Enlarge supply chain
...and a lot more
Together with our clients we create processes that answer questions which appear in every Supply Chain and which decide about the economy and the success of the company. Questions with a lot of consequences and conflicts. We guide our clients through those processes and help them to make the right decisions.
One of the big goals in Supply Chain Planning is ensuring the highest possible product availabilty while having minimal stock costs. Bringing those colliding target variables in harmony is the main task of the inventory planning. With the help of mathematical algorithms, cost optimized stock quantities are getting calculated for default target availabilities within the Supply Chain.
An optimal purchase planning should be demand driven and cost-conscious. Basis of the planning is the definition of a sustainable purchasing strategy as well as a procurement management. General conditions like optimal purchase quantities, delivery, inventory capacities and the durability should be considered.
With increasingly complex network structures, challenges to get a coordinated and manageable Supply Chain raise. Alternative procurement channels have to be considered carefully while superseded stocks should be avoided.
It is always challenging to build an optimal order when it comes to line occupancy. The on schedule manufacturing has to get harmonized with an optimal machine utilization. Set-up and cleaning times should be reduced to a minimum and waiting times avoided.
Only a glimpse into the future enables the control of the present. Demand planning considers all relevant data sources (e.g. market information, marketing campagnes, product life cycles, mathematical forecasting methods etc.) to anticipate the future sales behaviour of the clients as accurate as possible.
Every client is different and every process has its individual challenges. We have experts for every part of the Supply Chain who analyze processes with all their experience to find the best-fit solution.
Efficient and stable production processes are a huge success factor of Supply Chain Planning. Those require a digital data recording in real-time, high transparency of all relevant information and the possibility to perform uncomplicated and integrated when it comes to adaptions.

Generative AI is changing the way we work and make decisions. But with this technology, there are also questions:
• Can we blindly trust the recommendations of an AI?
• How do we build trust in such systems?
• What is the role of humans in this new reality?
• And what role does good change management play in this?
