Accenture has the industry knowledge, strategy expertise and supply chain experience to help clients design and execute significant transformational programs that cross traditional Planning, Sourcing & Procurement, Manufacturing & Design, and Fulfillment Operations functions.
Via our Planning, Sourcing & Procurement, Manufacturing & Design, and Fulfillment Operations groups, Accenture's supply chain specialists work to enhance specific capabilities. Sometimes, however, a client needs to rapidly and fundamentally improve the performance of their extended supply chain in support of critical market goals.
The resulting benefits—increased profitability, greater shareholder value and more effective management of the extended enterprise—are manifest companywide. Supply Chain Transformation also focuses on building and sustaining the world-class supply chain capabilities needed to improve current supply chain performance and drive future improvement and innovation. Accenture's Supply Chain Academy is the premier global supply chain learning solution available in the marketplace. Additionally, our Supply Chain Performance Assessment tool provides a comprehensive framework to quickly analyze our clients' supply chains and develop a fact-based, value-based case for change.
To learn more about Supply Chain Transformation and how it can impact a company's ability to grow and prosper, read a report about research Accenture conducted with INSEAD and Stanford University. The multifaceted research project was conducted to understand how companies derive competitive advantage from their supply chains. The research demonstrates a correlation between the quality of a company's supply chain and its famp;inancial performance, confirming that transforming supply chain operations can substantially impact a company's ability to achieve high performance. The research also yields conclusions about how and why leading companies incorporate supply chain management into their business strategies.
