General Description

This is one of the main KPI that all GBUs want to follow nowadays. It's also very tricky because there is a multitude of way to calculate it.
In this dashboard we highlight 6 indicators: 3 for Customer delivered and 3 for Departure plant.
The calculation is and remains the same for all the indicators and the tolerances days are now standardized by Transport Mode only for all GBUs.
OTIF-Customer (Delivered) :
This KPI measures our capacity to deliver our customers at destination at the right time, with the right quantity. It evaluates Customer satisfaction.
The result of this KPI can be both related to internal and external factors.
OTIF-Departure Plant:
This KPI measures our capacity to make the products available at departure location at the right time, with the right quantity. It evaluates our ability to deliver according to customer requirements. The result of this KPI is only related to internal reasons (eg: product not available)
Exception: if the carrier is 2 days late, the actual Good Issue Date will also be delayed even if the product is available.


Available metrics:
% OTIF Customer delivered - Requested , 1st Confirmed  &  Last Confirmed dates
% OTIF Departure plant - Requested , 1 st  Confirmed  &  Last Confirmed dates
Number of OTIF Order Lines
Number of NON-OTIF Order Lines
Number of OTIF Order Lines with a Redress code from NON OTIF to OTIF
Number of OTIF Order Lines with a Redress code from OTIF to NON OTIF
Number of OTIF Order Lines with an Actual Delivery date
Visibility of redress codes
Detail about NON-OTIF order lines and the reason codes behind
Granularity:  Order Lines
Classification:
  • OTIF & NON OTIF
  • NON OTIF includes NOT ON TIME / NOT IN FULL / NOT ON TIME & NOT IN FULL
New reference date to distribute the orderlines: the OTIF reference month (no change in the calculation)
This field is recalculated on a daily basis on the following criteria:
  • If quantity is confirmed but not yet issued (no Actual GI date) AND First ATP GI < current day --> First ATP GI date month
  • If already issued (Actual GI date available) → earliest date between Actual GI date and First ATP GI date

As a consequence, you are now also seeing orders that were not shipped yet, because their 1st ATP GI date is past.
Important: to allow early visibility on “On Time” indicators, both “In Full” indicators are forced to “1” (In Full) until the Delivery Actual GI date is done.
Why a new OTIF model?
From a “Solvay-centric” to a customer-centric OTIF
With the former OTIF model, the orderlines were displayed according to Actual GI date. In case we were late, we were waiting for the effective shipment to trigger our Not-On Time (OT) performance, while our customers knew we were Not-OT since the 1st Promised date.
With the new OTIF model, the orderlines are distributed according to the earliest date between the 1st ATP GI and the Actual GI date. This way, we know we are Not-OT at the same time as our customers.

OTIF Customer - Requested: we compare the Achieved Delivery date(c) and the the Requested Delivery date (d) + we compare the requested quantity and the delivered quantity
OTIF Customer - 1st Confirmed: we compare the Achieved Delivery date(c) and the 1st confirmed Delivery date (d) + we compare the confirmed quantity and the delivered quantity
OTIF Customer - Last Confirmed: we compare the Achieved Delivery date(c) and the Last confirmed Delivery date (d) + we compare the confirmed quantity and the delivered quantity 
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
OTIF Departure Plant - Requested: we compare the Achieved shipment date (a) and the Requested GI date (b) + we compare the requested quantity and the delivered quantity
OTIF Departure Plant - 1st Confirmed: we compare the Achieved shipment date (a) and the 1st confirmed GI date (b) + we compare the confirmed quantity and the delivered quantity
OTIF Departure Plant - Last confirmed: we compare the Achieved shipment date (a) and the Last confirmed GI date (b) + we compare the confirmed quantity and the delivered quantity 
 
- 1st ATP GI date = 1st ATP date - Route Transit Time
- Last ATP GI date = Last ATP date - Route Transit Time
 
