THE OPERATIONAL BACKBONE TO GLOBAL SOLUTIONS
Chris Graham Consultancy delivers a world class product (product defined as any and all interactions our customers have with CGC). CGC constantly looks to learn, adapt, adjust and fine tune to optimise the product offering.
Ultimately we look at the product (again, as a whole), and consider whether to pivot or hold firm on our strategy, to ensure the end product and the overall strategy remain intact and aligned with our customers needs.
What all these drivers have in common is the ability to achieve more with less.
The sum of the components will take strides to increasing speed to market, and scaling up of the supply chain:
1. DIGITISATION AND INTEGRATION OF VERTICAL AND HORIZONTAL VALUE CHAINS:
Horizontally, PM4.0 integrates processes across the entire organisation, for example processes in product development, manufacturing, logistics and service. Whereas vertically, PM4.0 includes internal operations from suppliers to customers plus all key value chain partners.
2. DIGITISATION OF PRODUCT AND SERVICE OFFERINGS:
Our global systems and processes are geared towards a remote team who needs to be in sync. The digitisation platforms allow us to capture rich data about the product and the project at all stages of the process.
3. DIGITAL DEMAND DRIVEN SUPPLY:
Reaching customer satisfaction is a multi-stage, never-ending process that needs to be modified continually as customers’ needs change all the time. Therefore, companies expand their offerings by establishing disruptive digital business models to provide their customers with solutions that meet their needs best. CGC manages demand-driven supply across a range of products, from consumer electronics to military and FMCG. We drive agility, regardless of the customer category.
4. SUSTAINABILITY AND ENVIRONEMENTAL PRESERVATION:
CGC envisions environmentally-sustainable manufacturing by having green manufacturing processes, green supply chain management, and green products. This includes development of patentable, sustainable packaging solutions.
The responsibility rests with the team managing each program, from defining the need to delivering the result.
This is underpinned by a well governed chain of custody.
