Reaching flexibility, cost control and real added value for your customers through postponement, modularity and operational excellence.
Connect
Start from the customer
Our approach starts from "where the customer comes in": From which point in your value chain, your products or services become customer specific.
The elements in your value chain, before this point need to be connected and focus is on efficiency and standardization.
Once your product or service passes this point, the connection changes between elements and the focus is on flexibility and customization.
Balance
Product design integration and supply base archetypes
The level or required customization sets the standard for how to balance the functions (e.g. balance product design with operations design). Doing this well, it can bring you increased customer value add through flexibility, delivery reliability and cost control
- Example: If your customer asks for different options in the product or service, but your operations set up is focused on mass production, maybe the delivery time is short (due to stocks), but it will be an expensive operation to run, with many change-overs, high stock levels and the risk of obsolete stocks
Connection, one focus and balance are key!
Optimize
Design for Operational Excellence
Now everything is connected and the blue print for a balanced value chain is in place, we start to improve all elements in order to get the maximum out of your value chain: Customer value add, cost control, waste reduction, the right level of flexibility and many more.
In order to optimize, we have a huge scala of tools to support you for each and every improvement opportunity.
