Kendall Advisors partners with LeanDNA for working capital improvement and demand pull conversion projects. The LeanDNA solution set includes analysis tools which speed evaluation of large and complex data sets from ERP systems. It allows us to quickly engage key staff such as planner / buyers. Key offerings include:
- Rapid Procurement Improvement – An analysis platform which helps uncover the root causes of too much and too little inventory. It also tracks tactical actions to address the causes.
- Demand Pull Conversion – Most companies can realize significant benefits by implemening the right level of demand pull systems (by no means should all items necessarily be on kanbans for instance). The tool highlights the greatest opportunities and helps organize implementation focused on particular production lines and/or product families.
- Remote Coaching / Capability Extension – The platform allows us to effectively coach team members, managers, and executives without incurring the cost of frequent travel. While supporting existing staff to higher levels of performance, it also allows cost efficient addition of deep expertise to your teams
- Planning and Procurement Outsourcing – We are also pioneering a new model of capability driven outsourcing with LeanDNA. Many manufacturing sites have difficulties developing and retaining experts in planning and procurement. This model allows companies to tap planning and procurement expertise remotely which can in turn help them develop better internal capabilities.
The LeanDNA platform is built on SaaS technology which can be quickly implemented (much like Salesforce CRM). The link to the LeanDNA site is here.
