Meet your Operations Team
The acronym “OTIF” refers to ON TIME, IN FULL, and along with availability, price, and product performance is very much part of the core service which Plastribution provides.
The team acts as the interface between our suppliers and our customers ensuring that the physical movement of plastic raw materials happens in a timely and efficient manner.
Often goods not only have travelled by road to their final destination, but in reaching your factory they may also have undergone journeys by sea and or rail, often passing through busy ports and, for those goods arriving from outside the EU, crossing borders.
As part of that process, payment is required for activities such as customs clearance and import duties before the goods can be released for import.
Where goods are held in stock, arrangements need to be made to ensure suitable storage locations, and individual products must be easily identified for delivery to their final destination.
Supply chains are complex and there is the need to ensure a wide variety of activities are coordinated, and typically a range of sub-contractors managed.
Craig Share 01 Operations Manager
By managing this complexity we can be relied upon to ensure that
our OTIF promises are met, and in the few cases where something goes wrong, we are able to advise customers as soon as possible so that contingency plans can be made.
As ever, customer feedback is a vital component of ensuring that we continue to meet your expectations, so please let us know how we are performing.
As part of the Supply Chain Management Knowledge Transfer Partnership that we have been running in conjunction with the University of Hull, we have come to further recognise the significance of managing the physical movement of goods in order to optimise both availability and, most significantly, OTIF.
On this basis, we have appointed Craig Share to the newly-created position of Operations Manager, and recruited Kelly Gamble as an Operations Service Representative to join our already very experienced team who share more than 50 years knowledge.
This is another example of living up to our “Let’s make it work” motto by ensuring that we have the best resource in place in order to meet your requirements.
