Description
Production Planning for Management Consultants & Business Analysts
A practical guide on how to do analyses during consulting projects
What is the aim of this presentation?
Consulting firms are hired very often to help with Supply Chain and Production. During such projects, you will quite often have to look at the production planning and optimize it. Optimizing production planning will require a good understanding of what drives production capacity, as well as how production can impact the costs in the whole supply chain. In this presentation, I will teach how to perform fast and efficiently different types of analyses related to production planning.
In the presentation you will learn the following things:
1. What the production capacity depends on and how to estimate it
2. How to find optimal production batches for different products in Excel that will minimize costs in the whole supply chain
3. How to plan production capacity for the future
4. How and when to use different methods for production planning
I will also explain basic terms like production batch, optimal production batch, batch sequence, OEE, capacity, utilization, bottlenecks, and many more.
This presentation is based on my 15 years of experience as a consultant in top consulting firms and as a Board Member responsible for strategy, performance improvement, and turn-arounds in the biggest firms from Retail, FMCG, SMG, B2B, and services sectors that I worked for. I have carried or supervised over 90 different performance improvement projects in different industries that generated in total 2 billion of additional EBITDA.
