The Challenge
The customer, a world’s leading telecommunications equipment manufacturer, with more than 25 years in the market, providing voice and data solutions, from small office solution to carrier class infrastructure, was looking for installation material cost reduction. However, this cost reduction is affected directly by the constant change in demand and consumption forecast, the large diversity of components and manufacturers involved (BOM), pushing our customer to carry large inventory of material not necessarily related to its core business, generating overhead costs and cost of opportunity.
