Services

Effective supply chains are central to successful business performance. In today’s markets, ever more demanding customer requirements and ever-increasing competition are placing pressures on organisations’ supply chain management.

Over the past 20 years we’ve successfully helped over 300 organisations around the world.

The essence of what LCP does is to:

• create specific approaches that are tailored to our clients’ businesses
• devise final solutions that our clients can sustain.

The key to our services is our ability to identify the right type of service to meet our client’s specific business need, together with our expertise in combining exactly the right people with the right industry knowledge and functional expertise to form an integrated team with our client’s staff.

Core to all our services - whether it’s in the areas of strategy, operational design or change management - is knowledge-driven consulting, at the heart of which is a set of proven tools and techniques. These provide a fact-based approach to creating business solutions and a compelling case for change.

Our full complement of service lines (which we continuously develop to ensure we actively support our clients), provides advice through consultancy and experienced support for the realisation of supply chain gain. We can create new teams through recruitment and temporary placement, and develop existing teams through knowledge transfer and training.

Here are some examples of where we’ve used our full range of service lines to our clients’ benefit:

• we transformed the supply chain of a UK retailer - £20m in benefit
• we designed one of the major automated distribution centres in the UK
• we redesigned the logistics outsourcing contract for a major organisation - savings of 25%
• we supplied a Supply Chain Director for a major retailer - first as an interim, and then in role
• we delivered a crucial market positioning research study for an automotive business.

We’re particularly proud of our strong links with some of the world’s finest professional and academic organisations specialising in supply chain management, which enable us to bring the best expertise to our clients and to undertake leading edge research that can be applied for their benefit.
