Supply Chain Design

To leverage its full potential, the supply chain needs to be designed in a truly end-to-end manner – spanning from suppliers to distribution, segmented, adaptive, and dynamic, and with a clear view on total cost and profitability.

Adaptive supply chain design is key to unlock competitive advantage

Today’s global marketplace is changing. The base of competition has moved from products to solutions and end-to-end supply chains. But companies are struggling to design adaptive supply chains to keep up. While they have often widely exploited operational improvement, 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.
