  • Supplier Quality Dashboard Integration

    A dashboard creation project was implemented for real time monitoring of supplier QA for an FMCG company working with a large number of suppliers. The issue identified were lack of well defined KPIs for suppliers, multiple sources for data for supplier quality, no real time numbers for quick decision making. The project addressed these concerns by defining KPIs for each supplier, consolidating data from multiple sources and creating real time dashboards using Microsoft Power BI. Extensive trainings were conducted in-house and suppliers were sensitized about the new QA monitoring mechanism. This resulted in centralized tracking of supplier quality thereby releasing bandwidth of 4 resources.

  • Building Vendor Capability Metrics

    A process capability model was developed for the vendor management department of an organization. The key issue identified was having no visibility on vendor performances and no way to compare their performances (as all vendors used their own capability metrics). The team used to do a monthly and quarterly review but it was more with a lag of at least a month. The vendor management team wanted a more real time monitoring of the vendor performance and also be able to compare them. A comprehensive study was conducted on all vendor processes and a robust model was built where Sigma Levels were calculated for all vendors on a weekly basis. This ensured quicker monitoring and a suitable method to compare their performance. This project was able to streamline the vendor management department and resulted in savings of INR 23 lacs by removing the low performing vendors.

  • Driving Cost Savings Through Value Engineering

    A Value Engineering project was done to reduce production costs of a household appliance without compromising quality. Initially, production costs were INR 10 lacs per batch. The team conducted a value analysis with a cross functional team and external SMEs, identifying alternative materials and optimizing manufacturing processes. They collaborated with suppliers to negotiate better rates, reducing costs by 15% to INR 8.5 lacs per batch. This cost saving of INR 1.5 lakhs per batch enhanced profitability and allowed competitive pricing, increasing market share by 10%.
