Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water…
ASN Accuracy Workshops
Purpose: Develop and maintain best practices for retail supply chain trading partners and solution providers to gain the most benefit from the implementation of advance shipment notifications.
Concept:• Create generic process flows that represent the ASN lifecycle, to include
• Produce best practices for ASN implementation• Leverage community resources to continually improve the process flows and best

Why Should We Care about ASNs and How We Use Them?
VisibilityASNs provide opportunity to leverage objective data to pro-actively manage your supply chain
Potential Benefits– Greater knowledge – Less dwell time– Faster receiving– Fewer inventory errors– Proactive vs. reactive– Higher in stocks‐Control
Exceptions are known in advance, allowing rapid problem resolution that minimizes negative consequences
Cost ManagementASNs enable effective resource scheduling and balanced workloads

Why Should We Care about ASNs and How We Use Them?
Ubiquitous• 77.5% of participants require ASNs• 75% of users require ASNs for all deliveries• 42% actually receive ASNs from all suppliers• 87% is the median percent of suppliers providing ASNs
ASN Program Goals for Retailers• 50% Speed up inbound receiving• 39.7% Greater supply chain visibility• 6.9% Better control over problems and exceptions • 3.4% Improve in-stock performance
ASN Accuracy Study• 2006 to 2010 data• 1.8 million cartons audited• 22.7 million units audited• 1.3 million units with problems

ASN Accuracy Study• 2006 to 2010 data from several retailers• 1.8 million cartons audited• 22.7 million units audited• 1.3 million units with problems

Why Should We Care about ASNs and How We Use Them?
Leverage existing tools“Virtually every supply chain software vendor has web‐based tools to enable suppliers to create ASNs.”
Adopt a broader focus“Use ASNs not just to improve inbound receiving, but as a critical element of improved supply chain visibility.”
Establish a formal process that targets problem areas and new participants“20% of the SKUs generate 80% of the costs and losses.”
Benchmark via scorecards and financial results
“Progress is made when ASNs are viewed, not as a standalone capability to help receiving, but as a key cornerstone of supply chain visibility.”Dan Gilmore, Editor, SC Digest
