Asset strategy: where to start?

      Many questions and potential options…
                                      Shall we integrate backwards? If yes,
                                      how far and with which technology?
           Where shall we extend our                                 Where and when shall we install
             resin capacity first?                                    product specific equipment?

      Shall we expand or close our
     South American extrusion line?

         When shall we expand our
                                                   ?
                                       Where shall we invest?
                                         What is the ROI?
                                                                              What is the immediate next step
                                                                               to reduce capacity unbalance?

                                                                              What do we do if the dollar
             lines in China?                                                    falls under 0.6 EUR?
                               Shall we open a line in India? If
                                    yes, with what specs?


      …which are interdependent (how can we
      model this with spreadsheets?)
19
Methodology

      Multidisciplinary   Supported by
      team, coordinated   universities for
      by supply chain     modeling and
      and including       scenario analysis
        Manufacturing
        Technology
        Purchasing
        Sales
        Business
        management
20
Asset strategy is developed using
              an optimization model

                     …instead of spreadsheet simulations
                                              Conceptual framework

                             Excel template




Mathematical model


                                              Investment plan presented
                                               to board & shareholders



21
Building a holistic model is
     time consuming and complex
      Organisation
          Need internal OR knowledge
      Data, data and data
            •   Forecast data, by month/sku
            •   Costing data by plant
            •   Freight data, by leg
            •   Duty data, by country
          Data issues
            •   Integrity
            •   Availability

      Modeling
          Objective function
            •   Profit maximisation
            •   Cost minimisation
          Variables
            •   Mixed Integer vs Linear
          Aggregation level
22
Value of the model

      NOT
        Absolute truth
        It remains a model -> hence
        abstraction of reality
      BUT
        Insight generation
        Scenario comparison using same
        baseline
23
        Speed
Saflex convinced shareholders to
         invest
     In the past 4 years,
     despite Chapter 11, Saflex
     managed to invest more
     than 200 M$
       Acquisition & expansion in
       Mexico
       New plant in Suzhou
       Third line in Ghent
       New resin plant in
       Antwerp
       Expansion of resin plant
24     in Indian Orchard US
