Bringing more cohesion to the supply chain
Our client is a major service provider for the electronics industry, designing and manufacturing electronic circuits for leading OEMs.
Their business expanded to include operations in 29 countries and was growing to the point of risking unforeseen additional costs and disorganization if they couldn’t gain control over the fragmented inbound flow in their supply chain, and were unable to improve shipment traceability.
Our Client's Business Challenges
Involved in different vertical sectors including consumer goods, enterprise, and healthcare, this client operates across a total of 100 geographically dispersed companies. The challenge was to create cohesion between all the centers while maintaining focus on the specific activities of each client. Additionally, it was necessary to achieve cost reductions across all modes of transport, while simultaneously improving service—unlike previous providers who were selected solely based on price.
A Transformation StoryOur Key Actions to Meet Our Client's Expectations:
We devised and implemented a coherent strategic plan for 2019-2020 to cover the air and sea freight sectors of FCL and LCL, with visibility across the entire system and communicating the same message locally and regionally.
We were able to leverage our price competitiveness to source raw materials, reduce the supplier base, and simplify the supply chain. We also suggested using additional transportation modes to achieve a more synergistic solution between origin and destination.
