Industries
Get to know our consulting services in various industrial sectors.
Retail Trade
Our extensive and long-standing experience in Optimise supply chains and purchasing to drive profitability! Retail's direct contact with consumers sets it apart from other industries that focus primarily on production and distribution.
Compared to industries with longer product lifecycles, retail requires particular flexibility and adaptability. Efficient processes, accurate assortment planning, agile category management and competitive sourcing are key to responding to changing customer needs.
As an experienced retail consultancy, we have the expertise to help you meet these challenges.
With over 20 years' experience working with a wide range of international brands and retailers, we offer in-depth expertise in both the food and non-food sectors - from branded to private label.
Consumer Goods
With extensive experience in cost reduction programmes for both indirect and direct requirements, we can help both leading private label and branded manufacturers to significantly reduce their procurement costs.
We improve your competitiveness by applying both commercial and technical approaches tailored to the specific demand segment.
To meet the challenges of the future, we help to optimise purchasing and supply chain management processes.
In doing so, we not only implement new processes that are harmonised across departments, but also use sustainable content to ensure future-proof, smooth-running processes.
Service Company
High transparency and rapidly changing cut-throat competition are having a major impact on the market for services, making competitive advantages increasingly short-lived.
When it comes to the procurement of so-called intangible services, there is hardly any difference today to the procurement of traditional industrial products.
The fact that purchasing sovereignty in service companies often lies with the specialist departments shows that these purchasing processes are not always organised centrally.
Cross-departmental purchasing is inefficient and costly. In addition to personnel costs, the cost structure itself is characterised by classic material and overhead costs (IT, marketing, energy, etc.).
Transport / Logistics
Logistics and infrastructure companies face the challenge of efficiently organising highly complex supply chains and networks.
Coordinating a large number of partners, including suppliers, service providers and customers, requires not only precise planning, but also digital tools to automate and monitor processes.
Purchasing has a key role to play as the interface between the various players. It is responsible for selecting the best partners, negotiating contracts and ensuring the timely delivery of goods and services.
In addition, procurement must work closely with other departments to share information in real time, identify bottlenecks and develop solutions.
Machines / Industrial engineering
Purchasing in the engineering industry has taken on a central role in global competition. As globalisation continues, our extensive industry knowledge and qualified staff make us a reliable partner.
During the course of a project, we will work with you to realise undiscovered profit potential in order to increase your profit margins and innovation.
Measures such as product cost optimisation, value driver analysis, global supplier relationship development and expansion, negotiations, process optimisation, sourcing collaborations and waste elimination help to increase the value contribution of purchasing.
