Some recent cases: When the world's largest food group sought to determine cost-to-serve at the customer and product level in the nation's largest frozen foods DSD (direct store delivery) system, Quantalyst Consulting, LLC was engaged. How did we win this account? Try cost effectiveness, an emphasis on existing systems and a bulletproof methodology. See the case here. A leader in the production of high value-added downstream food and technical-grade products based on phosphoric acid sought to comprehensively quantify its pricing strategy across all customers. Quantalyst Consulting, LLC provided the price analytics to objectively compare the true 'net net' or 'pocket price' of each account. See the case here. A leading hydraulics manufacturer saw its improved utilization being 'priced away' as its product margin reporting system encouraged sales to give away margin gains. Three primary issues were identified as issues to resolve; 1) the need to move to a replacement value depreciation rate; 2) the implementation of capacity measures for product costing purposes, and; 3) the isolation of the fixed and variable cost components in overhead. Quantalyst Consulting, LLC implemented a costing methodology across more than 100 work centers, integrating the work into the client's existing ERP. See the case here. A worldwide industrial player saw its primary competitor go public and became extremely concerned with the apparent margins that the competitor was able to claim.
