Building & construction supplies consultancy
With the severe economic downtown, manufactures and suppliers of building and construction materials and systems are operating in one of the hardest hit industrial sectors.
With new house starts plummeting by around 75% over the past year, volumes, revenues and profits have been severely hit.
To meet the challenge of reduced volumes - different ordering patterns and potential changes to the customer base – it is important to carefully re-examine supply chain infrastructures, especially warehousing and distribution in order to drive out spare capacity whilst at the same time ensuring distribution networks can respond effectively to changing customer requirements.
This is not easy to achieve as organisations are frequently tied into fixed assets or third party contracts. The Consultancy Company can help by exploring with you innovative ways to restructure and optimise your operations.
We combine innovation with a practical and pragmatic approach and, through the use of our distribution and inventory modelling tools, are able to clearly demonstrate the benefits of proposed changes.
