client_success Helping Gerber to streamline their supply chain operations to combat lower costs from low cost country sourcing

Market pressures and low cost country sourcing meant that Gerber was recognizing the need to improve processes and cut costs. They knew that some of their production lines were inefficient but because the lack of activity based costing and accurate inventory control they were finding it difficult to identify exactly which product lines should be targeted for change. The challenge was to prioritize which areas to tackle first to bring the largest and most sustainable benefit. There were considerable issues to overcome, first in colelcting the information that could model there current processes more accurately and secondly to create change where many of the procedures were systemic.
