Creating better cost structures by optimization
of the value-added chain

Against the background of lower cost structures of the Emerging Markets until foreseeable future European enterprises have the chance, to reconsider their value-added chain newly and to realize substantially lower production costs by shift of value steps to more economical locations.

The competitive position of your enterprise can be improved fundamentally with that. We support you at the segmentation of the value-added chain of your enterprise after parts and technologies. For the individual segments suitable production locations and technologies are then suggested.

The consequences are evaluated according to the TCO method (Total Cost Ownership). For suggested alternatives we identify suitable suppliers or support you at the production shift. The design of a logistics concept and the support until the successful production start is part of our service.
 
We work with experienced advisers both in Europe, in Asia and in Eastern Europe and realize significant savings for our customers. Example: Alternative value-added chains are different by up to 20% of the total costs although the locations already lie partly in low cost countries.
