  (86.4 mt) > India (72.2 mt)
• Globally, revenue forecasted to reach $1,715 billion by 2017 with a
  CAGR of 5.1%(LUCINTEL Report)
• Some Major Players worldwide: Arcelormittal, ThyssenKrupp, Nippon
  Steel, and POSCO
• The emerging markets of China and India are expected to witness
  growth due to boom in sectors like construction, automotive and
  consumer durables.
Need of the hour - The
         use of Analytics
•   Data Management           - Development &
    execution of architectures, policies, practices
    & procedures that manage the collection
    quality,   standardization     integration    &
    aggregation of data across the enterprise
•   Business Intelligence - Business Intelligence or
    BI is the ability of an organisation to use its
    data and bring valuable information out of it
    and make it available to the right people at
    the right time at the right place via right
    channel and that too quickly
•   Advanced Analytics - Use of modern data
    mining, pattern matching, data visualization
    and predictive modelling to produce analyses
    and algorithms that help businesses make
    more meaningful and proactive decisions
•   Performance Management - Advanced
    methodologies,       comprehensive       metrics
    processes & analytical applications used to
    monitor and manage the business
    performance of the enterprise
Benefits & Trends in Analytics
Easy Management of high data volumes                           Changing nature of data along 3
                                                                        dimensions
• Globally data continues to grow exponentially
                                                           • Volume – Separating useful          data &
Better Compliance to Regulations                           output value information
                                                           • Sources – Ever growing range of new
• From carbon emission to compliance with                  sources of information like social media,
  Corruption Practices, Mitigating risks, etc              blogs, etc for trends, brand, reputation, etc.
                                                           • Types – with the rise of Web 2.0, newer
Profitable Growth                                          data types have evolved - Voice, Text &
                                                           Video Analytics
• Where to focus NPD, identify challenges, customer
  retention, lower costs

New Signals

• Real time operation insights & decision making
  using signals from voice, email, social networks, etc.

Hidden Insight

• Manage growing complexities of global businesses
Implications for the Steel Industry

• Advanced        analytics    -     Margin
improvement of 2-4%
• Parametric pricing - Better negotiation on
price & avoidance of overpayment to
vendors based on marginal changes in
products
• Commodities volatility - Better hedging
against future losses due to price
fluctuations in raw materials
• M&A integration - Smooth integration of
big companies to bring them to a common
platform and have a single business entity
by having similar product coding


 • As the complexity in the steel sector is high and due to the central role played by the
   supply chain in cost structure and profits, analytics is the field to look forward to
 • The supply chain may appear to be simpler in Steel Industry but the maximum margins are
   trapped inside different layers
Cost Benefit Analysis – Scorecard
                     Method
• Compares wildly different approaches in a common framework
• Explains why one approach is measurably superior to another
• Quantify trade-offs when no approach dominates all metrics
• Tries to evaluate any visibility initiative in terms of expected visibility outputs Vs its cost &
  timeline inputs
• To keep the scorecard realistic and concrete, it should be tied to specific business decisions

                                  Categories of visibility effectiveness:
•   Sensitivity: Measures the effectiveness of a supply chain visibility process in capturing data
•   Accessibility: Evaluates the integrity of the visibility with data model
•   Intelligence: Checks the effectiveness of the routines used to process data and render it into
    relevant information
•   Decision-Relevance: Measures how well the visibility solution integrates into business
    decisions.
•   Thinking in terms of “Fit”: Functionality or features of a visibility system or process are only
    valuable to the degree that they fit into the targeted business decision.
•   Other Considerations: The probable risks are not included in the visibility scorecard
Cost Benefit Analysis…
• Different Analytic tools and Data Warehouse Applications cost differently

• Typical cost for Data Warehouse Applications are of the tune of ~ $110000 (IBM Smart
  Analytics) including 3 year maintenance cost

• Dashboard applications are offered by established IT & Consultancy firms. The costing for the
  same are in the range of few $10000

• Benefits as derived from a real life implementation in the Steel Industry:

• In the 1st phase, the company achieved

    – 50 percent reduction in lead times for standard hot coil production (from 30 days to 14
       days)

    – 60 percent reduction in inventory (from 1 million tons to 400,000 tons)

    – Reduce the scrap ratio on hot coil from 15 percent to 1.5 percent, leading to additional
       savings

• Resulting in a total ROI of over $15.5 million in less than two years
Cost Benefit Analysis…
Implementation Roadmap
Step 1: Identify High Impact Control Areas
  Areas to manage costs, which is one of the most critical elements of profitability:
  a. Customer Experience                              c. Working capital efficiencies
  b. Cost control and operational efficiencies        d. Compliance and regulatory needs

Step 2: Develop Strategic Supply Chain Analytics
  Planning Replenishment
  Managing Quality
  Managing Materials

Step 3: Solidify the Approach
  Developing a scalable architecture that can accommodate the change in underlying information
  system
  Approaches to implementation of Analytics:
  a. Comprehensive / Big Bang                   b. Incremental
  These are based on factors like Business needs, Enterprise readiness, Environment, etc.
Step 4: Build a Business Case for the Implementation

   Quantifying the expected benefits and carefully analyzing the costs will help build a business
   case as well as set objective metrics for post implementation

Step 5: Conceptualize the Solution

   • Choosing the right consulting and implementation partner
   • Determining the technology architecture and high-level
     business requirements
   • Selecting the optimal tools and technologies
   • Adopting the correct solution approach

Step 6: Implement the Solution
   •   2 sub phases: development and deployment

Step 7: Operationalize the Solution
   •   Enhancing or upgrading solution occasionally to meet changing business requirements
   •   Following reporting routines & staying abreast with the changes in the environment
Case Studies & Real Time Feasibility Analysis

Applications of advanced analytics for the steel sector:
• Product costs and margins: An established global steel producer’s legacy systems was not providing
   sufficient granularity into cost and profitability by product, order, mill, or customer. The system was
   slow to respond to changing market conditions. The company then implemented advanced analytic
   capabilities on top of a contemporary ERP backbone. The combination gave management faster and
   more accurate insights and helped to improve decision-making on pricing, demand management,
   production scheduling, and operational investments.
• Customer insights and risk management: The most recent financial crisis and recession hit the
   automotive sector especially hard. This created huge risks for the steel industry. With the help of
   analytics risk scorecard for automotive supplier industry were made. This scorecard combined
   traditional financial metrics with non traditional indicators were used in making the dashboards.
   These dashboards allowed automakers and suppliers to make informed decisions at both a tactical,
   daily order level and, for the longer term, looking at their mix of customers and product offerings.
• Capital investment decisions: The steel and process industries have long had tools available to
   simulate production processes. In the past, however, the tools were cumbersome, required highly
   trained experts to use them, and took weeks to provide answers. The new generation of tools
   combines visualization and dynamic simulation with traditional numerical results, and does so in a
   vastly more user-accessible fashion.
Supply Chain Visibility Dashboard
How Dashboard Works
    Select a Business Segment to view the
    different KPIs for that particular business
    segment.
    The selected business segment becomes
    green to indicate selection.
    Other values those are somehow related to
    the selected business segment will become
    white showing the relation.
    Values with no relation to the selected
    business segment will become grey.




    Similarly you can select a product and
    view the data related to that product.

    If the data is not available/applicable for
    the selected product, the dashboard will
    show a message “No data available”.
