La crescente focalizzazione delle imprese sulle core competence ha portato all’aumento dell’importanza della Supply Chain e delle relazioni cliente-fornitore.Si è assistito a un forte sviluppo dell’assetto produttivo interno delle imprese che ha portato ad ampi miglioramenti in questo ambito. La forte focalizzazione sulle operations non è stata seguita con la medesima intensità dall’efficientamento delle relazioni tra business. Le difficoltà relazionali e di coordinamento legate a un contesto multi-obiettivo tendono a far sottovalutare i vantaggi ottenibili dal raggiungimento di una Supply Chain efficiente e competitiva. Questo progetto di tesi si colloca in questo panorama con l’obiettivo di fornire un framework completo e dettagliato riguardante il non valore aggiunto nella relazione. Quest’ultimo non solo porta a una complessiva subottimalità nella Supply Chain, ma potrebbe essere affrontato con mutuo vantaggio degli attori in gioco in ottica win-win. Le tesi che questo lavoro sostiene sono: la relazione cliente fornitore è affetta da diverse inefficienze. Esse sono consistenti, significative e necessitano quindi di essere affrontate con attenzione prioritaria e un approccio sistemico. Gli obiettivi riguardano la dimostrazione dell’esistenza e l’identificazione delle opportunità presenti nella transazione cliente fornitore da un punto di vista olistico. L’identificazione di quanto tali inefficienze affliggano la relazione comporta la validazione definitiva delle tesi. Per quanto riguarda l’individuazione delle opportunità, viene proposto il Framework del Non Valore Aggiunto. Esso evidenzia tutte le opportunità di miglioramento riconducibili a inefficienze analizzando il processo di transazione fase per fase. La validazione è invece proposta seguendo due strade parallele. Da un lato essa è dimostrata tramite la caratterizzazione delle opportunità con gli attributi di spreco, i benefici ottenibili e le barriere alla risoluzione. Dall’altro lato la validazione avviene tramite l’analisi dei casi studio riguardanti imprese operanti in tre settori industriali differenti: meccanico, vitivinicolo e chimico. Quest’analisi, oltre a mettere in luce la presenza di determinate inefficienze in aziende reali, evidenzia il costo del processo di transazione e dà una stima delle problematiche in un’ottica di costo totale. Il forte valore aggiunto di questo lavoro risiede principalmente (i) nell’individuazione dettagliata, completa e sistemica delle inefficienze, (iii) nella validazione della loro significatività e (iii) nell’apertura alla possibilità di perseguire miglioramenti nella Supply Chain per portare valore al consumatore finale già da domani.

Abstract
The companies’ increasing focus on core competences led to higher importance of Supply Chains and supplier customer relationships. At the same time, a deep development of the internal production systems headed firms to wide improvements in this area. The high attention to operations has not been followed by a similar improvement in the efficiency of the customer supplier relationship. The difficulties in the coordination and the attention at different targets drove companies to undervalue the advantages of working with an efficient and competitive Supply Chain. Starting from these considerations, this paper aims at providing a complete and detailed framework about not value added activities in the supplier customer relationship. These activities lead to a sub-optimal state in the Supply Chain. Solving these problems, it is possible to create a better situation for the actors of the relation thanks to win-win solutions. This work states that many not value added activities affect the supplier customer relationship. These activities are consistent, relevant and they need to be managed with primary attention and a systematic approach. . Thus, the targets concern with the demonstration and individuation of the improvement opportunities in a holistic view. The analysis about the impact of these activities on the relation process completes the validation of the thesis. For what concerns the individuation of the opportunities, this work proposes the Framework of Not Value Added Activities. It highlights all the improvement opportunities, analyzing step by step the customer supplier transaction process. The validation is instead proposed following two different paths. Firstly, it comes with the characterization of the improvement activities with the wastes they generate, the achievable benefits and the barriers to the implementation. Secondly, the validation comes with the analysis of the case studies about real companies in three different industries: mechanical, wine producing and chemical. These analysis draw attention to the effective presence of the inefficiencies in real companies and, at the same time, highlight the cost of the transaction process and estimates the cost of such inefficiencies with a total cost approach. This work’s results are (i) the detailed and systemic identification of inefficiencies for the supplier customer relationship, (ii) the demonstration of their importance and (iii) the finding of concrete improvement possibilities for the Supply Chain to deliver value to the final costumer straight from tomorrow.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
