In January 2022, the Ningjin plant began to promote regional sales, self-production and self-sales model. Mainly for the northeast, Hebei, Shandong region, March is the worst time of the epidemic in the northeast, and the epidemic situation in other regions is also unstable, and the epidemic prevention and control is strict. The two production lines of Ningjin Factory are produced at full speed to ensure delivery.
At the beginning, everything from the order of raw materials, the arrangement of the plan, the reporting of the customer's order, and the shipment of the warehouse are normal, which can smoothly ensure the rapid delivery of the order in the region and send the goods to the customer's warehouse as soon as possible. Until March 11, Texas reported a confirmed case of new crown pneumonia, and many close contacts began to isolate. Ningjin belongs to the directly subordinate counties of Dezhou, and the epidemic prevention and control is immediately strict. The epidemic prevention and control department of Ningjin County immediately notified the factories in the development zone and required them to strictly abide by the epidemic prevention and control regulations. There are epidemic prevention and inspection booths at the junction of each county. Passing vehicles are inspected and released.
In the early days, Ningjin was after all a certain distance from the place where the epidemic was found, and the incoming materials from Texas and the logistics and delivery were quite normal, as long as the 48-hour nucleic acid report and non-medium and high-risk areas were met. The biggest test for us is the transfer of non-self-produced noodles, because externally, the health code of Texas has been starred and belongs to the medium and high-risk areas, so the delivery vehicles of the branch factory can not always find the car, resulting in delayed delivery and affecting the shipment of orders from the Ningjin factory.
In the face of this problem, the factory responds quickly, communicates logistics, and can ensure the pick-up and drop-off of delivery vehicles, smoothly, in order to solve the problem. Even so, the time to transfer the vehicle to the factory is still not in control, the previous normal next day can now arrive the next day, or even the third day to arrive, resulting in the delivery of the car and other goods, finished product warehouse management in order to avoid waiting for the vehicle time is too long, will communicate in advance with the delivery driver, at any time to arrange unloading, even if the goods come at work, will also give priority to unloading in the after-work, in order to be able to minimize the phenomenon of cars and other goods on the next day.
At the end of March, when the epidemic in Texas was about to end, a case of new crown pneumonia was suddenly found in Lingcheng District next door to Ningjin County, and at this time, the epidemic prevention and control team immediately blocked the junction between the two counties. Vehicles traveling to and from Ningjin can only take the high speed, and the inspection is more stringent than ever. Especially Texas Vehicles and Lingcheng District Vehicles and Personnel. As a result, we were directly affected, because the main supplier of raw materials was Texas, which must pass through the lingcheng district next door, and the vehicles that delivered flour were still foreign license plates and field personnel. The production of the factory is directly affected. Not only raw materials, including the allocated finished products, accessories, and packaging can not be delivered on time, which lengthens the arrival cycle.
The factory quickly responded to the management regulations of epidemic prevention and control in Ningjin and communicated solutions. The administrative staff and warehouse supervisor went to the Ningjin Expressway several times to verify the required entry and exit certificates, and finally, the company came forward and went to the management committee of the development zone to issue a certificate and stamp it. Then the warehouse manager carries the company's business license and the company's certificate to pick up and drop off the vehicles that come and go from the company to load and unload the goods, accompany and track the whole process. The Ningjin factory needs 2-3 truckloads of flour a day and irregularly transfers goods to arrive. This increases the workload of the warehouse, first of all, to communicate in advance, confirm the vehicle information, and report in advance. After the arrival of the vehicle, arrange personnel to pick up the car at the highway intersection at any time. Sometimes it is not until 5 a.m. to pick up the car in the morning, and when the car is unloaded, it is sent back to the high-speed port. Sometimes I pick up the car at more than 10 o'clock in the evening, and I have to pick up up to 6 times a day.
The epidemic is the order, and prevention and control is the responsibility. When the epidemic is around, our lovely warehouse managers have achieved on-time delivery, ensuring production, timely delivery, and rapid delivery. (Ningjin Factory Du Min)
