Logistics & Supply Chain Management

ScreenServices recognise that customers in all industries demand responsiveness and reliability from suppliers as they look for reduced lead times, just in time delivery and value added services which enables them to do a better job of serving their own customers.

It is also generally accepted that the advantages of Global economies of scale can be offset by the cost of logistics as this represents a significant proportion of total cost.

In line with our focus of being the lowest cost producer in our field we have also set out to differentiate ourselves from our competitors by fundamentally re-engineering our logistics processes to be market leaders not only in cost reduction but in service enhancement too.

To help achieve this, we have developed a unique Business Management System primarily used to manage customer requirements in relation to costing, forecasting, manufacture, stock holding and distribution. This service-driven system supports EDI and SAP providing instant access and visibility to generated data and delivers excellent reporting and contract review together with reduced cost, increased processing speed, reduced errors and improved relationships with business partners. It also gives customers the confidence to consider vendor reduction and single sourcing.

Common documents exchanged between companies via EDI are purchase orders, invoices and advance shipping notices along with bill of lading, customs documents, inventory documents, shipping status and payment documents.
