Supply Chain Development
| Inventory levels are too high. Mark-downs and obsolete stock should be reduced. A lead-time reduction is required to keep our product range fresh and to improve flexibility in our supply chain. Service- and lead-time improvements should be achieved at unchanged or reduced cost, and our growth aspirations are currently constrained by lack of capacity in our distribution network. |  |
Maersk Logistics offers a 'one-stop shopping' concept for supply chain optimisation – from analysis to solution, design and implementation.
Our approach is flexible and tailored to meet your specific requirements. We combine knowledge and experience from international transport and logistics operations with best-in-class analysis techniques and applications, supported by strong project management and implementation skills.
Our expertise spans the entire supply chain from the strategic to the operational level; i.e. client and market definition, purchasing and supplier relationships, manufacturing, and warehousing and distribution.

- Combining in-depth understanding of your business with supply chain expertise to create leading-edge supply chain solutions for your company
- Identifying changes that when implemented yield substantial business benefits, underpinned by fact-based analyses and modelling
