SUPPLY CHAIN CHALLENGES
We help supply chain executives to achieve step-change improvements to supply chain (eg. Sales & Operations Planning, Integrated Business Planning) processes. More specifically, we help those in global manufacturers to:
-
-
- Resolve critical capability gaps in these processes
- Reduce the cost of these processes by as much as 50%
- Self-fund the investment in these processes
- Improve profits by up to 5% of sales
- Resolve critical capability gaps in these processes
-
These improvement opportunities exist because traditional supply chain processes and software don’t meet the needs of global manufacturers. While they balance supply and demand, they don’t support meaningful improvement to:
-
-
- Executive engagement in a profit-based process that is always reconciled to financials
- Accountability for, and governance of, segment profits, inventory levels and custom service
- Scenario planning that simultaneously resolves financial and operational risk, while optimizing cash flow
- Globally achieving the above across multiple functions, business units and legal entities
-
Our solution recognizes one reality: these operational challenges are highly interconnected with strategic and financial (View) ones. It resolves them by providing incremental capabilities that support mature forms of strategic, financial and operational integration. Further details outlining our perspectives can be found in the following two articles, along with the video provided below about Integrated Business Planning:
