French term or phrase: Flux allotis

Les flux allotis s'inscrivent dans une démarche ECR visant à réduire les stocks sur la chaîne d'approvisionnement. Cela consiste pour le distributeur à effectuer une commande précisant les besoins des magasins et dès lors, pour le fournisseur à préparer les unités d'expédition ou les colis à destination de ces magasins.

L'intérêt réside notamment pour le fournisseur dans la livraison en un seul point et dans la connaissance des besoins des magasins ; pour le distributeur, la préparation dans le centre de distribution et le stockage sont évités.

Les flux allotis sont particulièrement adaptés aux produits ultra frais, comme la boucherie ou la volaille, mais également au bazar.

Le groupe Flux allotis définit les messages propres à cette pratique, la commande allotie et l'avis d'expédition alloti. Il établit également une recommandation pour les étiquettes logistiques qui s'appliquent dans ce cas.
