Manufacturing
Manufacturers today face the challenge of having to reduce operational costs and maximise efficiency. In parallel, manufacturers must also be able to satisfy current customer requirements, whilst maintaining the foresight to predict future customer needs.
The cost-efficiency challenge is highlighted by Australia’s high cost of skilled labour, when compared to the lower cost of imports. It becomes essential that the organisation is able to plan effectively, then be able to execute that plan, with a high degree of accuracy and flexibility.
Sales & Operations Planning (S&OP) is a well-known methodology to ensure that all critical parts of the Supply Chain, from Marketing & Sales to Management & Manufacturing are aligned and working as a cohesive group. With a proper S&OP environment established, organisations are able to not only gain stability within the short-term, but develop and work towards a long-term strategic vision.
GAINS is able to assist in ensuring that all S&OP processes are effective and efficient, and able to deliver to business requirements both now and into the future. Not only does the GAINS team have the capability to refresh or implement these processes, we can assist with the re-alignment of KPIs, functional focus and collaboration and the standardisation of policies and instructions.
In the manufacturing sector, we've worked with organisations to optimise their inventory management.
