"In 2010 Cargill, a $130B international producer and marketer of food, agricultural, financial and industrial products and services, initiated a project to reorganize the fragmented procurement function into a centralized Global Strategic Sourcing Function.

In an investment portfolio, some assets perform better than others. The reasons for the underperformance of an asset are varied. They might have been overlooked during the buyer’s due diligence.
We assess the root-cause of underperformance and proposes an execution plan to bridge the gap between current conditions and the Business Plan.
Commercial – e.g., overlooked higher-margin products or target markets, low diversification of the customer base, room for pricing optimisation.
Technical – e.g., reduced level of maintenance leading to a high frequency of unplanned shutdowns, a limited capital investment plan to support planned revenue streams.
Environmental, Health and Safety – e.g., outstanding remediation activities and impact on the cost of decommissioning, poor operating practices.
Here are a few dozen short case studies. This format works well when presenting multiple in general client situations. A number of them were done at past employers.

Organizations receive a daily influx of paper documents such as invoices, applications, claim forms and other supporting documentation that must be reviewed, processed and preserved. Manually managing the flow of these documents causes delays and processing errors that inevitably increase costs, impact customer response, reduce efficiency and threaten compliance.
Join Paragon Solutions and EMC to learn how using Intelligent Document Capture as a means to drive data and documents quickly into processes can dramatically reduce manual preparation, data entry and cycle time. We’ll also share our Business Case Approach to demonstrate how Paragon helped an organization that processes 600,000 forms annually implement document capture to electronically distribute, search and store information, reducing processing time by 38 percent and cutting costs by 30 percent.

Adani SEBI investigation revealed that the latter had sought information from five foreign jurisdictions concerning the holdings of the firm’s foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) in relation to the alleged violations of the MPS Regulations. Nevertheless, the economic interest of the twelve FPIs based in tax haven jurisdictions still needs to be determined. The Adani Group firms classed these FPIs as public shareholders. According to Hindenburg, FPIs were used to get around regulatory standards.

Knowing how to tell a well-structured story is key to building long-term memory. Stating a clear purpose that doesn't take away from the discovery learning process is critical. Ensuring that people move from theory to practical application is imperative. Creating strong social learning is the key to commitment and engagement. Validating and affirming participants' comments is the way to create a positive learning environment.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

WHAT WE SOURCE
21. THE OPPORTUNITY
A start-up company in the Solar Industry engaged Gainshare to source electro-
mechanical parts & assemblies in China. The company also needed assistance in
selecting a U.S. based contract manufacturer.
WHAT WE DID
Working through its network in China, GainShare surveyed the market, selected
candidate suppliers, secured quotations and led the qualification of the selected
sources. GainShare also led the selection of a contract manufacturer, managed the
contract negotiation and qualification of the source.
RESULTS & BENEFITS
The sourcing effort in China led to 40-50% cost reductions over previous U.S. based
sources. Supply chain redundancy was also bolstered through the qualification of dual
sources. The contract manufacturing engagement delivered costs that were 20% less
than what was assumed in the Client’s business plan.
22. THE OPPORTUNITY
A company in the Data Security Industry contracted Gainshare to lead the selection
and qualification of an outsourced manufacturing partner. Previously production was
handled out of Australia and the company wanted to establish presence in the U.S.
market.
WHAT WE DID
Leveraging our supplier management expertise, GainShare surveyed the market,
selected candidate suppliers, secured quotations and led the selection of the outsource
partner. The qualification & integration of the partner will begin in Q1 2015.
RESULTS & BENEFITS
The addition of the manufacturing partner significantly improved the design of the
supply chain. Previously it was disparate and involved multiple sources. The new
design brought it under one roof. Cost reduction expectations were also exceeded.
The target was $10K per system. GainShare delivered $15K.
23. THE OPPORTUNITY
A company in the Electronic Credit Card Industry was struggling to ramp production
and meet Customer demand. The company engaged Gainshare to perform and end-
to-end audit of their operations, to provide recommendations and to assist in
implementing them.
WHAT WE DID
Over a two week period, GainShare performed the audit and generated a report that
included multiple recommendations for improvement. We prioritized the operational
gaps and developed project plans for addressing them.
RESULTS & BENEFITS
The project is still active, but we have implemented a new management dashboard,
organizational proposals that are being acted upon, an 8D problem resolution process
and several other key business process changes. Production is more predictable and
has stabilized. The unfilled backlog has come down by one third.
24. THE OPPORTUNITY
A company involved in the Medical Equipment Industry engaged GainShare to source
several critical components used in a Nebulizer design. Most critical was a very low
cost, yet reliable, micro-pump.
WHAT WE DID
Leveraging our sourcing expertise in China, we identified six potential suppliers,
researched their capabilities, secured quotes and produced a sourcing report that
included corresponding recommendations for the Client.
RESULTS & BENEFITS
The Client had previously secured $4.00 pricing for the micro-pump. GainShare
delivered potential sources at $1.50-$2.00 exceeding the Clients expectations. Samples
are in-route to the Client and we expect to qualify and commission two low cost
sources soon.
