The mining and construction material industry is vital in the global economy. Firms in this sector must embrace technological advancements and optimize their MRO (Maintenance, Repair and Operations) procurement processes to maintain competitive advantage and financial sustainability.
A notable global management consultancy collaborated with Flexing It to drive transformative changes in digital MRO (Maintenance, Repair and Operations).
The success of this project hinged upon the expertise and experience of a highly proficient supply chain and resource mapping specialist with over 8+ years of industry experience. The consultant's prior accomplishments in operational and analytical projects, including identifying substantial revenue leakages and mitigating risk through customer profiling exercises, showcased the depth of their capabilities. With a background as a founding partner at a GIS solutions startup, the consultant brought a unique blend of innovative insights and data-driven strategies to the table.
The project's primary focus centered around optimizing digital MRO procurement at various mining locations of the client. The consultant directed efforts in two pivotal workstreams, namely Catalogue Buying and De-propping, to streamline supply chain processes and identify potential cost-saving opportunities. The consultant laid the groundwork for data collection and advanced analytics through on-site visits to raw material locations. This helped identify cost reduction and efficiency enhancement areas.
The consultant accomplished an impressive 100% of the projected cost savings, underscoring the value of data-driven decision-making in procurement optimization.
To foster collaboration and secure stakeholder buy-in, the consultant meticulously planned and conducted workshops at regular intervals.
