Centralized Procurement Alliance: Unite regional SME furniture manufacturers to form a procurement alliance, raw material suppliers (e.g., panels, hardware) via bulk procurement, reducing procurement costs by 10%-15%. A “raw material sharing warehouse” is also established to allocate materials on demand, reducing raw material inventory pressure for SMEs.
Smart Logistics Integration: Connect to third-party logistics platforms, integrating trunk transportation (furniture from factories to regional warehouses) and same-city delivery (regional warehouses to stores/users). Adopt a “shared-vehicle delivery” model to reduce unit logistics costs.
Lean Production Optimization: Introduce a material waste monitoring system to real-time track panel and fabric waste during production; reduce scrap by optimizing cutting plans (e.g., AI automatic layout). Meanwhile, implement small-batch, multi-batch production to match small-order market demand and reduce slow-moving inventory.
Supplier Hierarchical Management: Grade raw material and fitting suppliers by “quality + delivery timeliness,” prioritizing cooperation with high-grade suppliers to reduce supply chain risks and communication costs.
