Lean Process Improvement & Supply Chain Management

Supply chain consulting and Lean Process Improvement represent untapped potential for countless organizations. Supply Velocity stands as Milwaukee’s premier consulting services provider in Supply Chain and Logistics Optimization. Our comprehensive solution has empowered Wisconsin clients to transform their global operation across manufacturing, retail, and healthcare industries.

Our lean and supply chain management approach encompasses three core elements:

1. Analysis & Assessment

An in-depth evaluation of your company’s logistics and distribution practices conducted by our expert team of industrial consultants.

2. Plan Development

Leveraging data gathered during our analysis, we develop a strategic and prioritized roadmap for your supply chain network optimization.

3. Implementation

We partner closely with management to execute our planning recommendations and provide training, or deliver detailed guidance on process improvement initiatives.

Integrated through system streamlining, execution, and operational excellence methodologies, we optimize Inventory, Sales initiatives, Warehouse Layout, Location and Network Design, and Process Effectiveness to reduce operational costs while maximizing value.

Beyond Lean Manufacturing and Supply Chain Consulting, Supply Velocity’s consulting services can also enhance your business through:

  • Sales & Operations Planning: Our S&OP solution enables organizations to boost forecasting accuracy and operational alignment. We create comprehensive visibility across sales, operations, and supply chain functions to minimize last-minute schedule disruptions. Our commercial approach helps companies establish management systems that streamline decision-making and drive supply chain excellence.
  • Warehouse & Plant Operations Optimization: Supply Velocity’s optimization services enhance productivity while leveraging technology and automation to reduce costs. We analyze your distribution and supply chain and logistics operations to identify bottlenecks and optimize facility layouts. Our expertise in transportation and shipping helps manufacturing firms achieve sustainable improvement across their network.
  • Business Process Improvement: Our methodology helps organizations transform operations by creating efficient workflows that enable superior customer service and operational excellence. We take a strategic approach to analyzing processes, identifying opportunity areas, and implementing solutions that enhance visibility throughout your fulfillment network.
  • Performance Measurement: Effective performance tracking requires visibility into key metrics and management systems to monitor progress toward excellence. Our consultants establish comprehensive scorecards evaluating supplier performance, client service, and productivity. We specialize in measurement frameworks enabling data-driven decision making and continuous improvement while providing insights into cost savings potential.
  • Lean Six Sigma Consulting: Our Lean Six Sigma methodology combines waste elimination with statistical rigor to achieve operational excellence. We specialize in reducing costs, improving quality, and enhancing efficiency through systematic problem-solving. Our expert consultants enable firms to develop internal capability for sustainable improvement while delivering measurable results and identifying areas to maximize operational performance.
  • Lean Training: Supply Velocity’s training programs enable organizations to build internal expertise in continuous improvement methodologies. Our goal-oriented approach focuses on real-world applications, helping companies develop skills for operational improvements and sustainability. We offer specialized modules covering supply chain management, inventory optimization, and process improvement techniques to efficiently balance storage and maintenance requirements.

We have been helping Wisconsin organizations improve their logistics operations, execute supply chain planning, and streamline their processes since 1998.

Our expertise extends beyond local operations to include global supply chain optimization and risk management across diverse industry segments. To date, we have helped more than 170 clients implement over 400 projects across a broad spectrum of business sectors, including:

  • Service Businesses
  • Manufacturing
  • Distribution & Warehousing
  • Hospitals & Healthcare
  • Retail

Consider these points:

> 95% of our sales come from referrals – satisfied clients

> 90% of new clients begin with an Assessment

> 80% of Assessments result in a project; Assessment provides significant value

> On average, each client invites us back for 4 projects. Results consistently achieved

We can help your business on a service fee basis to be leveraged as a strategic member of the management team or on a project basis, where our projects are clearly defined in scope, duration, and investment. In the latter scenario, if we don’t achieve the cost savings we defined in our Assessment based on current trend analysis and requirement evaluation, we will return your investment.

As a trusted consulting partner, we guarantee measurable results for every project we undertake through our software-enhanced delivery approach. Your return is Guaranteed!
