Supply Chain Optimisation

Supply Chain Consultant, manufacturingAn organisation's supply chain is fundamental to its business performance. If the right items cannot be delivered to the right place at the right time, customers are left frustrated and operating costs are increased.

We help clients improve the whole supply chain or elements within it to maximise performance and take out costs. Our consultants are able to bring a wealth of experience and expertise to bear on:

Our clients are major manufacturing and distribution companies across a range of industry sectors. We also work directly with a number of third party providers.

Our credibility stems from the time that our consultants have spent at the coal face, running businesses and combining that experience with consultancy expertise. Their knowledge and skills enable us to provide a range of pragmatic, results-focused advice and solutions.

Lean Thinking

Much of our work is underpinned by a lean thinking approach to solving problems, delivering products and services, whether in manufacturing, distribution or office functions. Based on our consultants' expertise in a number of industries, we focus on supporting clients to analyse and redesign systems using the full range of Lean and Six Sigma approaches. In order to achieve sustainable continuous improvements, we look to change mindsets and behaviour as well as introducing tools and techniques.

Project Management

No project is completed successfully without expert and experienced project management. Our consultants use our own, experience-driven project management methodology, ProAct © , to manage assignments as well as a product in its own right. Whichever route is taken, clients know that projects will be delivered on time, on cost and with the required outcomes.
