VMI ????? A Distribution channel operating system
Introduced in the USA in the early 1990s
System which is sweeping through many areas of retail
System which is practiced between manufacturer or middleman and a retailer
System in which inventory at distributer /retailer is monitored and managed by manufacturer/vendor
System which includes determining appropriate order quantities , managing proper product mix and configuring appropriate safety stock levels

VMI Vs (TIM) Traditional inventory management
VMI is typically the opposite of the inventory management approach
VMI works in the reverse to link partners together and to grant authority to the partner who is in the best position to make inventory replenishment decisions.
VMI optimizes supply chain performance
VMI supplier has access to customer’s inventory data
VMI supplier is responsible for maintaining the inventory level required by the customer
The process is to resupply inventory by the vendor via scheduled reviews
VMI overall goal is to support total value chain cost minimization by pushing decision making on replenishment activities furthest up the supply chain.

VMI in Apparel manufacturing
Some of the potential areas of VMI application in apparel manufacturing are procurement of the consumables i.e.
Fabrics
Sewing thread
Sewing needle
Zippers
Sewing machine spare parts

For example practicing VMI between needle supplier and apparel manufacturer will have negligible cost and space saving to the manufacturer
VMI is also about accurate prediction of quality and quantity of merchandise by the vendor
While quality of merchandise (type of needle) can be easily predicted (certain), quantity (of needle) is uncertain and needs knowledgeable prediction by the needle vendor

Areas Similarity with retail environment
Disparity with retail environment
Sewing Needle
Like retail sales, companies those follow “break to replace” policy, sewing needle consumption (only quantity) pattern also can’t be predicted accurately
Unlike retail sales the consumption (only type) pattern of sewing needle can be accurately predicted if company follow “fixed-life needle replacement” policy.
Spare parts Like retail sales can’t be predicted with 100% accuracy, spare parts consumption (only quantity) pattern also can’t be predicted accurately for companies with “break to replace” policy.
Unlike retail sales the consumption (only type) pattern of sewing machine parts can be accurately predicted if company follow good preventive maintenance policy

VMI Case Studies in Apparel manufacturing in India
An article by Prof. Prabir Jana carried at Nottingham Trent University , UK
One apparel Manufacturer exporter from Bangalore wanted to experiment VMI concept
The demand pattern (based on production schedule) was shared with thread manufacturer
Thread supplier in consultation with apparel manufacturer calculated actual quantity of thread
In the new concept the onus of surplus or shortage totally went to thread supplier
![Page 14: VMI ? ? ? ? ? A Distribution channel operating system Introduced in the USA in the early 1990s System which is sweeping through many areas of retail.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062803/56649f265503460f94c3e04d/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Somehow thread quantity calculation was never found to be accurate (with best of effort from both parties),
Resulting thread supplier has to bear the cost of surplus thread
Thread is perishable item so thread manufacturer withdraw from the arrangement
The apparel manufacturer went on to have a risk sharing agreement with another thread supplier
In the new risk sharing agreement

One apparel manufacturer have an JIT (Just In Time) delivery arrangement with a thread supplier
Under this arrangement
Manufacturer block certain quantity of thread Thread inventory is maintained supplier’s premises Thread delivered Just-in-time (Only 8 hrs)
Beyond certain period thread supplier is free to sell to other manufacturer
