Multi-Location Manufacturer/Fabricator Requires Restructuring
This growing company was looking to lower their overhead cost by centralizing and automating their back office.
Rento Associates reduced front office staff requirements by 75% in two locations and left the third location unchanged with the implementation of an industry specific centralized customer service software system and employee training. The system also recognized manufacturing capacities in all locations which increased corporate manufacturing efficiency and lowered overtime demands. Several staff members were retrained as commission based sales representatives and were able to increase the company?s sales revenues by 15% in their first year.
After the implementation of a centralized office, Rento Associates focused on increasing net profits. By modernizing the manufacturing facility with CMC and laser cutters, and implementing standard operating procedures in manufacturing, a net production gain of 22% was realized in the first six months. Overall COGS were also lowered by 20% by importing standard raw materials directly from international manufacturers.
