Strategic Advisory

Supply strategy for semiconductor manufacturing

Objective

Develop a strategic decision-making framework based on scenario planning to guide the company’s substrate supply strategy. The framework should identify relevant macro-level forces (e.g., geopolitical tensions, technological evolution, talent availability, etc.), assess their impact and uncertainty on the strategic decision, and consider them to guide the focal decision.

Tactical planning framework for logistics planning in the Chemicals industry

Objective

Develop scenarios and an associated scenario planning framework to guide tactical planning of the company’s global logistics operations. The scenarios should consider short-term, unpredictable uncertainties that affect day-to-day logistics operations (e.g., shipping chemicals from Asian manufacturing sites to European customers).

Strategic Supply Chain Scenario Planning Playbook

Objective

Perform a thorough analysis of the company’s long-term business environment (5-10 years) to identify key trends and uncertainties, develop scenarios, and help the company identify strategic choices for effective supply chain management. Develop a playbook to help the company decide how to adapt its supply chain based on the changes in the business environment.

Logistics Infrastructure Planning

Objective

Develop scenarios and a process to guide long-range planning (30 years) of a region’s freight infrastructure (e.g., highways, railroads, waterways, intermodal facilities, etc.). The scenario and the framework should be flexible enough to be used by any federal, state, or regional transportation planning agency in the U.S.
