HF-SRC-2025-014) highlighted three pain points: 11% of production halts in 2025 were driven by stock-outs of M8–M16 hex-bolt ranges, current lead times from three existing suppliers average 7.4 business days, and consolidation of the fastener catalogue across three plants is blocked by fragmented pricing.","proposed_solution":"Acme will reserve 45 SKUs in dedicated bays at the Brussels warehouse, operate a vendor-managed-inventory (VMI) signal tied to Heinrich's SAP ECC via EDI (EDIFACT ORDERS/ORDRSP), and introduce a single price list covering all three plants with quarterly volume-rebate true-up.","scope_of_work":"(1) Baseline audit of current SKU usage and consumption patterns.
