Our vision
Our vision is a world where scarce resources are applied optimally in the most effective, efficient, economical and sustainable way towards a better future for all. We believe supply chain optimisation is a key component in the journey towards the achievement of this vision.
Our mission
Our mission is to help businesses optimise end-to-end supply chain performance. Every day we want to help our valued customers focus on, evaluate, and optimise the key drivers of performance in their supply chains. We want to help our customers zoom in on the best opportunities that will provide the most business value and truly support them in their journeys towards optimised supply chain performance.
Our service delivery strategy
Our strengths
- Deep operational understanding and experience in day-to-day supply chain realities, variability and complexity
- Ability to think strategically and tactically across the end-to-end supply chain
- Expertise in the application of supply chain technology and supply chain advanced modelling, optimisation and analytics tools
- Driven to work collaboratively and in partnership with you and your team towards unlocking the inherent potential within your supply chain
Our approach is underpinned by solid end-to-end supply chain business optimisation expertise
Our approach is underpinned by solid supply chain business optimisation expertise, a deep understanding of the complexity and integrated nature of supply chain eco-systems, and supported by powerful analytics and modelling capabilities to evaluate and optimise complex opportunities. This ensures a holistic perspective is always maintained across key drivers of supply chain performance including supply chain policies, processes and org structures, supply chain technology and physical supply chain infrastructure. With such a perspective optimisation is truly holistic and beneficial to the end-to-end supply chain and to the business in its entirety as opposed to sub-optimal where benefits are achieved in some sub-sections of the supply chain at the expense of others.
Supply chain optimisation is a key enabler of optimised business performance
Supply chain optimisation in its broadest sense includes all processes and approaches to optimise supply chain performance.
- Restructuring
- Mergers or acquisitions
- Optimising the physical supply chain network
- Implementing strategic technology interventions
- Spend optimisation
- Sales & Operations Planning
- Inventory Optimisation
- Warehouse process improvements
- Improved transportation routing and scheduling
- The application of Lean techniques across the supply chain
Optimisation is never-ending journey as supply chains need to continuously change and evolve over time to align with and adapt to ever changing internal and external dynamics. As a result of these dynamics, there are always opportunities to further optimise or improve specific areas of the supply chain.
Supply chain performance is directly linked to business performance. If supply chains are not performing and not continuously optimised, business performance suffers. This is illustrated by multiple industry examples where supply chain failures have caused significant business reputational and financial damage. Conversely, a well-functioning, optimised supply chain can be a true competitive edge for a business as illustrated by examples such as Amazon and many others where superior supply chain performance has opened up new markets and added significant shareholder value to businesses.​Find the value in your supply chain
We help you find the opportunities in your end-to-end supply chain, define alternative strategies to convert these opportunities into tangible business value, test these strategies in a risk-free environment using powerful analytical tools to remove the guesswork from your decision making and define the pathway or journey to convert selected strategies into actual bottom-line business value.
This approach helps you to optimise supply chain performance parameters such as customers service, throughput, inventory and supply chain cost; reduce your carbon footprint and supply chain risk; and improve sustainability and shareholder value
