Example Client Projects

Supply Chain

Could our client build a new manufacturing and distribution facility and generate ROI in excess of corporate requirements?  Using forecasts for new products in the development pipeline, we performed a financial analysis to determine total start-up costs, product manufacturing costs and break even timeframe vs. alternatives.  We worked with our client to develop a business case indicating the significant NPV for senior leadership.

Finance

How does a global company get visibility to over $300M of R&D spend across all business units, many of which use their own processes and systems?  We worked with our client to develop a roadmap of process and system updates to standardize project budgeting, finance and reporting.  The solution automated manual processes, allowed detailed financial analysis and drove global accountability.

 

Human Capital

How does a company accurately determine if it has the required resources to take on new projects?  We developed a complex resource demand and supply model to prioritize current and potential new projects.  Capacities of resources in specific skill areas were consumed as projects were added, and deficiencies in specific skills became apparent.  Provided visibility to hire the needed skills and/or add, defer or cancel projects.
