CRITICAL ITEM CALLOUTS As this journey continues, there will be critical interactions, needs and contacts for various areas to support seamless transitions of facilities into the self-managed network. These are detailed on the following pages. Suppliers will have new and/or expanded connection points inside the self-managed supply chain. However, along the way, suppliers will continue to interact with third-party companies, like C&S Wholesale Grocers, until the transformation is complete or a facility transitions into the self-managed network. Each specific facility’s overview in this toolkit speaks to the purchase order conversion dates, as well as other specific information. DC REPLENISHMENT/PURCHASING As procurement of product transitions to a self-managed model, teams from ADUSA companies will manage day-to-day buying and demand planning. Through this model, ADUSA companies will have full alignment and integration of demand planning in support of each of the great local brands and across the supply chain. This will enable ADUSA companies to better partner with suppliers on demand planning and fulfillment. To make facility transitions easier for suppliers, we will be implementing a PO mirroring process . Open POs from C&S that are due after the facility transition date and cannot be received prior to that date will need to be canceled and then a new PO for the same items, same quantities, and same due date will be initiated by ADUSA Distribution. To provide context and assist with your internal forecasting and production planning, we have provided general information on the inventory flow path for each facility. There will be no changes to assortment at this time. The inventory process can differ by facility. Pay special attention to each facility’s overview on the following pages. The diagram below provides an overview of what we know so far for the flow of inventory for the go-live of each facility within the self-managed network:
BETH GROCERY:
D emand will transition from management by C&S Wholesale Grocers to management by ADUSA companies. ADUSA companies will purchase existing inventory and assortment will remain the same.
YORK GROCERY: D emand will transition from management by C&S Wholesale Grocers to management by ADUSA companies. ADUSA companies will purchase existing inventory and assortment will remain the same. CHESTER PERISHABLE: Demand will transition from management by C&S Wholesale Grocers to management by ADUSA companies. ADUSA companies will purchase existing inventory and assortment will remain the same. FREEZER SOUTH: Demand will come from the York Freezer and Aberdeen facilities, and the Freezer South will be stocked through transfers from York Freezer and Aberdeen facility. FREEZER NORTH: Demand will come from the Westfield facilities, and the Freezer North will be stocked through transfers from the Westfield facility.
