VRO Discrepancies
You cannot ignore a discrepancy.
Discrepancies are time consumming for the Supplier and the Customer because they have to be solved anyway to avoid component shortage.
Always try to understand if discrepancies are due to:
- a weak demand management: the forecasts sent to the Supplier are very different from the Pick-Up Order;
- a timing issue between ordering, promise and shipment;
- a manufacturing or capacity issue of the Supplier.
This is only by working with the Supplier that you are going to solve them. Communication is key!
You need to track the number of discrepancies per supplier, group their root causes using the Discrepancies Board classification and review them on a monthly basis with your Supplier. This is the best way to reduce them.
