This project focused on establishing an independent operating system for a standalone company following a carve-out while enhancing company-wide performance-driven initiatives to strengthen competitiveness. Key activities included procurement, logistics optimization, IT infrastructure development, and inventory management improvements, successfully creating an independent management framework.
Addressing Industry Challenges Post-Carve-Out
The glass industry, utilized in construction, automotive, and electronics, faces growing global demand and the need for continual innovation in high-value products. Transitioning to independent management after a carve-out presented challenges, particularly in establishing new systems and organizational frameworks without reliance on the former parent company. This project addressed these challenges by driving improvements across key functions to achieve both autonomy and operational efficiency.
Building Independent Systems Post-Carve-Out
- Implemented standalone MES and ERP systems to replace the parent company’s IT infrastructure.
- Redesigned procurement processes to enhance in-house sourcing capabilities for key raw materials and energy.
- Transitioned from group-level centralized purchasing to a competitive bidding-based strategy, achieving significant cost reductions.
Procurement and Logistics Optimization
- Analyzed sourcing matrices for critical purchase items, identified new suppliers, and enhanced competition among vendors.
- Reduced handling and transportation costs by optimizing logistics, thereby improving supply chain flexibility.
- Introduced resource recycling measures, such as B-grade cullet utilization, to improve cost competitiveness.
Establishing a Performance-Centered Operating Framework
- Redefined department-specific KPIs and built a performance-driven monitoring system.
- Enhanced inventory management by addressing long-term stock and strengthening S&OP (Sales and Operations Planning) processes.
- Adopted profit-and-loss-driven sales performance management systems to proactively meet customer and market demands.
Optimizing IT Infrastructure and Data Management
- Integrated ERP and MES systems to standardize data and enhance process alignment.
- Established real-time operational data monitoring and decision-support systems on a modern IT infrastructure.
Key Outcomes
The project delivered the following results:
- Achieved cost competitiveness through reduced procurement costs for critical items.
- Improved logistics and inventory operations, minimizing operational complexities.
- Accelerated digital transformation by implementing advanced IT systems, reinforcing data-driven decision-making capabilities.
Carve-Out as a Catalyst for Growth and Innovation
Carve-outs are not merely a means of achieving independence but also an opportunity to redefine competitiveness and unlock new growth potential. This project exemplifies a successful carve-out implementation, offering an innovative management strategy that serves as a benchmark for various industries and organizations.
