...each RDC [Regional Distribution Center] has a unit that does nothing but work with other RDCs looking for goods; and the same goods are moved and handled more times than good sense would dictate. The RDCs and CDC [Central Distribution Center] are all doing their jobs, but the overall system just doesn't work.

CONT

[...] dans chaque CDR [Centre de Distribution Regional], une équipe se consacre uniquement à la recherche de marchandises auprès des autres CDR, et les mêmes produits sont manipulés et déplacés plus de fois que le bon sens ne le voudrait. Les CDR et le CDC [Centre de Distribution Central] font leur travail, mais le système dans son ensemble fonctionne mal.
