ProActive Services
 
Strategic Supply Chain Development
 
With years of strategic business management and hands-on supply chain experience, our team at ProActive understand what makes your strategy effective and how to apply relevant best practices to improve your day-to-day supply chain solutions.

Our team will work with clients to develop optimum cost/ service supply networks together with a reduced environmental impact. We will use leading supply chain diagnostic methodologies and modelling tools to identify options available. This can include site reviews, analysis of transport options and service providers, etc.


Functional Excellence
 
Comprising 3 key areas:

1. Warehouse operations improvement
Essentially this will involve our team identifying and implementing either the use of automated or manual storage and goods handling throughout the supply chain to significantly reduce cost whilst improving service.

2. Transport operations effectiveness
Does your customer service and reputation suffer e.g. late deliveries? Are you aware of any forthcoming legislation changes that make running your fleet more onerous?

ProActive can help you to achieve excellence in your transport effectiveness and ensure that physical movement solutions are providing you with the optimum cost/ service balance. We will work with you: from tendering distribution operations and improved fleet utilisation, to re-specifying the in-house fleet and all operational processes and IT systems.

3. Customer service improvements
ProActive will help you to improve availability and support services to your customers so as to increase sales and strengthen trade relationships - and reduce cost. Full performance measurement KPI suites are implemented to ensure sustainable change is ultimately delivered.


Operational Recovery and Crisis Aversion
 
Whether a crisis or impending challenge, we are able to put in place dedicated individuals or teams so as to be able to react immediately to resolve the key critical issues and identify plans to ensure a sustainable solution.

 
Supply Chain Optimisation
 
Comprising 3 key areas:

1. Demand Management, Sales &Operational Planning and Order to Cash (re-engineering and development)
ProActive offer you practical advice, unique expertise and valuable experience employing "the theory of constraints", cost to serve and other techniques.  We can offer expertise and knowledge to companies seeking to implement or improve processes and enhance skills of the people involved.

2. Inventory Rationalisation
We offer supply chain management expertise to reduce inventory as well as cost without eroding service. This may also involve the development of a dynamic stock policy.

3. Cost To Serve
 Understanding the true end-to-end cost of servicing each customer, sales channel or product - to identify non-added value activity to reduce avoidable costs. Essential for Channel/ Distribution reviews. We can develop your Cost To Serve process to reflect the environmental cost of your operations and determine your Triple Bottom Line Profit
