Continuous improvement requires putting the right ideas into action
in a rapid and effective manner. It requires balancing insight with implementation, technology and tactics, big ideas and the bottom-line.
The Steelwedge Strategic Consulting Services team is dedicated to helping you identify the right business planning strategies and then putting them to work for you. Strategies that help you get ahead - and stay ahead - with growth, profitability and market leadership. Strategies that help you focus on your most valuable asset - your customers. Strategies that drive best-in-class excellence in sales planning, sales and operations planning (S&OP), collaborative forecasting, demand planning, and supply chain planning.
We organize our Strategic Consulting Services program into six categories:
1. Integrated Planning Assessment (IPA)
This risk-free workshop helps
your organization evaluate the need for improved business planning to improve operating results. Steelwedge experts, deeply experienced in Sales and Operations Planning (S&OP), collaborative sales forecasting and integrated business planning, work together with your management team to benchmark your processes against best practices, identify opportunities to lower operating costs, estimate the value of an integrated business planning initiative, and develop a strategic vision for adopting planning best practices.
In business it takes a careful balance of creativity and discipline to turn strategy into results. We call it Analysis-to-Action – identifying gaps in current processes, understanding the landscape of tools, information and personnel available, and then translating this information into an improved planning process.
We approach our business planning strategy and business process design activities with rapid business impact as the goal. We survey your business landscape, benchmark your business against best practices, and then carefully assess whether these best practices make business sense for you. We heavily leverage our deep industry expertise, our close relationship with the University of Tennessee’s team of leading business planning experts, our partnership with Oliver Wight Consulting, and our constantly growing library of customer-driven best practice measures.
