In our project, we will focus on helping XXX to do analysis about the price of the materials in their product BOM (bill of materials), which allows them to make better decisions when purchasing raw materials. This can create higher profit to their business through saving cost, and provide better service to customers.
The data we can get from XXX includes: a list of materials with their prices, the company vendor information and the relationship between each plant and distribution center. XXX APAC has many plants and distribution centres all over the Asia. Therefore from the data, we can see the shipment flow of materials through mapping the plants and the distribution centers.
To help XXX better understand their data, first thing we will do is to use some data visualization tools to visualize the shipment relationship between each plants and distribution centres. Then we will compare the shipment in different areas in details. Ideally, we would like to identify some of the factors contributing to the variance of the material’s price and the shipment price.
