Global benchmarking study:

Reduced costs and improved customer service significantly impacts the bottom-line

In a global benchmarking study of 800 companies across multiple industries, representing about $1 trillion in revenues, Deloitte Research found that more than 80 per cent of companies are not realizing the full value of their global investments due to wasted resources and lackluster performance. In many of these organizations, sub-optimization reduced their bottom-line profits by 50 per cent or more.On the other hand, 15 per cent of the companies found that continuous optimization through reducing costs and improving customer service yielded significant results. In one example, a leading manufacturer of industrial products improved annual profits by 75 percent. This requires a holistic, global view of the business rather than a piecemeal approach to the individual parts of the global supply chain.
