The Project
The Impact
Results
In 2012, a large international manufacturing company purchased a smaller player in their market. After the acquisition, the firm was seeking benefits of the new organizational structure to increase efficiencies and impact EBITDA.1. Costs were analyzed comparing top and bottom-line figures. This resulted in an initial set of savings initiatives on a department and project level.2. Targets were pushed into the organization to 25 managers and employees including the purchasing manager, country CIO, controller, CEO, CFO, supply chain director, etc.3. Employees added their savings initiatives to Treeveo and were championed for doing so.4. A project governance structure guaranteed the project’s progress and momentum. This included a steering committee of the CEO, CFO, Supply Chain Director, Controller etc and Treeveo.

During the first 6 months €500K in savings were realized in this organization that had previously undergone 7 consecutive years of cost savings. The project focused on non-product costs. After 12 months €1M was secured.
