A few years ago, it appeared that the company might have to file for bankruptcy. Instead, the company recently generated $218 million of free cash flow and reduced its net debt by $223 ian. Du this time its stock share price has risen 580 percent. How did the company increase cash flow in such a short time, and during one of the worst economic recessions in history? Largely through supply chain management improvements in two areas: better manufacturing efficiencies and much improved inventory management practices. Inventory management improvements began when top managers formed a global inventory man- agement team. The team’s goal was to reduce inventory levels across businesses and regions while maintaining on-time delivery performance to customers, Major changes included consol- idating operations into a smaller number of facilities, identifying and focusing on the highest total cost items, working with key suppliers on delivery reliability, and adjusting inventory re- ‘order points. In one year, inventory management actions reduced inventory levels by $152 million—freeing up much needed cash while nearly doubling inventory turns. 13/20 What is inventory? © Stock or store of goods @ Refers to stock of items held by a firm to meet demand © Manufacturing sector example?
