Production process and storage costs.<\/a><\/h5>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n

To survive in the market, it is important to make products that can be individualised. This particularly applies to the leisure goods industry. Most companies prepare the blanks up to the shaping production step and only apply the customer’s individual design once they receive an order. The planning cycles are usually in the range of half a year, which is one season. This means input materials and machines are planned for this period, allowing customer requests to be quickly processed. Seasonal fluctuations are to be expected, particularly for water and winter sports. When the production of blanks during a six-month period exceeds the number of orders, the blanks are put into intermediate storage. This results in storage costs of \u20ac12 per surfboard.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
Variety management <\/a><\/h5>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\nManaging the variety of products offered poses a problem to the production planning. Customers expect to be able to customize their surfboards individually when they buy above a certain price category. This individualisation is very important for design, final processing and enhancement of the blanks. The number of versions available partly depends on the production machines available. Depending on their type, these machines can be very flexible and can be adjusted to different designs with short tooling times. The input materials provided by the suppliers must be considered when calculating the maximum number of versions that can be produced. The composition of the material determines whether they are suitable for applying individual designs and modification requests made by the customer. These values are usually provided in the form of a variety index of the suppliers. A higher index corresponds with material or machines that can be used to produce more types of surfboards. The index is made up of the variety index of the production location and (60%) and the variety index of the supplier (40%).\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
Capacity planning<\/a><\/h5>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\nProduction capacity planning must consider both the capacity of the facilities available and the number of production employees. Although you can assume that your production workforce can work up to 20% more by paying them overtime, the machines are limited to their production capacity. The real estate agents at Mochelt Real Estate lead the field when it comes to the rental of new business space and production facilities in Santa Beach.\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
Purchasing decisions<\/a><\/h5>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\nYou can choose between two suppliers of input materials for leisure products in Santa Beach: Kahler Logistics and HighTech Synthetix. They offer the necessary input materials at different volume scales and prices. One input material per surfboard is required. The suppliers differ in terms of pricing and the number of surfboard variations that can be created with the material.
\nTo prevent production downtime, an additional express delivery to the selected supplier is automatically triggered if not enough input materials have been ordered. The prices for this additional delivery usually differ from the standard prices for regular orders. If you buy more input material for production than you need (e.g. to obtain better volume scaling), the excess is stored at \u20ac10 per input material.
\nThe materials required for production are usually automatically sourced from the appropriate suppliers using a Kanban system, so that the individual companies do not have to make direct buying decisions. The costs of operating materials in the leisure industry, e.g. to produce bicycles or surfboards, is \u20ac8 per unit.\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
Transport costs<\/a><\/h5>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\nA flat fee of \u20ac16 is currently charged for the transport of surfboards from your production site to the customer.\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

About us<\/b><\/p>\n

My name is Max Kahler, formerly a passionate surfer, and I have focused my logistics company on the supply and storage of all input materials for surfboards. Our specialisation has provided us with plenty of insight and experience in the surfing sector and we can, therefore, offer the complete package and provide all raw materials needed to produce surfboards. Our input material packages are particularly suitable for standardised processes and the use of volume scaling. We offer a variety index of 40.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Our services<\/b><\/p>\n

We offer many of our services on an individual basis and can only quote you a price once we have reached agreement. The current delivery conditions for all our standard services are shown in the following table:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

A combination of the optimal features<\/h3>\n
\n

About us<\/b><\/p>\n

We produce polyurethane sheets for use in sandwich design. This design is preferable for strong and stable structures, as the lightness of the plastic is combined with the damage tolerance of glass fibre. The sandwich design is therefore often used for production in the leisure and transport sector. Applications include industrial building sites, ship and boat construction as well as other dynamically stressed structures. Our sheets are made of three layers: a support material (e.g. rigid foam) as the sandwich core and two firm covering layers. They are mainly used for windsurfer and surfboard construction. They have optimal properties for these areas of application, as the sheets using HighTech’s Synthetix honey-comb technology are extremely resistant and can be cold-formed in three dimensions. They also have excellent thermal forming characteristics and optimal behaviour when it comes to material fatigue.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Our services<\/b><\/p>\n

Constant communication with our customers has enabled us to determine the amount of additional material needed for any use of our HighTech Synthetix sheets. We are, therefore, able to offer our customers suitable material packages. Our packages are not only perfectly adjusted to your needs, they also offer you a variety of production options, so that you can produce with flexibility and offer a wide product range. We offer a variety index of 70. Our services: We cover the domestic transport costs to serve our customers better. We look forward to offering you a suitable solution.
