Operations Consulting

Finding the right operations consulting

Working with the right operations consulting firm can help a business operate more efficiently, effectively, and profitably. Our supply chain consulting and other types of operations consulting have delivered billions of dollars in sustainable operations improvements for our clients, and our working capital management solutions have helped clients free up billions of dollars in improved cash flow. When making the important decision about which operations consulting agency to work with, here are a few criteria to consider:

• Experience. Length of experience of course, but also depth and diversity — has the operations consulting firm worked closely with a wide range of organizations, so that they can bring broad perspective to bear on your operational issues?
• Breadth of expertise. Can the operations consulting agency be an effective partner across all areas of your operations?
• Evidence. What is the empirical basis of the advice that the operations consulting group will be providing you? How will you know that their advice will be sound?
• Measurable results. Will the operations consulting firm deliver tangible, measurable results for your organization?
• Global perspective. Today’s business operations are global. Tomorrow’s will be even more so. To thrive in this environment, you’ll need an operations consulting partner with demonstrated global reach and expertise.
