| In recent years,the automotive industry has become an important force in China’s economic development,which has also increased competition among industries,and the biggest challenge for automakers and auto parts manufacturers in their supply chains is product innovation,quality assurance and cost control.As an important part of the automobile manufacturing supply chain,the auto parts industry has a great homogeneity between them,based on research and development,raw materials,manufacturing,logistics,the four key links of cost control content and methods and manufacturing industry.As a global top 100 auto parts company,BD company cost control system is relatively weak,cost control system is not perfect,while focusing only on cost reduction,but not focus on cost-effectiveness,lack of reasonable cost analysis methods,can’t find the right way and plan to reduce costs,BD Automotive Systems Co.,Ltd.wants to continue to gain competitive advantage.To maintain a high profit market share,effective operational control is very important.In view of the reasons for the high operating costs of BD company,the operating costs of BD company are divided,including product research and development costs,raw material procurement costs,manufacturing costs,logistics costs and adverse quality costs,and these five aspects of the present situation,through the analysis of five aspects,through the analysis of five aspects,The following five aspects of countermeasures are: first,from the aspect of research and development costs,maintain product function unchanged,reduce product cost,maintain cost,increase product function,re-examine the product and its replacement function re-design,eliminate non-value-added operations,designers comprehensively consider the feasibility and cost of new product development;Reduce research and development costs by reducing the number of modifications before design delivery.Second,from the raw material cost,through the domestication of imported raw materials,strengthen the control of suppliers,develop new suppliers,choose new consignment methods,strengthen the business training of procurement personnel,improve the supplier management system,optimize the supply chain,establish a sound procurement performance evaluation mechanism;Improve the professional level of foreign supplier management personnel,itemly monitor procurement indicators and other countermeasures to reduce the cost of raw material procurement procurement.Third,from the manufacturing cost,enhance the accuracy of production planning,ensure the integrity of production,train the professional skills of planners,improve productivity,improve product value flow and other countermeasures to reduce the waste of manufacturing costs.Fourth,from the aspect of bad quality cost,through the LPA to control the site,reduce the illegal operation on the site,regularly hold QCC activities,strengthen training,strengthen process management and other countermeasures to reduce the cost of bad quality.Fifth,from the logistics cost,for product characteristics,with the same specifications within the model of pipe products to determine the size material,enhance the generality of materials,optimize inventory structure,increase the utilization rate of storage area,improve the frequency of shipments,speed up inventory flow,develop new logistics carriers,reduce transportation costs and other countermeasures to reduce logistics costs.The result is a reduction in the cost of BD. |
