CLIENT STORY
YOUR LEAN AND RELIABLE PARTNER FOR FASTENING SUPPLY AND INVENTORY MANAGEMENT SOLUTIONS.FALCONFASTENING.COM
Copyright 2014 Falcon Fastening Solutions, Inc.® | All Rights Reserved
SITUATION
In 2004, Spirax wanted to identify a cost savings strategy aimed at production components and consumables. MAJOR CHALLENGES:
• Demand/forecasting levels were inconsistent. As a result:
• The company struggled with high inventory levels (several months worth+) and the cost associated with this mode of operation.
• The company experienced downtime during significant production fluctuations.
• The percentage of time (labor hours) purchasing, receiving, stocking and managing the internal distribution/movement of these parts was disproportionate to the total spend on these parts.

ANALYSIS
• Spirax identified 600+ part numbers supplied by 65 vendors with whom purchases were <$75K per year.
• With Falcon’s help, Spirax analyzed how these items were purchased, received and stocked as well as the current production dollars tied up with in-stock inventory.
Objectives
Implement a program to consolidate as many vendors as possible
Reduce the financial investment in inventory
Reduce incidents of stock-outs affecting production
Restructure / reallocate internal labor to more important functions
Reduce movement of products in the plant and have more “point-of-use” items

2 YEAR RESULTS WITH FALCON
• Consolidation of 65 vendors to 1 partner/supplier
• Using Falcon’s Reliable Stock™ Onsite Branch solution, Spirax:
Virtually eliminated inventory investment. The onsite inventory is owned by Falcon until it is moved to the point-of-use location directly on the production floor. (On average, Spirax has 1-2 days worth of owned inventory)
Could make better use of internal labor hours since Falcon’s solution includes an onsite Branch Manager who manages the ordering, receipt, stocking and replenishment of inventory.
Eliminated inventory stock-outs using Falcon’s kanban method of POU replenishment Eliminated production downtime associated with their production components and
consumables.
