Supply Chain Design Consulting
Many manufacturers run supply chains that were never designed: plants, warehouses and suppliers added one by one as the business grew. 7th Mile Shift helps mid-sized manufacturers in Hosur, Bengaluru, Chennai, Coimbatore and across India design a supply chain that serves customers reliably at the lowest total cost.
We look at the whole chain, from suppliers and plants to warehouses and customers, and set the strategy, network and planning processes that tie it together. Founder K. Veerabaskar has led supply chain work at TVS Motor Company and in automotive, packaging, textiles, rubber, ophthalmic and healthcare manufacturing.
What we do
We align your supply chain with how you compete, on cost, speed or service, and set clear targets for each part of the chain.
We work out how many warehouses or depots you need and where, and which plant should serve which market, by comparing cost and service across options.
We redesign how orders are received, promised, fulfilled and delivered, so promise dates are realistic and met.
We set up a monthly S&OP routine that brings sales, production, purchase and finance to one agreed plan.
We define the structure, roles and KPIs of your supply chain team, and coach the team until it runs the processes on its own.
Business benefits
- Better availability and delivery promises your customers can rely on
- Shorter lead times from order to delivery
- Lower total cost across transport, warehousing and inventory
- One plan that sales, production and purchase all work to
How we work
Every engagement follows The Shift Engine, our four-stage method:
- Diagnose: map your current supply chain end to end, with costs, lead times and service levels.
- Design: compare network and process options and agree the target design with you.
- Deploy: roll out the new network, processes and planning routines in phases.
- Drive: review KPIs with your team every month until the new design delivers.
