Operating Model and Processes

We appreciate IPG’s guidance in our transformation toward DIGITAL FITNESS. Through a broad-based initiative, we identified significant efficiency potential within our organization and defined future solutions for company-wide JOST process management.

IPG’s deep expertise in Global Footprint & Operating Model redesign proved highly valuable. Another key success factor was the close integration with our organization, combined with a pragmatic, results-oriented approach. Within months, a clear roadmap was created and full management alignment was achieved.

DIGITAL FITNESS along our entire JOST value creation process is a key success factor for us. Together with IPG, we were able to uncover important efficiency potential in purchasing, supply chain and production and define valuable focal points for future digital solutions in company-wide JOST process management.

IPG has helped a lot to focus on creating something really new instead of letting the same thing become more intense. Together with IPG, we have managed to design a fully connected & harmonized operating model and cross-regional shared functions to leverage both our size as well as our expertise. As key result we thereby substantially increased our sales efficiency and productivity.

On the way to our new order fulfillment organization, we harmonized the roles, tasks and competencies between the functions involved and established a common end-2-end process understanding. In the interplay between "thought ahead" and "agreed within the circle of stakeholders", the IPG approach has contributed decisively to our new setup and our collaborative approach.

In the comprehensive exchange of knowledge and the global networking of know-how from different areas and perspectives, we see IPG with the relevant industry 4.0 competence as a valuable partner and impulse generator for the further development of Smart Factory solutions.
