Strategy and mission statement A clear vision, a precise mission, a distinct strategy, and a consistent value system are essential for positioning your company in the market and aligning your organization with the corporate goal. Our strategic approach ensures the determination of your complementary management model and iteratively adapts it to new challenges.
Defining your corporate vision, mission, strategy, and value system as a management system is one of the most crucial and far-reaching decisions your company can make. With our validated and systemic strategy development approach, we integrate key stakeholders of your company, ensuring successful implementation. Integrated Business Planning Your Mission statement You will receive a clear corporate vision that succinctly and precisely describes your long-term goals and strategies, serving as a crucial guiding principle for your company. Especially in highly dynamic environments, your corporate vision provides a distinct framework for your employees' actions. This clarity aligns your entire organization with your corporate objective, facilitating efficient and complementary decision-making at all levels.
Your mission statement defines your business actions and purpose, clarifying how the long-term corporate goals described in your corporate vision will be achieved. Your entire organization is oriented toward this long-term corporate goal, fostering strong identification among your employees within your company.
Values are fundamental life principles and are individually interpreted. They are not universally definable and often compete with each other. However, they reduce complexity and are always linked to actions. Despite these complex characteristics, organizations develop informal structures, rules, and behaviors from which common values can be derived. Based on several different and suitable approaches to determining values for your organization, we guide your organization in defining its corporate values. This creates a framework for behavior that is valid for all participants in your company, regardless of status, and serves as the foundation for a positive corporate culture. Integrated corporate planning provides a framework through which all resources and organizations within the company are seamlessly aligned with the company's strategy. This enables the integration of all corporate functions towards the overarching goals of the company. Frictional losses are avoided, goal achievement is expedited across functions, and the implementation of the corporate strategy is monitored and ensured.
Our approach to integrated business planning goes well beyond improving functional and cross-functional processes. We ensure scalable workflows and structures and consistently align your organization with them. This helps you gain real competitive advantages. Your strategy
With our approach, you'll obtain scalable strategies that enable you to achieve your long-term objectives through flexible courses of action. We minimize the goal gap resulting from the long-term nature of a strategy through interactive planning horizons and cycles that can be scaled at various levels. This provides you with the significant advantage of being able to flexibly respond to a wide range of business dynamics while remaining true to your corporate vision and strategy.
Nevertheless, we recommend regular validation of your corporate and departmental strategies within defined cycles. This enhances your agility and flexibility in dynamic market environments.
Our systemic approach offers three essential benefits:
Excellent Decision Foundation: By integrating a broad range of stakeholders, multiperspective information is provided, and considering these perspectives provides an optimal basis for long-term strategic decisions. This elevates your decision-making foundation for this process to a significantly higher level.
High Organizational Acceptance: Involving selected employees enhances the identification of the entire workforce. Our procedural strategy development approach makes the corporate strategy tangible for your employees, significantly simplifying the strategy's rollout within the organization.
Coherent Linking of Strategy and Mission: Based on these prerequisites and interactive project approaches, the alignment between vision, mission, and strategy is achieved automatically. This makes your strategy development highly efficient.
SUPPLY CHAIN & OPERATIONS MANAGEMENT
SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT
Companies are facing shorter and shorter product life cycles, more complex and unreliable supply chains, and increasingly strict legal framework conditions. We help our customers make their supply chains dynamic, sustainable, agile, and scalable. Our ultra-precise, ongoing monitoring of supply chains is helpful here, and gives you the ability to respond very quickly to potential disruptions. It allows you to make your supply chain efficient and flexible, thereby ensuring a continuous flow of goods.
To accomplish this, we integrate agile structures and processes into your organization. This makes you much more agile across all functions throughout the organization and the company. SUPPLY CHAIN STRATEGY
In order to maintain and/or improve the reliability of supply chains, you need a detailed understanding of the opportunities and risks. We analyze your supply chain from many different perspectives in order to give you a holistic and systematic analysis. Our analysis considers the precision of demand and inventory forecasts, the influences on manufacturing, the storage and transport of materials and goods, the likelihood of economic and political influences, and the social maturity level of the supply chain.
This gives you a comprehensive overview of the opportunities in your supply chains and the necessary areas of activity, so that you can maintain your delivery capacity. We help you implement these areas of activity, giving you a significant advantage over your competitors. SUPPLY CHAIN & OPERATIONS NETWORK-PLANNING & OPTIMIZATION
We help you define and adapt your supply chain strategy. This gives you the basis for a consistent, shared alignment of all the functions in your supply chain – from customer to upstream supplier. And it is precisely this cross-functional, organization-wide and company-wide supply chain setting that makes a clearly defined supply chain strategy so necessary and valuable. Based on your supply chain strategy, we evaluate your sales markets, evaluate and optimize your production and logistics networks, and manage your supplier portfolio. This gives you real competitive advantages in constantly evolving markets.
A consistent supply chain strategy requires a clear corporate strategy, as well as a vision and mission that are fully implemented within your company. This provides the basis for coherent, structured alignment of all of the employees in your company and beyond.
We review your supply chain strategies in terms of how well they fit with your corporate strategy and we derive adaptation potentials. You will need these potentials in order to tailor your supply chain to your customers. Supply Continuity & Risk Assessment
The risk of a disruption in your supply chain network increases disproportionately with the globalization of your supply chains. We help you to integrate an active supply chain and operation network management process. We use this process to determine economic and preventative optimization potentials for you. By leveraging economic potentials, we can help you reduce costs or throughput times, for instance. By identifying the possible causes of supply interruptions and eliminating or mitigating them, we make your supply chain much more robust. This helps improve your goods availability on the market. Green Supply Chain
A major focus of our risk assessment for end-to-end supply chains is their ecological sustainability. We help our customers design supply-chain solutions to protect our natural resources. A wide variety of perspectives come into play here. In addition to focusing on approaches to improve the use of resources, we also focus on preventing their overuse. We use levers from the fields of product development, procurement, production, logistics and SHE.

Organisation & culture
CIP

Your capacity and qualification requirements will become transparent down to the smallest detail. From recruiting to staff transfers and training, you will always be able to make the right decisions to make your organization more efficient.

A precise, frictionless organization that is designed for your corporate purpose will create significant competitive advantages for your company.
We use our organizational approaches to define precise, measurable qualification profiles for your organizational roles, which gives you a transparent target structure. This target structure is characterized by modern organizational principles that allow your employees to take on relevant cross-functional responsibilities.
Based on these qualification profiles, we help you determine personnel development needs for your role holders. You will receive clear, measurable decision-making materials for further developing your employees and/or staffing new positions. This benefits you, as the process is transparent for every employee. This makes your decisions clear and understandable, even if they may be unpopular sometimes. The continuous improvement process is a cultural element that should be anchored in every company. Employers and managers must expect every employee to strive for effectiveness and efficiency.
