Manufacturing and Distribution
DISCOVERING OPPORTUNITIES
Inside every manufacturing business are opportunities for change that can dramatically improve the bottom line. Our job is to help you find those opportunities as quickly as possible.
Each expert in our specialty group has walked in your shoes. We've owned our own businesses, and helped dozens of others make strategic decisions that enhanced business success. We understand the pressures you are under, and work with a sense of urgency to help you realize new revenue streams quickly.
WE TAKE A SYSTEMATIC APPROACH:
Starting from a position of mutual trust and respect, we form a client/consultant team that works together to determine what aspects of your business offer the best potential for improvement. With your assistance, we make a thorough, honest assessment of those areas--your customers, products, processes and/or business strategies. After carefully evaluating the information gathered, we present customized recommendations developed with your specific financial goals and objectives in mind.
UNIQUE SERVICES, REAL SOLUTIONS
Our group offers a wide range of services addressing operations, special projects, finance and distribution, but clients say three offerings set us apart:
Customer Profitability Assessment
You are in business to make a profit. We can help you identify the 10-20 percent of customers who are not contributing and, who are, in fact, draining your resources. By releasing them to better-suited suppliers, you'll be able to refocus your energies on the customers truly contributing to your company's health.
Product Costing
Learning exactly what it costs to make each product presents a similar opportunity to alter or cease efforts that are underproducing. Whether you discover cost savings in production, or decide to discontinue unprofitable items, your bottom line improves.
Business Process Re-engineering
This experience-based assessment looks at any process from the office to the shop to find opportunities for improving efficiency and reducing costs. Since most of our clients use Clark, Schaefer, Hackett & Co. for accounting as well, we have the advantage of a whole-company perspective. The suggestions resulting from our assessment have a relevance and immediacy outsiders can't provide.
CASE IN POINT
A client was losing contracts because the turn time was too slow. We developed a system that gave the client the flexibility to reassign tasks based on the importance of the contracts. This improved turnaround immediately and they started winning more contracts - practically overnight.
