The New Supply Chain Survey 2024
The Supply Chain Survey 2024 is launched soon. Read more about this 5 step survey to align the supply chain with the company strategy.
Our core. Developing sustainable and innovative network solutions. Methodical. Analytical. Creatively.
Supply chain optimization and design. This has been at the core of our company from the beginning of our existence. Understanding the interplay between customers, suppliers, factories and distribution and connections. And this in an environment that is constantly changing. Globalization, new markets, mergers, acquisitions, disasters, war, organization are under constant pressure. This makes the design of the supply chain one of the most strategic parts in an organization. Where should production take place? how many distribution centers do we need, what service levels can we promise our customers? It is these questions that we have been able to support approximately 200 companies with over the past 15 years. To do this as best as possible, we have developed a practical and robust approach.

Our approach is analytical. Model-based. An approach that allows us to compare various scenarios. Although we heavily rely on models and techniques, it is a practical approach. Over the past years, we have had the privilege of collaborating intensively with a variety of wonderful companies, both small and large. This confirms that our analytical and practical approach works. However, it is not always a model or optimization technique that we use. Often, mapping out the current network is sufficient. This provides so much clarity that an advanced model does not add much value. A significant part of our work involves visualizing and describing the organization.
In the past 15 years, we have focused (or had to focus) on our services several times. In recent years, we have increasingly developed products that companies can use independently. autonomously. Where the methodology, for example in the form of a survey, yields concrete actions or insights. Especially this last pillar: Training, is growing rapidly. With the maturity and strategy survey, it has gained momentum.
Supply Chain Optimization
Production, distribution, and transportation networks
Network optimization is at the heart of our services. We have been active in this niche for years and with great success. We have now built up an impressive portfolio of clients here and carried out more than 200 projects. This has resulted in a practical and targeted approach that quickly leads to results. With the powerful tools that are now available on the market and that we have developed over the years, these types of analyzes have become very accessible.

Supply Chain Analytics
It all starts with asking the right questions
One of the most important steps in every project we do is without a doubt mapping the current situation. Often one of the most time-consuming jobs, if not done in a structured manner. Visualizing and comparing costs, volumes and performance is something we have a lot of experience with and do in a very targeted manner. Without exception, it provides valuable insights. It is a kind of analysis of the current state of the supply chain that is often even sufficient. Over the years, we have developed a practical approach to mapping the supply chain that saves a lot of time and removes many concerns. Even if the data management is not always in order. Together we always succeed in complementing the image..

Do-it-Yourself
Supply Chain Survey 2024
This approach and questions have been summarized in separate products that our clients can use themselves. As mentioned, the first step in projects we do is always mapping the supply chain. We need to understand what is going well, what problems arise, what the new situation must meet, and so on. We try to get as complete a picture as possible. That means asking a lot of questions, collecting, organizing and combining a lot of information. We have noticed that these surveys, often developed with our clients, are a fully-fledged product in themselves. Surveys that our clients can carry out themselves, without our help, and thus take steps themselves. It has become a wonderful approach that brings a lot of value to our clients. Every organization can start using it immediately. It does not require a large investment and immediately produces a list of concrete actions and priorities. Would you like to know more about the value of this approach, the outcomes and how it can be used?
