• Sales good – yet room for category growth

• Industry standard packaging - opportunity to improve

• High shrinkage (10%+) due to damages and theft

• Environmental compliance

• Space efficiency – packaging space hungry

• Requirement for suppliers to source tag

• Opportunity to reduce Environmental tax levy

• Customer wants to touch and feel the product

WE HAD A PROBLEM!

Page 46: Tackling Shrinkage to Improve Your Bottom Line

Sainsbury’s - First Steps - Alone

Initial internal review :

Complex area .. Not main focus of Supermarkets

Inconsistent Store Procedures

High level of ‘Rejected Returns Credits’ (Sale or Return)

Wholesale supplier input .. End to End process

You will see . . How ECR provided the “introduction” agency

You will hear. .How Sainsbury’s were not alone

Page 47: Tackling Shrinkage to Improve Your Bottom Line

The SectorThe Publisher & The Product

The Product Each issue uniquely ‘created’ ..new barcode

Magazines are not like tins of beans.

The Publisher Determines look, feel, & quantity ‘created’ Places (Pushes) into the market .. advertisers, not just sales Sale Or Return … reverse logistics

The ‘Creative’ mix means risk of: Poor attention to practical detail …

Sector Tensions & Shrink

Market Tensions !!!

Shrink hit the Industry agenda late 2002 … and went TOP!

Retailers clear… “It’s Publishers’ and Wholesalers’ fault”. Publishers clear…. “No it isn’t” Wholesalers …. The meat in the sandwich!

Industry-wide collaborative project group formed Establish .. Define .. Recommend .. But an uneasy background!

Page 51: Tackling Shrinkage to Improve Your Bottom Line

End-To-EndIndustry-Wide Shrink Initiative

A Meeting of Minds? ……. More a Clashing of Heads!

Deal in Facts …. Not Noise! Definition … Principles … and Method ECR Blue Book … Recipe !

Our Principles All committed .. Solve .. Don’t just shift the problem! Overall structure .. prioritise

Measuring Stock Loss:Measuring Stock Loss:Developing a KPIDeveloping a KPI

Dr Paul Chapman

Cranfield School of Management

Page 65: Tackling Shrinkage to Improve Your Bottom Line

Issues to Consider

• A clear definition of “Stock Loss”

• The scope of the issue

• Method of calculation

• Methods of valuation

• Focused management action

Page 66: Tackling Shrinkage to Improve Your Bottom Line

A Clear Definition of “Stock Loss”?

• Internal theft + external theft + process failure (including waste) + inter-company fraud

• All inputs that cannot be accounted for

Page 67: Tackling Shrinkage to Improve Your Bottom Line

The Scope of the Issue

• Holistic, supply chain view:– raw material to shopper, e.g. the cow to the fridge, including

returns

• Being practical:– Limit the start of the supply chain to either:

• Declared production in the factory• Product in manufacturer’s DC

– Limit end point in the supply chain to either:• The shelf• The checkout

Page 68: Tackling Shrinkage to Improve Your Bottom Line

Method of Calculation

• Total Stock loss = Known loss + unknown loss– Discrepancy between book stock and physical stock– Net inventory + net movements– (opening stock – closing stock) + ((purchases + incoming

transfers) – (sales + outgoing transfers))

• Where known loss:= Known theft processed + Known errors processed(including: write offs; damage; donations; mark downs; cost of sales

adjustments; out-of-date; tasting)

To Conclude: Deliver Focussed Action

• Use your data– Top level KPI reveals total opportunity– Cascade measure to expose under performance

• Know how to take action– The ECR Roadmap

• Dedicate the capacity to implement

• Drive progress against targets
