The use of analytics enables a new quality of value chain and network design: truly end-to-end spanning from suppliers to distribution, segmented, adaptive and dynamic, and with a clear view on total cost and profitability.
Adaptive value chain design is key to unlocking competitive advantage
Today’s global marketplace is ever-changing. Competition has moved from products to solutions and end-to-end value chains. But companies are struggling to design adaptive value chains to keep up. While operational improvement has been widely exploited, the need for optimal strategic design and continuous adjustment of supply networks is more significant than ever. Companies need to move to a multi-dimensional approach to network design to achieve the required levels of service, cost, risk, flexibility, and innovation.
