The material planning stage after the project has been awarded to SSD (through the Material Planning and Control Group)
The Department is responsible for the planning and management of the supply chain process with regards to both raw materials and fasteners, in addition to other special buyouts. This is done through the Material Planning and Control Group and includes the following major activities:
- The close involvement and coordination with the Purchasing Department with regards to the sourcing process and the selection of optimum suppliers whose delivery dates satisfy the project’s requirements.
-
Zamil Steel / SSD uses Oracle ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) applications for the planning, ordering, tracking, receiving, and issuance of materials.
The thorough tracking of ordered materials for each phase of each project, which in turn is reflected through a weekly released tracking report until the materials are fully received at our shop. This report serves as a powerful tool for the fabrication planning as well as for the phase wise tracking of the material across different projects.
