Cost-Effective Country Sourcing
In today’s interconnected world, geographic boundaries no longer restrict your company’s supplier choices for materials, components, and critical services. Whether sourcing electronics from East Asia or fabricated metals from Latin America, KGM Strategy’s Cost-Effective Country Sourcing taps into the global market to enhance bottom-line performance while improving quality and operational efficiency. With extensive experience and expertise in low-cost sourcing, we offer a balanced approach that combines qualitative and quantitative analysis.
M&A Integration Support
Our pre-merger assessment is a data-driven evaluation to uncover the real potential of supply chain synergies. We analyze data to quantify the benefits of vertical integration and compare potential value against other M&A targets. KGM also examines opportunities for product consolidation and cross-divisional cost reductions. Following our M&A Integration Support, we deploy our proprietary 11 Gate Global Strategic Sourcing Process, which establishes the core improvements needed for sustainable results.
Operational Efficiency in Manufacturing
Manufacturing firms strive to enhance profitability by reducing costs, shortening production cycles, and minimizing waste. Most of our supply chain consulting clients already employ various Lean Manufacturing techniques when we begin working together. We bring added value by refining and optimizing these practices, with a focus on Operational Efficiency in the manufacturing process itself, including upgrades and redesigns of production lines. Our efforts are guided by these core principles:
- Prioritizing customer value
- Eliminating inefficiencies (Muda)
- Streamlining product flow
- Producing only what customers demand
- Ensuring consistent quality execution
