The Story
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.
