Manufacturing Strategy & Capacity Planning
How to Best Utilize Existing and Future Manufacturing Assets
Infrastructure Strategy and Capacity Planning analysis identifies the best use of existing and potential capacity when comparing supply/capacity with demand changes across manufacturing and warehousing.
It is risky to intuitively manage capacity at a network level, as the trade-offs become interdependent and any moves across sites cause baseline manufacturing costs to shift. Instead, it requires a process that combines the ability to view complex variables and evaluate different options to arrive at analytically driven decision-making. However, only a minority of companies have this capacity for planning.
Your Key Decisions Optimized
- How much of which products to produce on which resources
- Make vs. buy
- When and where to add/divest capacity
Solving Complex Questions
- How many manufacturing locations are required? Where should they be located?
- Make vs. Buy? What are the ideal supplier terms?
- How best to adjust capacity and labor requirements seasonally?
- What is the optimal allocation of capital to improve the footprint? Should machines be upgraded or replaced?
