Value Gateway

Select the Operating Pressure
Shaping Current Priorities

Every transformation begins with a dominant pressure. Identify yours, and we'll map the precise pathway from constraint to capability.

Margin & Working Capital Pressure

Inventory immobility, cost-to-serve, working capital drag

Pathway
→ Flow & Financial Efficiency

Execution & Throughput Instability

Variability, line stops, warehouse slips, OTIF exposure

Pathway
→ Operational Performance

Architecture & Integration Fragmentation

ERP–MES–WMS–Planning misalignment, interface latency, dependency risk

Pathway
→ System Coherence & Integration

Planning–Execution Drift

S&OP/IBP cycles disconnected from execution reality

Pathway
→ Planning–Execution Alignment

Modernization & Platform Pressure

Cloud ERP, aging MES/WMS, platform gaps

Pathway
→ Modernization & Architecture

Compliance / Quality / Risk Exposure

GxP findings, release delays, traceability gaps

Pathway
→ Quality & Reliability

Investor or Board Mandate

EBITDA uplift, integration readiness, operational leverage

Pathway
→ Value Creation & M&A

How Value Is Measured

Operational truth quantified through financial impact. No vanity metrics-only value pathways that resonate with CEOs, COOs, CIOs, CFOs, and PE partners.

Operational
Financial

Throughput → Revenue & Cycle Time → Inventory

Higher throughput lifts revenue potential; reduced cycle time compresses WIP and frees working capital.

Operational
Financial

Flow Reliability → Service Levels & Expedite Cost → Margin

Consistent flow improves OTIF; fewer expedites lower logistics cost and protect contribution margin.

Operational
Financial

Plan Stability → Labor Efficiency → Overtime & Capacity

Stable plans reduce schedule churn, overtime burn, and capacity distortion across the network.

Operational
Financial

Quality Consistency → Scrap/Rework → Margin

Higher first-pass yield eliminates rework loops, reduces material loss, and protects gross margin.

Operational
Financial

Execution Rhythm → Network Performance → Working Capital

Synchronized production–warehouse–logistics execution reduces buffers, dwell time, and cash tied in the network.

Operational
Financial

Modernization Readiness → Integration Risk → PE Value Creation

Coherent architecture lowers integration risk in carve-outs, bolt-ons, or platform upgrades-directly impacting valuation and exit multiples.
