Too much to cope with?

Trying to get a new product to market?

Don't have time to fix problems that would make your job easier because you're too busy trying to keep the production line going?

Often supply management or purchasing teams are severely hampered by problems that will not get fixed without dedicated resources. 

 

We offer quality assistance with short term projects.

Contracts Review/Negotiations

Every one needs a contract -- see my article.  I can help with contract templates, negotiation or review.

 

E-procurement

Want to start an e-procurement project and need help selecting the right software or developing processes?  Or just need someone with experience?

 

New Product Launch

Having difficulty finding parts for your launch date?  Or are costs a problem?

 

Inventory Reduction

We haven't seen an inventory problem we can't solve.  We challenge you to bring us one.

 

Warehouse Logistics

Need help setting up the logistics for a smooth flow from dock to manufacturing and back out the door?

 

Reverse Auctions

No, it's not eBay.  Reverse auctions can lead to very low prices or disasters.  We'll be glad to make sure you end up with the best prices.

Other Examples

Problem   Short Term Project

1.  Production Shortages because parts are not on the bills of materials

2.  Inventory high because it contains significant amounts of obsolete material

3.  Major new product is planned, but cost estimates are too high

  

1.  Review bills of material for accuracy, or set up an automated reorder system for infrequently purchased items

2. Catalog and sell off obsolete material at highest possible value

3.  Identify lower cost sources of supply or conduct a reverse auction for cost drivers.
