• Sustainable Cost
Reduction goes beyond
traditional cost reduction-
it is focused on
reducing costs through
sustainable practices
• Companies are often
using cost reduction with
a focus on short-term
gains and therefore miss
out on long-term
possibilities for cost
reduction
• Cost reduction is one of
the most important
ongoing issues in
businesses and ensures
continuous profitability
• At the same time,
sustainability has proven
to enhance a company’s
profits and preparing it for
future possibilities
• The public and
companies’ stakeholders
increasingly demand
sustainability to be taken
into account.
• Our approach is
interesting for all
companies who want to
reduce costs
• It is designed for a cross-
functional team of
purchasing, production,
sales, supply chain,
logistics etc. who will
jointly work on reductions
• As a result top- and
middle managers can

reductions are
achievable

Challenge
Approach and Solution
“Take Aways”
• Client is a € 700 Mio. German Electronics company, delivering
products, solutions and services in the industrial environment of
power, signal and data.
• Though still in a beneficial economic situation, the company has
set itself the goal of increasing its growth profit margin (GPM) to
50%.
• In order to reach its Gross Marging
targets, the company had to
drastically reduce its cost of sales
• At the same time, the client aimed
to raise its turnover by 40% over
the next 5 years.
• The company had already
undertaken certain measures to
reduce costs, mainly within its
production set up (lean etc.), and
wanted to identify further savings
• The objective was to identify
significant savings potential to be
realised in the next 1-2 years
without jeopardizing growth.
• shared.value.chain supported the client in conducting workshops
to generate ideas and measures to improve costs, esp. COS.
• The workshops were conducted within multi-functional teams
(product development, quality, purchasing, SCM, controlling,
product management) for different products/ product groups.
• Technical support and moderation enabled multi-functional
teams to identify a broad range of new and unique saving ideas.
• Start early to optimize your
cost saving approach – don’t
wait until the market forces
you to do it!
• Introduce a project
management office to
manage/track the agreed
savings and project
approaches.
• Use the power of cross-
functional teams and align
constantly with project owners.
• Take a ‘we’ instead of an ‘I’
approach to unlock the
potential within the company.
