Supply Chain Management

A structured Supply Chain Managment model generates a competitive advantage that encourages companies to achieve more with less.
Efficient planning and management of supply chains has become a highly complex and vital element to a company’s success. However, global and interdependent nature has also become a vulnerability to a wide range of risks.

In an increasingly competitive environment, a company’s supply chain must be a tool for growth and strengthening businesses, helping them to create competitive advantages to make their products reach the market faster and cheaper than the competition.

Today’s global tendency to obtain a more efficient supply chain greatly complicates and increments the risk associated to those changes. The margin of error grows smaller over time therefore a supply chain system is only as strong as its weakest link.

Due to this complexity companies tend to have problems with the design and implementation of these systems. To implement correctly there are a series of activities that have to be taken into account, one of the most important is the following: To assign and adapt employees to their right job position with the least cost allocated to it.

In Plexus we help our clients develop and implement supply chain systems focused mainly on efficiency. These systems are based on elements like Integral System Management , lean procurement and distribution systems, continuous improvement, Service level agreements, TPI (Third Party Intermediary) etc. Due to the complexity of these systems, when implemented, they push the use of resources to the maximum and also increase competitive efficiency. A Supply Chain system helps with risk control and also opens the door for complex projects and larger production demands which expand the business greatly.

Customer Experience

An excellent service creates a satisfying experience that builds customer loyalty, taking the organizations that achieve customer loyalty to become the top-of-mind within your industry.
Customer experience has become one of the most important competitive advantages for companies that have focused efforts on generating excellence in service, particularly in those sectors where the customer has become more demanding and the price is not necessarily the differentiating factor.
Organizations need to understand that consumer habits and preferences change constantly, every day demanding better and faster service. This coupled with the intense local and international competition, forcing companies to generate and implement strategies that generate highly satisfactory service experience for their customers. However, sometimes an incorrect identification of the elements that a customer consider as a valuable efforts lead to unproductive investments that were meant to generate greater satisfaction and loyalty.

The challenge is to achieve high efficiency in processes that are subject to human error, material defects and sometimes uncontrollable conditions.

Lean Methodologies

Lean methodology has recently become one of the most pervasive trends in corporate culture, giving those who adopt a true orientation to the generation of value to the customer, achieving better productivity ratios, efficiency and profitability.

Despite being born as a methodology for industrial application, the Lean philosophy is applicable in many cases, when a deep understanding of its foundations is achieved.

Its basic principles are the elimination of all activities in the process that does not add value to the final product or service, but its implementation is not easy without proper guidance and methodological basis. This can become a process that rather than promoting organizational culture enter into a traumatic process that does not generate lasting benefits for the organization.

The enormous challenge presented implementing a Lean culture into an organization is primarily to establish the basis of Lean methodology in relation to what they mean for your industry and business in particular. However, the redesign, communication, implementation and monitoring of the processes needed to achieve true transformation in the corporate culture is something that few companies are prepared to do, given the inertia of the operation and “blindness Workshop” that it causes. In Plexus we have a group of experts in transforming organizational culture, making background implementation in the culture of the organization, significantly increasing customer value generation, reducing losses and waste and increasing significantly the profitability of business.
We are specialists in the successful implementation of Lean principles in our client’s organizations, helping them to develop and implement effective mechanisms and processes required to achieve the desired and required organizational transformation for a change in culture and approach of its business.
