synchronizing the entire chain.

Customer Service
Customer Service plays astrategic role within CS&L
Imagine if…
… you have to serve your customer with your eyes covered.
… you have to understand your customers, but they speak in a language you cannot comprehend.
… you don‟t know what your customers expect from you.
How good do you think the service you provide is going to be?

This model was generally adopted by the big retailers in both the Developed and Developing Markets. However …
EDI Messages facilitate the data exchange between Kraft and our customers / suppliers

Implementation of EDI messages offers multiple benefits
EDI provides speed:
EDI is the tool that can enable businesses to achieve increases in speed, with accompanying decreases in document cycle time.
EDI improves accuracy:
Electronic transfer of data eliminates the need for copying data from one paper document to another, or for keying the data into a business application screen. With manual data transfer, errors are likely. In the typical manual purchase order, a person enters or copies information from the paper form at least once. With EDI, improved accuracy is obtained in several different ways:
• Electronic data is usually derived from a database, where data has been subject to prior validation.
• Electronic documents are transferred accurately, regardless of size. If transmission of a large document is not successful, users can invoke re-transmission procedures rapidly.
• Even if several different parties process the electronic document, with each party adding data to the existing document, none has the ability to alter previously entered information.
84
Implementation of EDI messages offers multiple benefits
EDI provides security:
The communication via Value Added Network (VAN) or directly via Internet (AS2) allows to exchange electronic data between sender and recipient in a reliable, secure and traceable way. The VAN handles all transfer of information from the sender‟s mailbox into the receiver‟s mailbox. This allows trading partners to be certain that they can freely exchange information but at the same time they can avoid giving direct access to their own internal systems.
Benefits for Kraft:Reduced manual workload through electronic documents import (e.g. ORDER).Less errors than by manual order entry.Less returns through more exact ordering.
Benefits for the customer:More reliable communication, faster document flow, no retype errors. Reduced manual workload through electronic documents import (e.g. INVOIC).
Mutual benefits:Improved customer service through quicker order placement and fulfilment.Less errors through joint Master Data alignment.

EDI share is highly diverse across Kraft regions,and also across countries within the same region

Includes the deals that are linked to Supply Chain and administration. These deals must be set up in line with a strict set of guidelines and principles.
Includes the agreed payment terms and the deals linked to them.
Includes all the deals that we give to a retailer and that serve to grow our business. Only the deals that are fully reflecting the Pay For Performance principle can be included here.
Includes all the deals that are not impacting the sell-out as they are granted to the retailer without a real return or benefit for Kraft. Our Vision is that this bucket should be kept at the lowest possible level and ideally deleted.

C2S: Cost To Serve is an enabler for cost transparencywhich can drive efficiency and profitabilitythroughout the Supply Chain.
Cost To Serve provides support in budgeting, network changes and evaluation of supplier competitive offers in tenders.
Scenario modeling capabilities open possibilities to identify out-of-the-box solutions, and assist in the understanding of cost trends and drivers.
Its collaborative framework can be used to define customer P&Ls and support collaboration with global Log Ops for efficient unit load design.
Cost To Serve is a strong negotiation tool in our toolbox for the developing Modern Trade environment, enabling proactivity and speed in response to customers‟ requests.
Cost To Serve will impact transportation, enabling a clearer visibility of transportation-related costs.
Overall, the Cost To Serve concept enables harmonization of business processes, cost budgeting, and logistic contract structures such as Efficiency Bracket Pricing.

2. Empathy
At the beginning of the innovation journey, we identify problems and opportunities, and seek inspiration for solutions from various sources.
We look to stories and observations to inspire us to design better experiences for people
Analogous Observations – Visiting other industries to observe parallel or like process. Real examples (there have been 80 globally) have included;
• Blood Bank• Car Manufacturer• Newspaper• Ice Cream Store• Milk Delivery Service• Hotel Cafeteria• Brewery• Airport Baggage Claim System• Coupon Redemption Centre• Flower Shop• Traffic Control Centre• Green Market• EBay Super Seller• Grain Mill

3. Sense Making
Sense Making is the act of making sense of what we‟ve seen and heard during the Empathy activity
Drawing conclusions and analogies from the observations made in the Empathy phase
“Scrapbooking” of findings as a group Connecting the dots and finding
relevance to what we observed in our own industry or relationship
It‟s a process that takes us from inspiration to ideas, from stories to solutions
By aggregating, editing and condensing down what we‟ve learned, sense making enables us to establish a new perspective and identify opportunities for innovation
Sense Making is crucial to providing a good direction for the rest of the

4. Brainstorming
A multi layered Divergent and Convergent Process – going from the many to the core
To many people, brainstorming is synonymous with an undisciplined conversation
We‟ve found that conducting a really good brainstorm involves lots of discipline and takes preparation
While brainstorming, you should be fearless in coming up with out of the box ideas, because it‟s often the far reaching ideas that lead to breakthrough solutions

