DC Bypass
DC Bypass: A supply chain best practice that expedites time to market by skirting distribution centers altogether. Businesses using DC bypass load products at point of origin, assign shipments by ultimate destination, clear customs in bulk, deconsolidate at ports, and ship directly to retail outlets or customers. As a result, inventory remains continuously in motion. A traditional supply chain requires multiple handoffs to move product from origin to forwarder, through customs to delivery, and to end customers. By contrast, using DC bypass and outsourced logistics providers, furniture manufacturers, for example, can move products from Asia directly to American retailers. With regard to outbound transportation this is also known as "Direct to Store", a practice that occurs when vendors ship goods directly to the retail store instead of to the retailer's distribution center (DC). Synonym Direct to Store
