Develop & design logistics strategies and operational solutions.
Once the key improvement options have been outlined in the “Opportunity” stage of the process, The Progress Group works in a team configuration with key representatives of the client company to evaluate the options and to develop an integrated set of strategic recommendations aimed at achieving the overall project objectives.
This kind of team structure, our people working closely with your people from day one, is crucial to the process in two ways: first, it gives the project ongoing access to the depth of knowledge about your corporate culture that only members of your internal team can have; and, second, it helps your leaders take ownership of the plan and prepare to implement it concurrent with their day-to-day efforts. Armed with analytical tools and the acumen to sell ideas within an organization, we will guide the integrated team to solutions that will be compatible with your culture and business processes. In short, we effectively marry your business process with a logistics management approach that works for your company, your resources and your people.
This phase of the project is typically completed when a plan of action has been developed and a business case has been finalized to support it.
