Order winners and Order qualifiers
Order winners and order qualifiers are the competitive features
of any organization that the customers examine before making
a purchase. So it is necessary for a company to analyse the
same.
KFC has a very simple supply chain. As the operations are on a relatively
small scale, all the operations are performed by the company (i.e. Cupola)
itself. The supply chain process can be summed up as a 3 step process:
Step 1:
Raw materials procured from various suppliers and stored at two
warehouses; the normal-storage and the cold-storage.
Step 2:
All product preparation is done at the branch except for the marination of
chicken and sold to customers at the branch itself or delivered at
the desired locations.
Step 3:
Warehouses replenish each branch according to their requirement (usually
three times a week)using company’s own vehicles and drivers upon the
request of the branch manage
STORAGE AND INVENTORY MANAGEMENT
Chicken
Inventory of chicken is for 15 days. The storage area for
chicken is not in the warehouse itself but in a separate cold
storage area built right beside the warehouse in each region.
Before marinating, the chicken is stored in an organized form
in six separate cold storage rooms whose area is around 45 to
50 square feet, having a height of around 7 feet. The chicken is
stored in the same baskets which it comes in and stays there
till its turn for marinating .Marination is done in a separate
room in the same cold storage facility where the chicken is
first washed and mixed with the herbs and spices it needs. The
mixture is fed into a machine known as ‘Tumbler’ which
marinates it. After this is done the chicken is re packed into
labeled clear storage room again in organized form.
