Structured performance management revolves around three key elements: defining the right performance metrics, analyzing current maturity, and implementing performance improvements.
Improving the effectiveness and efficiency of your supply chain starts with gaining visibility of its current performance. Establishing the right key performance indicators and performance metrics is crucial to understanding your current supply chain performance and identifying areas for improvement. Our seasoned consultants support you in defining a balanced performance management framework that tracks and manages performance across your entire supply chain and involved functions.

Read MoreWe firmly believe that the combination of artificial and human intelligence in supply chain management will always surpass a purely AI-driven strategy which only focuses on AI and overlooks the invaluable contributions of human expertise. Therefore, we developed an AI Assistant that provides real-time feedback during the supply chain planning process. This not only enhances user but also incorporates a plausibility check for added accuracy.
Read MoreClassical planning approaches rely on a single, most-likely value. However, these approaches oversimplify the variance in demand, lead time, and inventory replenishment quantity. This potentially results in inaccurate decision-making regarding inventory management and inventory replenishment strategies. Varvik uses probabilistic inventory management models that work with densities – meaning all possible values and their corresponding probability. By considering and visualizing the whole area of possible inventory positions, we significantly improve your planning quality and assist you in generating cost savings and optimizing your resource allocation.
