Scaling up operations and the associated supply chain activities are fundamental decisions; the consequences of getting them wrong are always serious and can be fatal to a firm’s competitive capabilities and survival. Capital employed and costs will increase; can these be offset by increased revenues in time?
This session will help companies avoid these costly mistakes in order to ensure their expansion programmes are delivered successfully.
The webinar will cover the following topics:
- Capacity – too much or too little are both damaging for business revenues
- Culture – are the skills and capabilities that got the business to this stage what’s needed to get to the next level?
- Capability – operating on a different scale asks new questions of people
- Collaboration – decisions around what activities are performed in-house and those outsourced should be reviewed as part of planning growth
- Complexity – growth doesn’t automatically have to mean increased complexity
- Costs – understanding the nature of your costs and how they are driven
- Capital – the difference between total capacity and effective capacity – where is capital investment required?
