4 Why is Excellence in Service Parts Important? Industry Market Share Profit Automotive 20% 30% 50%+ Aerospace 30% 40% 50%+ Industrial 60% 70% 50%+ Regardless of industry, service parts is a major source of profit Copyright 2004 Deloitte Development LLC and Caterpillar Logistics.

5 Service Parts Planning is Different Production Planning 1. Demand for parts tied to demand for end item 2. High-volume demand tied to marketing/production 3. Engineering change processes well established 4. Outbound distribution planning and modeling 5. Lower SKU volume production parts only Service Parts Planning 1. Individual parts may require forecasting 2. Low-volume demand tied to parts failure/maintenance 3. Predecessor/successor linkages can be tricky 4. Inventory deployment may require complex tradeoffs 5. Higher SKU volume support parts not in production Source: MSI Copyright 2004 Deloitte Development LLC and Caterpillar Logistics.

6 Service Parts Warehouses Are Different It is not pallets-in, pallets-out It is pallets-in, 1 s-out Need more detailed control of the work performed in the warehouse: kitting, labeling, picking, shipping, cross docking, packaging, etc. Need more detailed control of shipping Complex return logistics and return processing often exists Copyright 2004 Deloitte Development LLC and Caterpillar Logistics.

8 The Reality of China Profile of Chinese aftermarket customers Logistics network Commercial environment Distribution channels Case Study: Heavy Equipment/Machines Copyright 2004 Deloitte Development LLC and Caterpillar Logistics. All rights reserved. 7

9 Current Customer: First Generation Machine Owner 80% private owners and 20% state-owned enterprise (SOE) 30% own one machine only, 30% own two to three units and 40% a fleet Purchasing decision based on price only counterfeit and will fit parts reduce machine life and OEM reputation Run to destruction mentality poor maintenance and limited understanding of total ownership cost Limited leasing due to resale market and credit issues Local insurance companies insist on the cheapest possible repair this helps the grey market Limited service retention at Dealers Relationship buying is key GUANXI is King Copyright 2004 Deloitte Development LLC and Caterpillar Logistics. All rights reserved. 8

10 Current Logistics Network: Inefficient and Unreliable Road Network Roads still primitive Express highways are linking major cities, but still inadequate National trunk highway destined to finish by 2010 Air Network Air routes increasing between major cities, but still largely fragmented Passenger traffic takes priority over cargo Air cargo is replete with inefficiencies Rail Network Rail system is the most extensive and used for bulk shipments (>90%) Lack of automation makes the entire system manual and unreliable Intermodal system is mostly broken or non-existent Copyright 2004 Deloitte Development LLC and Caterpillar Logistics. All rights reserved. 9

11 Current Logistics Network: Inefficient and Unreliable (continued) Shipping Network Barges up the Yangzi, Yellow, and Pearl still taking a large share Limited to commodities Container terminals are being upgraded across the coastal cities Trucking Network Main means of finished-goods transport, but no national network Provincial governments making it tough to be transparent and predictable because of protectionism Road tolls in excess of 20% of total cost of transport Government Regulation Only Chinese companies can distribute across the full range, which leads to cartel pricing High import tax Enforced dual distribution Customs procedures are extremely cumbersome and lack transparency Automation is underway, but bureaucracy prevails Very limited information/visibility. Given unreliable transport, this makes planning very difficult. Copyright 2004 Deloitte Development LLC and Caterpillar Logistics. All rights reserved. 10

12 Commercial Environment Challenges Most foreign OEM s purchase service parts outside of China Higher purchase prices High logistics costs Excessive import tax Distribution constraints for imported versus domestic parts Difficult to source service parts inside China due to supplier capability issues and logistics costs. Typically second and thirdtier suppliers Including transportation and warehousing, Chinese logistics cost is 30% to 40% of sales for manufactured goods while in the western countries, this is kept well under 10% Non-competitive pricing in China enables will-fit suppliers, counterfeit manufacturers and traders to flourish in the grey and black market Copyright 2004 Deloitte Development LLC and Caterpillar Logistics. All rights reserved. 11

13 Current Distribution Channels Grey Market: Genuine parts but not sold through the normal authorized channels Will Fit: Non-genuine parts sold through a third party under different brand names Counterfeit: Non-genuine parts but sold as genuine parts All these supply lines are damaging the authorized dealers ability to manage their customer base Copyright 2004 Deloitte Development LLC and Caterpillar Logistics. All rights reserved. 12

14 Case Example: Heavy Equipment Service Parts Distribution in China Overseas OEM Dealers Customer s Corporation Overseas Grey Market Will-Fit Parts Mfg./Suppliers (Taiwan, Korea) Grey/Black Market (Under-Declaration Value) Traders 40% OEM Parents Genuine Parts Suppliers OEM Factories Grey Market OEM Warehouses Authorized China Dealers by Territories 30% Customers Counterfeit Parts Mfg./Suppliers Grey Market Retailers Copyright 2004 Deloitte Development LLC and Caterpillar Logistics.

17 Local Sourcing Can Restore Parts Profitability Mature Market Immature Market LCC Market Based Price to End User Profit to Dealer Cost of Dealer (import duty, VAT, freight, warehouse, marketing) OEM Price to Dealers Profit to OEM Cost of OEM (raw material, labor, freight, warranty, warehouse, etc.) Profitability to Dealers 9% -14% 15% Profitability to OEM 35% -20% 18% To make the local sourcing option work, you must establish a local value-added logistics center for inspection, painting, kitting, etc. Copyright 2004 Deloitte Development LLC and Caterpillar Logistics.
