- W329580825 abstract "Linde Gas is one division belonging to The Linde Group, which is an industrial gasand engineering company. With its 53000 employees in 70 countries and relatedsales of about €12 billion, The Linde Group is a world leading company.Linde Gas has two different types of delivery agreements which are seen asprofitable; the customer can call in himself to place an order (”Order Only”customer) or the customer can have a VMI (Vendor Managed Inventory)agreement. In the latter Linde Gas is initiating the deliveries. The purpose of thethesis is to analyze these delivery agreements in order to give recommendationsabout which delivery agreement that would be best for different customers of liquidproducts at Linde Gas. Planning and distribution costs for a specific customer aswell as the revenues will be taken into consideration.A mixture of a descriptive and comparative study together with case studies hasbeen used as method in this thesis. A descriptive study was used in order to identifyand describe the factors that are influencing the planning- and transportation costsand the revenues. Examples of such factors are planning time needed for differenttypes of deliveries, costs for a run-out in the customer’s tank and the relationshipbetween Linde and the customer. For these factors a description of how theyinfluence the costs and revenues has been made. The method used for this thesisalso has a comparative element. When describing how the factors explained aboveinfluence the costs and revenues a comparison has been made on how theseinfluences are different for customers with delivery agreements ”Order Only” andVMI. The factors investigated are only the factors for which the influences on thecosts and revenues are different depending on which delivery agreement thecustomer has. (There is no need to investigate those factors affecting the costs andrevenues to the same extent for both delivery agreements.) Techniques for datacollection that have been used are interviews, analysis of internal documents andusage of LCS (Liquid Control System), the logistics IT-system at Linde Gas wheredata about deliveries are saved.The outcome of the thesis is a check-list that can be used when deciding whichdelivery agreement that a specific customer should have. One important conclusionis that the planning horizon should be extended if the advantages of a VMI systemare to be realized. Finally, suggestions about how the organization dealing withthese delivery agreements can be improved are discussed." @default.
