Cross-Functional Cost Reduction Adds 50-150 Basis Points of Profit


Bring 50 to 150 Basis Points of Incremental Profit to the Bottom Line By Elimination Costs "Hidden" Between Functional Silos

We're certain that 50 to 150 basis points of incremental profit is stuck "between" the functional areas of your company. Achieving superior levels of profitability requires tackling fixed-cost structures and the fundamental delivery of products and services.

SD Retail Consulting provides the insight, strategies and tactics to unlock these hidden opportunities.

Some examples:

  1. Cost-to-Sell: collapse silo-to-silo "hand-off" costs as product moves from source to sale.

  2. HQ Overhead: make "fixed" costs variable by increasing cross-functional collaboration and cost transparency.

  3. Marketing Asset Management: engage all front-line functions to improve asset utilization and drive top-line.

  4. Information Technology Asset Management: improve asset and services utilization by tying functional responsibilities to ROI.

The goal is clear: reduce costs and improve competitive performance. Breaking down "silo" barriers within the enterprise requires experience, not just in cost reduction or activity-based analyses, but via a differentiated approach focused on improving the effectiveness of the "softer" skills of your organization's front-line culture and talent.
