BOOTS

(SFSC)The Store Friendly Supply Chain 2

BOOTS (The Store Friendly Supply Chain 2) The Boots Retail physical supply chain is based around a series of central warehouses and distribution centers (DCs). The DCs act as both regional common stock rooms (CSRs) and cross-docking centers (CDCs) for onward delivery to stores. It has been recognized that this infrastructure is becoming increasingly dilapidated and has a high operating cost due to its distributed nature and its reliance on manual processes.

The Store Friendly Supply Chain 2 (SFSC2) Programme has been initiated to implement a revised physical supply chain and associated processes and systems, based on consolidation and automation of the central warehouses, the removal of stock holding at DCs and the rationalization and relocation of DCs. The Store Friendly Supply Chain 2 (SFSC2) Programme has identified changes to the physical supply chain operation for BTC. The business requirements generated from this initiative will lead to substantial change from a physical infrastructure, systems, processes and people perspective. The supply chain has not undertaken changes of this magnitude since the implementation of the DALLAS controlled warehouse in the early 1990’s. System changes since then have been restricted to developments and enhancements to existing applications and not replacement.