5. Prototyping
Prototypes are often thought of as a way to test whether a concept works or as a way of validating a concept
We like to think of prototypes as something broader
They can be tangible as in products, or more business processed focused
They are disposable tools that are used throughout the concept development process, both to validate ideas and to
help us generate them
A 6 Step Process for Driving Collaboration and Innovation (1 or 2 Day Programs)
104
6. Action Plan Development
Implementation is an iterative process that will likely require many prototypes and mini-experiments to perfect the solution and support system
This process invites us to work in the belief that new things are possible, and that you can evolve both the solutions that you deliver and the way your organization is designed simultaneously.
An action plan activity will provide time to plan mini-experiments that will be executed after the workshop by participants
In each case, we ask that the teams go out and implement a version (small pilot) of their prototypes within 45 days
to gain insight

CPFR: Collaborative Planning, Forecasting and Replenishment is a further tool to optimize inventories and reduce out of stocks.
CPFR is a concept that aims to enhance Supply Chain integration by supporting and assisting joint practices.CPFR seeks cooperative management of inventory through joint visibility and replenishment of products throughout the Supply Chain.Information shared between suppliers and retailers aids in planning and satisfying customer demands through a supportive system of shared information.This allows for continuous updating of inventory and upcoming requirements, making the end-to-end Supply Chain process more efficient.Efficiency is created through the decrease expenditures for merchandising, inventory, logistics, and transportation across all trading partners.

KIDS: Shared demand data is a cornerstone toward acustomer-focused, demand-driven supply network.
Historically, the customer demand signal has been defined as the customer‟s purchase order while data sharing from Retailer to Manufacturer was limited to customer warehouse level insight (VMI). Over the past few years, several Retailers have invested in the capability to share store level data on a daily basis. Wal-Mart has been the clear leader in this area as they have offered the Manufacturing community access to a wide variety of daily information not previously available.
With visibility all the way through to the store checkout, we can add more power to our partnership.
By using actual customer demand data, we can discover distribution voids, target out of stocks, optimize replenishment, improve forecasting and promotional execution, and plan and execute against real market intelligence.
A winning scenario for any Retailer!

PART 3:TRADITIONAL TRADE
Distributor Development –It„s all about Collaboration
Traditional Trade Summary
• Traditional Trade in Developing Markets is a 1.8 trillion US$ market; with 15.4 mio. stores (Nielsen) it represents 99% of the store universe in Developing Regions.
• With about 3.2 US$bn revenue and a growth of 43% (‟08 vs. ‟06), Traditional Trade stores in Developing Regions are KI‟s most valuable customers, e.g. revenue is 8 times higher and growth 11pp higher than KI‟s business with WalMart.
• Efficiently building quality distribution in TT stores in a multi-stage Route-to-Market is boththe key challenge as well as one of the biggest growth opportunities in Developing Regions.
• While Kraft Foods is in line with or even outperforming main competitors in TT distribution in key markets, analysis shows that double digit revenue growth in key countries through further extension of quality distribution is a realistic goal.
• There are five key enablers to exploit distribution potential:
• Affordable portfolio at relevant price points
• Strengthened distributor networks
• Optimized direct outlet coverage
• Upgraded POS Excellence
• Leverage Best Practices between KI Regions / Countries supported by newly established KI Sales TT Council
* KI Sales Traditional Trade Council, 2009. Figures do not include Cadbury’s.

We have gained plenty of insights. Action time has come now!
Customer Segmentation Method
• The common method used for segmentation is primarily based on value, i.e. top 10, top 20, or top 100 etc., based on revenue sold.
• KI Sales created a “Customer Segmentation Model”, applied for Distributor segmentation by considering three elements:
– Value
– Skill
– Will (Willingness to collaborate)
And the scoring is easy: Each criteria will receive a score between 1-3, with 3 always being the highest score.

Customer Classifications
• Transactional – Treats us on equal terms with all other vendors. Total focus is on price, sees no value in services we offer other than product or is too small to warrant any personalized attention.
• Preferred – Some special treatment or higher expectations usually derived from scale or importance of our brand.
• Consultant – Actively seeks our advise in generating incremental demand, efficient supply of products or use of insights.
• Strategic B2B – Involves us in the strategic planning of the business and provides insights not really shared with other competitors.

Good Career Planning can deliver top-tier results
Career Planning Principles:
• Development is a career-long process and is most effective when it includes diverse experiences and focuses on doing the work of the organization
• Career development is a shared responsibility between the manager, the employee and functional leaders
• It is important to gain and demonstrate full experience to drive development of relevant competencies & skills before moving from one assignment to the next
• Critical experiences and competencies will continue to evolve as the needs of the organization change; employees must continually review and adapt their career plans
• Employees must keep their skills and experiences relevant to business needs
To deliver top-tier results, Kraft must continue to pursue the strategy of Building a High Performing Organization.“When you do well, Kraft Foods does well. As you improve your skills and expand your
capabilities, both you and the company benefit.” Irene Rosenfeld
Career Framework is based on people‟s experience
• Building capabilities through experiences
• Mastery of skills and competencies before moving up to the next potential assignment
• Gaining experience that adds up to or improves one‟s capability (movement does not always equate to promotion)
• Developing broad leadership skills that ensure success in a variety of jobs
