Retail Retail businesses all over the world are struggling on two fronts- global share of the market and optimization of their supply chain. As markets like India, China, and Brazil represent the next growth for retail businesses, they are faced with the demons of their current supply chain and lack of understanding of global economies. With experience in over 20 countries our experts understand global markets. We understand the value chain of a retail business. It doesn’t matter if it’s based in London and trying to get a share of the market in Mumbai. We know which levers work and which levers don’t.
Success Story
Point of Pain
One of the most successful retail businesses in the U.S. wanted to expand their global footprint by creating a nimble global supply chain. Their infrastructure, business processes and organizational dynamics would not support or scale to this vision. They partnered with Forward Hindsight to use the 3DE model to bring third dimension thinking to their current-state.
Solution
Using our 3DE toolbox our team first analyzed the risk and exposure to the current-state. Then we helped create a detailed design of a global supply chain that would not only address current state problems but one that would enable future expansion of the business. We took a technology “agnostic” approach to our assignment and focused on business KPIs and their interdependence with the supply chain. Our work resulted in significant optimization of day-to-day operations and elimination of waste. We also helped setup a governance structure that is in execution mode today.