(a) Achieved shipment date:
Achieved Shipment Date: actual GI date (or equivalent) - detailed definition here
For “PICK UP” transportation mode : Last transfer order confirmation date for the order line if it is a date and Actual Good Issue date for the order line if there is no transfer order (should normally never be in RCS).
For other transportation mode: The last “Actual Good Issue” date
(b) Requested/1st Confirmed/Last Confirmed Good Issue date:
  • Requested GI date = Requested Delivery date (d) – standard transit time of the route
  • First Confirmed GI date = 1st Confirmed Delivery date (d) – standard transit time of the route
  • Last Confirmed GI date = Last Confirmed Delivery date (d) – standard transit time of the route
For Specialty Polymers:
  • Requested GI date = Requested Delivery date (at the order header level in SAP)
  • 1st confirmed delivery date = 1st committed delivery date (in SAP, see "Additional Data B tab at the orderline level)
  • Last confirmed delivery  date = Delivery date (at the orderline level in SAP - see the Tab Schedule Lines)
(c) Achieved delivery date:
Achieved Delivery Date: actual or estimated delivery date at customer side - detailed definition here
For “PICK UP” transportation mode : Last transfer order confirmation date of the order line if it is a date and Last Good Issue date of the order line if there is no transfer order (should normally never be in RCS).
For other transportation mode: The last “Actual Shipment end” if it exists, else the last “Planned shipment end” (automatically filled in at planning step of shipment, using planned shipment completion + transit time from the SAP ROUTE or updated manually at shipment completion) if it exists and else the last “Actual Good Issue” date (normally should not happen).


Tolerances:

For quantity:
For In Full tolerances, if there is a tolerance defined in the order then we consider it, ie : 5%, 10% even 20%.
Else it's +/- 0%.  
Warning: For some GBUs this is one of the main causes to be NON OTIF on the reporting, even if they were On Time
For time:   standardized by transport modes

Reprocessing root causes ( from NON OTIF to OTIF)
In cases of Non OTIF due to time issues, front Office and Back Office can use reason codes: 740, 745, 750 to force the order line status to On Time.
Reprocessing root causes ( from OTIF to NON OTIF)
 In cases of OTIF that suppose not to be due to time issues, front Office and Back Office can use reason codes: 755 to force the order line status to Non OTIF.

For operational purposes, please open the global sales query and do the following filter to extract the same info that Global SC dashboard. This query will bring to you Sales orders and Replenishment orders. Thus please follow the next steps:

  • Filter on document type: for sales all except NB & UB, for replenishment only NB & UB. 
  • Filter on Intra-GBU flag, because sometimes you can have intra flows in type of orders other than NB & UB
    => Those     filters are set up by default in the OTIF pages but you can remove in the "SHOW FILTERS" box if you want


  • To check the OTIF
    • Filter on OTD for On time delivered if you're looking for KPI at customer delivered (OTDCR/OTDFC/OTDLC)
    • Filter on OTS for On time shipment if you're looking for KPI at departure plant (OTSCR/OTSFC/OTSLC)
    • Filter on In full requested = 1, for requested KPI
    • Filter on in full confirmed =1, for confirmed KPI
       
  • To check the NON-ON TIME
    • Filter on LATE & EARLY in the column of your KPI (OTDCR/OTDFC/OTDLC or OTSCR/OTSFC/OTSLC)
    • Filter on In full requested = 1, for requested KPI
    • Filter on in full confirmed =1, for confirmed KPI

  • To check NON-IN FULL
    • Filter on OTD for On time delivered if you're looking for KPI at customer delivered (OTDCR/OTDFC/OTDLC)
    • Filter on OTS for On time shipment if you're looking for KPI at departure plant (OTSCR/OTSFC/OTSLC)
    • Filter on In full requested = 0, for requested KPI
    • Filter on in full confirmed =0, for confirmed KPI
       
  • To check NON-ON TIME & NON-IN FULL
    • Filter on LATE & EARLY in the column of your KPI (OTDCR/OTDFC/OTDLC or OTSCR/OTSFC/OTSLC)
    • Filter on In full requested = 0, for requested KPI
    • Filter on in full confirmed =0, for confirmed KPI

Important note: now that the new OTIF reference month allows to display orderlines that haven't been shipped yet, the In Full result is forced to 1 until they have an Actual Goods Issue date.
