uilding a global presence across more than 30 countries is no easy feat, particularly for those occupying the competitive

food and beverage industry. Evolving consumer demands, changing government regulations and the emergence of new technologies are disrupting traditional business models, where the need to become increasingly sustainable has impacted the way in which consumers interact and engage with brands. Undergoing exponential growth in recent years, reaching US$15bn in sales, food and beverage giant Grupo Bimbo’s fresh, appetizing products continue to reach millions of retail outlets. An icon across the United States and Mexico with more than 100 brands under its umbrella, such as Bimbo, Marinela, Arnold and Oroweat, it houses one of the largest direct distribution networks in the world, as

well as one of the largest fleets in the Americas. Producing more than 13,000 products for its growing customer base, such high demand has placed considerable challenges across its supply chain, where speed, execution and exceptional planning have become increasingly vital. With sustainability firmly at its core, Grupo Bimbo has sought to ensure high quality products, focusing on a number of key areas as it undergoes a significant transformation. From ethics and compliance, corporate citizenship and responsibility, to governance, leadership and innovation, the business has worked hard to remain the number one choice for consumers worldwide. Recently recognized as one of the World’s Most Ethical Companies by the Ethisphere Institute, South America Logistics Regional Director, Jordi Rodriguez Pauli has accelerated Grupo Bimbo’s growth in LatAm, where he has sought to enhance its supply chain logistics capabilities and raise the bar to drive the chain’s professionalization. “I am leading the transformation of our logistics operations in regards to greater visibility, standardization and

Nunca tomaría una decisión de negocios tan importante, sin antes simularla

Hay actividades que ya no hacemos sin la asistencia de tecnología. Llegar a una nueva dirección es tarea del sistema de navegación. Nos evita contratiempos, mejora nuestra probabilidad de éxito. Las compañías también están aplicando tecnologías para sustentar decisiones críticas del negocio como el diseño de sus redes de distribución. Simulación aplicada al diseño y optimización la red de distribución Aunque no es un problema nuevo, el diseño de la red siempre será relevante y complejo. Determinar la mejor ubicación de un CEDIS o calcular los niveles y ubicación del inventario, son aspectos críticos que impactan el costo y la estrategia de servicio. En Supply Chain Institute, hemos comprobado que al simular podemos medir el comportamiento de estos y otros indicadores bajo cambios en la configuración de la red, manteniendo el riesgo al mínimo. Bienvenidas las ideas disruptivas El exitoso modelo global de una compañía líder en la industria de perecederos consiste en entregar todos los productos del catálogo, diariamente, a todos sus clientes para cumplir la promesa de marca: frescura. Sin embargo, recorrer hasta 2,000 Km desde el CEDIS más cercano con transportes parcialmente llenos, y transferencias frecuentes de extremo a extremo de la región hacen que el modelo estándar resulte financieramente prohibitivo.

En sesiones multidisciplinarias diseñamos los escenarios a simular, aplicando selectivamente (no en general) conceptos como refrigeración, fabricación de lotes más grandes, creación de buffers cerca de la demanda, consolidación de nodos, racionalización de SKUs y optimización de fletes (cubo y frecuencia) mediante la planificación de inventarios. La iteración final muestra el potencial de reducir 22% del costo unitario. Simular la red de distribución ofrece tres ventajas sobre el enfoque tradicional: 1. El modelo se le entrega al cliente (con capacitación) para probar otros escenarios. 2. El módulo de optimización explora grandes combinaciones de variables para encontrar soluciones óptimas. 3. Es posible configurar a nivel de procesos para considerar factores operativos claves a hora de implementar, con granularidades imposibles para la programación entera mixta. Así, la simulación hace las veces de una brújula de negocios, orientando al equipo en la dirección de las ideas de mayor valor movilizándonos a hallar las formas más eficientes de operar. Adiós al desgaste de la prueba y el error. Autor: Enrique Elízaga Calvillo Director Norteamérica | Supply Chain Institute

We are already migrating toward actions that help us compete in these terms.” It is clear that technology will continue to set the tone and add further value across the supply chain at Grupo Bimbo. By reshaping its distribution networks, investing in exceptional enterprise resource planning (ERP) software and onboarding new digital applications, productivity levels are set to rise and deliver a number of advantages which are transversal and will deliver optimum efficiency. “We must

These new applications will help us become a company that’s quicker and more flexible to adapt to the market’s needs,” affirms Rodriguez Pauli. “Words like AI, IoT and Cloud are a reality at Grupo Bimbo. There’s a lot to do and learn, but we’re moving ahead. With IoT, we’re linking many of our production lines; through AI, we’re improving our demand plans and forecasts; and Cloud is becoming our platform for digitalizing the whole chain.” Successfully adopting Cloud and an advanced logistics suite, along with other tools will also deliver further traceability, enable Grupo Bimbo to modify processes, and will improve decision-making which will positively impact its customers. Digitalization will remain at the forefront of Grupo Bimbo’s ongoing transformation.
