Are your costs competitive?

Organizations may have been tempted to think that just cutting costs and waiting for the upturn is a recipe for survival. However, the reality is that we are witnessing a far reaching shift in the world economy and Irish companies need to consider more fundamental changes to survive.

Rising unemployment, falling demand, a strengthening Euro and oil price still rising. Most companies’ supply chains were developed in a more stable lower cost environment. Reducing head count and pressurising suppliers is not a sustainable option and may leave your company unable to drive longer term growth.

Cost Competitiveness remains a priority  for most companies

The company said the cost base in Ireland is unsustainable.

Faced with growing cost and margin pressures companies need to re-examine their supply chain strategies and consider more fundamental changes to underpin their survival.

We can help you to review your current supply chain strategy and develop a robust supply chain for the future.
