  • Supply Chain Optimization
Looking back at more than 500+ supply chain-related projects we have completed globally, across industries, we see three areas that process industries consistently focus on:
  1. Cost Reduction
  2. Inventory Optimization
  3. Plant Reliability
The three are so intertwined, that it is impossible to address any one of them without considering the links to the other two. In many cases, clients even seem to believe that you can achieve only two of the three – which we don’t agree with! We firmly believe that all three are very much achievable, if organizations look at the holistic picture. With large organizations, teams tend to work in silos, leading to discussions being around which team’s perspective is ‘right’ vs. ‘wrong’. That is often when we come in as a catalyst to help organizations understand the real areas they can focus on to achieve objectives. If we look forward, there is no doubt that the exact same three topics will continue to be a top priority in the minds of senior executives. Significant investments are being made by organizations into tools, technology and processes, but in many cases, the ROI becomes hazy as they go forward. While supply chain managed services helps to keep businesses operating at its most optimal level, Supply chain network optimization is the key to keeping track of inventory and optimizing the supply chain Supply chain vendor management is the process that enables an organization to take correct steps for controlling cost, decreasing potential risks related to vendors, ensuring best service deliverability and deriving value from vendors in the long-run.

Procurement cost reduction

At any given time today there could be an industry that is doing well or doing badly, due to one of all the several reasons – lower demand, innovation in a competing area, government policies…, and most executives will tell you that their key challenge is managing ‘costs’ across the supply chain. Procurement function has not moved much in the years, barring – volume discounts, and negotiating low cost contracts.

Supplier Rationalization

Typically, supplier rationalization would mean, to pick the correct suppliers and have the right number as well. However, in the name of securing strategic relationships, one often resorts to shrinking the supply base. At OptimizeMRO we know better that supplier rationalization also includes – changing the supplier mix, maybe even increase it sometimes. And reduce them too – based on objectives set by the organization, or even a need to innovate, test them, or a simple hunch.

Spend Analytics

Spend analysis is a catalyst that drives business decisions, as it has led to insightful findings and sustained savings for organizations. However, many times organizations have not realized the desired results with spend analysis, primarily because the organization – has failed to adhere to set standards, the input data is incorrect, and incorrectly classified, and this also results in not having control of the complete spend.
