We Utilize a Proven Roadmap to Guide You
The 5-Step Roadmap to Warehouse ROI
Step 1: Assess
What We Do:
Deep dive the operation, listen to your team, run the data, baseline performance, understand your unique problems, and quantity the opportunity
What You Get:
A clear picture of how your warehouse runs today, with processes and pain points documented, quick wins identified, labor and throughput challenges quantified to “size the prize”
Step 2: Plan
What We Do:
Identify the stakeholders, agree on the solution requirements, align with service and labor goals, build design options with you, prepare budgets, and assess risks
What You Get:
A documented concept design, strategic (phased) roadmap with ROI-backed options that fit your business, and a business case your stakeholders can approve
Step 3: Procure
What We Do:
Create a detailed schedule and cash flows, bring in the right vendors, scorecard the proposals with stakeholders, and partner with you to contract with vendors at the best price
What You Get:
Contracted vendor(s) that fit your business, with clear SLAs and performance factors, a detailed solution to be built, and a project plan to implement
Step 4: Build
What We Do:
Stay on the ground with your team, oversee the build, manage the details, execute a test plan, develop acceptance criteria, mitigate risks, update stakeholders, and train your workforce for adoption
What You Get:
A "Go Live" with stakeholder support, delivered on time and on budget, with trained associates, stabilized systems, and progress you can demonstrate - while keeping daily operations going
Step 5: Prove
What We Do:
Track the data, measure ROI vs. the business case, gauge adoption, recommend improvements, and document cultural alignment and lessons learned
What You Get:
A proud organization that can prove your investment paid off - with adoption scorecards, and lessons learned to strengthen your next initiative
"We Put Skin In The Game"
To Assess and “Size the Prize”, we only charge to cover our costs until value is agreed by all stakeholders.
Why? Enables a quick-start partnership to quantify the opportunity, and builds trust with stakeholders before asking for broader commitment.
"We want to be your long-term implementation partner"
We provide a high-probability estimate of the all-in investment cost, and can guarantee costs won’t exceed the estimate
Why? Having certainty of investment increases comfort and confidence in the business case before we begin to spend.
"We are confident in our estimates"
We can charge lower consulting rates during the Procure and Build phases when we participate benefits post go-live.
Why? Lowers consulting cash flows during the project, enhancing the payback, and benefiting all parties when the business case is met.
"Focuses everyone on the business outcomes"
