the
organizing process
2.) The level of authority and responsibility.
 Authority carries with it a heavy responsibility
for result and wise expenditure of the
organization's financial resources.
