Supply Chain Cost-Cutting Strategies: How Top Process Industry Performers Take Radically Different Actions
Overview
Companies in Process Industries (including chemicals, pharmaceuticals, food & beverage, oil & gas, pulp & paper, and health & beauty aides) have had to cope with rising manufacturing and logistics costs over the past few years. To avoid an average 7.96% increase in logistics costs (what the average company has experienced in the past two years), companies should follow the roadmap of Best in Class companies, which have been able to reduce costs or keep them flat via supply chain transformation.
In the face of the steady run up in manufacturing and logistics costs, the old strategies for cost containment no longer have the same punch. Companies in process industries now widely realize that they must restructure their supply chains to take out costs and maintain their customer service edge. Download this paper to read the results of an Aberdeen survey and see why 75% of all respondents have either recently redesigned or are in the process of redesigning their supply chains.
