Cross Docking
• Cross docking is the movement of materials from the receiving docks directly to the shipping dock
• Goods do not need to be placed in storage, creating a significant cost savings in inventory and material handling
• Reduces direct cost associated with excess inventory • Reduces product damages and product obsolescence
![Page 6: Distribution strategies with case study](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022102814/548c615db479597e6a8b4760/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Cross Docking
• Two basic form of Cross Docking1. Basic cross dock: The packages are moved directly from the arriving vehicles to the
departing ones. This form of cross docking does not need a warehouse and a
simple transfer point is enough.2. Flow Through cross Dock.
When material arrive and they are in large packages , these packages are opened and broken into smaller quantities , sorted consolidated to deliver them to different customer and transferred to vehicles

Cross Docking
• Benefits of cross docking1. Helps to improve the speed of flow of the products 2. Reduce cost
a) Labour is removed from the job of storage
b)helps to eliminate the two most expensive distribution operations.
3. Helps to reduce the amount of finished goods inventory that is required to be maintained as safety stock

• Cross docking requires a strong IT base and real time information sharing facilities
• Is appropriate for appropriate for products with large predictable demands
• Requires a great degree of coordination and synchronization between the incoming and outgoing shipments which ,in turn relies on better information and planning

Milk Run
• A milk run is a route in which a truck either delivers product from a single suppliers to multiple retailers
• Multiple suppliers to single retailers.

Direct Shipping
• Method of distribution in which goods come directly from suppliers to retail stores.
• The routing of each shipment & manager only need to decide on quantity to ship & mode of transportation to use.
• It eliminates need of intermediate facilities e.g. warehouses & distribution centres.

Direct Shipping
• ADVANTAGES : Elimination of intermediaries Saves timeLess DamageImproved accuracy
![Page 17: Distribution strategies with case study](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022102814/548c615db479597e6a8b4760/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Direct Shipping
Challenges• Large retail stores : It is justified if the retail stores are large
enough. With small size of retail stores cost increases.
• Higher costs : Due to system of direct distribution the costs of transporting the goods may be higher than other systems of distribution.
![Page 18: Distribution strategies with case study](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022102814/548c615db479597e6a8b4760/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Direct Shipping
Challenges• Hassle for store personnel : e.g. more
deliveries,paperwork,loading & unloading.• No safety stock
![Page 19: Distribution strategies with case study](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022102814/548c615db479597e6a8b4760/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Hub & Spoke Model
• H&S network involves a series of nodes (hubs), connected by arcs (spokes) that represent viable transportation alternatives between two nodes.
![Page 20: Distribution strategies with case study](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022102814/548c615db479597e6a8b4760/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Hub & Spoke Model
• Companies centralize large distribution centers which essentially do three things– receive goods/information coming from many
suppliers– consolidate goods/information according to the
location where they are to be shipped– ship them individually to their final destination.
![Page 21: Distribution strategies with case study](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022102814/548c615db479597e6a8b4760/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Processes that use Hub and Spoke
• Manufactured goods:– e.g. Retail
• Services: – e.g. Airlines,Cargo Airlines
![Page 22: Distribution strategies with case study](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022102814/548c615db479597e6a8b4760/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
How it Works
• Pure Hub and Spoke vs. Hybrid Hub and Spoke
E.g. Parcel or shipping industries E.g. Airline industry
![Page 23: Distribution strategies with case study](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022102814/548c615db479597e6a8b4760/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Hub and Spoke vs. Point to Point
• One model consists of centralized transportation while the other model consists of many routes that are decentralized
• Hub and spoke design simplifies the network of routes

Benefits
• Having a hub and spoke can decrease the complexity of distribution.
• Transportation cost reduced• There is less time spent in transport which directly reduces
the cost of the activity• Management costs• Management specialists generally focus on one location
for distribution logistics
![Page 25: Distribution strategies with case study](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022102814/548c615db479597e6a8b4760/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Benefits
• Economies of scale– By having larger loads, you take advantage of
lower per unit costs• Proximity to customer. -- Goal being to supply to a maximum
amount of customers in a minimum amount of time.
![Page 26: Distribution strategies with case study](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022102814/548c615db479597e6a8b4760/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Drawbacks
• Disruption at the hub
• Bound by hub capacity
• Cargo must pass through the hub before reaching its destination, results in longer journey.
• Inflexible, changes at the hub, or even in a single route affects the whole network.
![Page 27: Distribution strategies with case study](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022102814/548c615db479597e6a8b4760/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Pool Distribution
• Pool distribution is the distribution of orders to numerous destination points within a particular geographic region.
• Characteristics include a high frequency of regular shipments in LTL quantities, typically in the 150 to 10,000 pound range.
![Page 28: Distribution strategies with case study](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022102814/548c615db479597e6a8b4760/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Pool Distribution
• Instead of shipping direct from origin shipper to consignee, orders are shipped on consolidated trailers direct to regional terminals.
• There, the pool is offloaded, segregated and sorted by consignee, then reloaded onto local delivery trucks for delivery to the ultimate destinations.
![Page 29: Distribution strategies with case study](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022102814/548c615db479597e6a8b4760/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Benefits
• When manufactures have multiple shipments bound for a specific region, it is simple, cost effective alternative to LTL.
• Speed merchandise to retail outlets.• Meet customer delivery requirements.• Reduce delivery cost to customers.

DISTRIBUTION NETWORK Courier service
– Though the cost associated with this distribution system are
high, the customer gets the delivery of the goods at the
doorstep.
– This system of distribution is especially useful when the
spare parts are urgently required as the production has
stopped due to the failure of a particular part.
Air freight service
– Cheaper system as custom clearance is handled by customer
itself
– It provide faster service in comparison with other modes of
transportation
