Your solution from msg Plaut
How can increasing complexity, greater flexibility, a rapid innovation spiral and high cost pressure be managed? Among other things, this requires an integrated plan and a high degree of integration capability.
How can we meet cost pressure challenges and at the same time achieve the planned growth? It can be assumed that your raw materials, materials, energy, personnel costs, logistics and environmental measures will become increasingly cost-intensive. Many leave the daily routine to "cost coincidence". Thereby 70-80% of the expected expenses can be influenced.
msg Plaut is happy to support you!
Do you deal with these questions?
- Are your supply chain costs constantly increasing?
- Are you aware of the "cost traps" within your manufacturing process and logistics?

- Do you want to evaluate or simulate the costs of your sourcing and distribution scenarios?
- Are sales and logistics costs reliably and transparently allocated to customers and articles?
