埃森哲的支出趋势报告从Q2(10月份发布)涵盖了一些影响采购和供应链成本的宏观经济区域,同时也潜入了许多特定的特定趋势。研究简介探讨的一个领域是物万博体育下载app流市场,提供了全球性的看法和储蓄和采购改善的机会。
For example, the埃森哲团队使托运人将受益于“不同的采购方法,这些方法依赖于当地/国家一级市场知识,不同的签约规范,不同的燃料计划等来促进收紧供应环境的节省”。“换句话说,即使有区域(例如,“,”欧洲“)的特定模式 - LTL,卡车,轨道等,也没有一种策略。我们必须真正”获得本地“。
另一个趋势埃森哲探索 - 我们在广泛涵盖的花费很重要(见报道hereandhere) — is the shift in pricing models in the area of small parcel. Specifically, FedEx and UPS both announced moves to a new pricing scheme, dimensional pricing, that “calculates shipping cost based on package volume — the amount of space a package occupies in relation to its weight.”
这是一个游戏更换者(不是以积极的方式)为物流市场。由于埃森哲观察到,“新的定价模型将影响当今数量发货的大约70%的包裹,并且当尺寸定价模型应用于较小的包装时,托运人可以看出潜在速度的增加20%他们今天发货。这是在其他标准税率增加和评估费用之前。“
To overcome added costs, Accenture recommends companies work with “their carrier representatives now to understand how the new dimensional pricing models will apply to them and what the potential impact on shipping costs will be. In parallel, shippers should take a fresh look at their overall delivery networks and perform a bottoms-up analysis of network and competitive options to optimize total shipping costs.”
