occurred, over the past ten years no adjustments had been made on scrap factor. It
was also found that in SAP the BOM weights (from incorrect spreadsheet) that
Scheduling was using did not match what the floor was filling to; which was Target
weight (label claim). Therefore, all of these problems contributed to the excess soap
problem, a new process needed to be established that could be controlled while
also, updating more than 4,200 BOM's in SAP. Some the efforts are listed below:
1. Found that the process for determining BOM weights was undocumented and not
a consistent process, a process map was created of the current state in Jan. 2017
2. Collected and tracked data from numerous Purell runs to determine what was
contributing to excess Purell for baseline data. They then developed a pilot to
convert BOM weights to Target weight (label claim) that replicated the ECR process
for filling in production; trialed pilot process on Purell Gel 9670-630 and monitored
through Feb 2017.
3. The pilot process needed to be tweaked for improved accuracy and efficiency for
changing 60 BOM's in SAP. A Changemaster was initiated through the ECR
process to test and confirm that LSMW (Legacy System Migration Workbench) was
a viable option to update BOM weights in SAP for Aloe (9670-633); this was done to
mirror manual process of first pilot and to determine if this process reduced time
when updating the data and improved accuracy - March 2017.
4. Created and implemented a process in May 2017, with the Global ECR template
for both HALB and FGs with an each count field and the BOM calculation field on
front cover sheet of ECR that is protected to ensure accuracy and auto-calculated
BOM weights based upon label claim.
5. A new Business Process for establishing BOM Weights and Scrap Factors for
formula SKUs was developed for implementation, with approval for ownership from
Change Management, Quality Assurance, SC Scheduling, SC Finance and S&OP.
When an incorrect scrap factor is noted at the SKU level SC Finance will be notified
for review and update as needed, this was approved in August 2017.
