Sign up for the free webinar July 19, 2017 at 2pm EST, Epicor CMS -- Automotive Supply Chain ERP software that can help you reduce expedited shipping costs."
Cleveland, Ohio On-time delivery is about more than just maintaining good relationships between suppliers and original equipment manufacturers (OEMs). Failing to deliver on time can be disastrously expensive and put future orders at risk.
If a supplier shuts down an OEM vehicle production line they can be charged $100,000 per hour, and this can affect their supplier rating. This can be the result of many things such as:
Because the OEM line is in peril it means that the supplier will do just about anything to get the parts to the production facility as quickly as possible, says Andrew Robling, principal product manager for manufacturing and supply chain for Epicor Software Corp. At best this means an expedited truck. At worst Ive seen customers hire a helicopter to bring in the parts.
On July 19, 2017, Todays Motor Vehicles will conduct a webinar with Epicor titled Epicor CMS Automotive Supply Chain ERP software that can help you reduce expedited shipping costs. Robling will discuss the challenges of hitting delivery schedules and how a modern enterprise resource planning (ERP) software suite can help.
Robling says one supplier was regularly spending $500,000 per month to expedite shipments an extreme yet representative example of the lengths to which companies will go to protect their supplier ratings.
Please join us for this free webinar to learn how to optimize scheduling to avoid expedited freight charges. An enterprise resource planning (ERP) with built-in Automotive Centric features and controls could virtually eliminate the need to expedite shipments.

The U.S. Supreme Court declined on Monday to review a California law restricting concealed carry permits.
After postponing the order multiple times, the nations highest court rejected a review of Peruta v. California. In the case, gun rights activists argued that a good cause requirement on concealed carry permits is too restrictive.
Justices Clarence Thomas and Neil Gorsuch said the court should have reviewed the appellate ruling. Thomas said the decision not to hear the case "reflects a distressing trend: the treatment of the Second Amendment as a disfavored right."
What is this case about?
At issue in this case is concealed carry and whether a county can define good cause to carry a weapon outside of ones home as strictly as some California counties specifically San Diego do.
Edward Peruta and other gun owners reportedly attempted to obtain concealed carry permits in San Diego County, Calif. However, the sheriffs department which handles permit requests requires a specific good cause to obtain the permits, Fox News previously reported.
That good cause must be more specific than just a general concern for wellbeing; a person must list a precise fear, such as domestic violence or carrying a large amount of money.
What were other rulings?
A three-judge panel on the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled 2-1 in 2014 that the policy stood in violation of the right to self-defense.
However, 11 judges in the same circuit later ruled 7-4 in a new hearing that the restrictions were permissible.
Whats next for this case?
The nations highest court hasnt always been so willing to take up Second Amendment cases, Law Newz reported earlier this month. And this particular case has been rescheduled multiple times.
The high court decided in 2008 that the Constitution guarantees the right to a gun, at least for self-defense at home.
But the justices have refused repeated pleas to spell out the extent of gun rights in the United States, allowing permit restrictions and assault weapons bans to remain in effect in some cities and states.
More than 40 states already broadly allow gun owners to be armed in public.
With the Supreme Court declining to review the case, the California law will remain in place.
The high court also turned away a second case involving guns and the federal law that bars people convicted of crimes from owning guns.

US Supreme Court declines to take up 2nd Amendment case: A look at the California law - Fox News
The Supreme Court on Monday announced it would not hear two key cases surrounding the Second Amendment.
One case centered on Californias concealed-carry law that allows sheriffs to require individuals applying for concealed-carry permits to cite a need for the permit, such as feeling threatened, according to The Washington Post.
The second case dealt with the federal law that bans felons from possessing guns, according toCNN.
In the California case, gun-rights advocacy group the California Rifle and Pistol Association Foundation filed a brief seeking the courts opinion in the case, claiming that the California law could lead to a prohibition on carrying a gun outside the home for any reason.
Justices Clarence Thomas and Neil Gorsuch dissented from the majority, saying the Court should have taken the California case.
The Courts decision to deny certiorari in this case reflects a distressing trend: the treatment of the Second Amendment as a disfavored right, Thomas wrote in his dissent. For those of us who work in marbled halls, guarded constantly by a vigilant and dedicated police force, the guarantees of the Second Amendment might seem antiquated and superfluous. But the Framers made a clear choice: They reserved to all Americans the right to bear arms for self-defense."

Supreme Court declines to hear two Second Amendment cases - The Hill
From Mondays opinion by Justice Clarence Thomas (joined by Justice Neil Gorsuch), dissenting from denial of certiorari in Peruta v. California:
For those of us who work in marbled halls, guarded constantly by a vigilant and dedicated police force, the guarantees of the Second Amendment might seem antiquated and superfluous. But the Framers made a clear choice: They reserved to all Americans the right to bear arms for self-defense. I do not think we should stand by idly while a State denies its citizens that right, particularly when their very lives may depend on it.
Agree with it or disagree, but it strikes me as a powerful articulation of its position. (The other seven justices declined to hear the case, and thus left open the question whether the Second Amendment secures a right of law-abiding adults to carry guns outside the home a subject on which lower courts continue to be split; Thomas and Gorsuch were urging the court to hear the case.)
