© Deloitte Consulting, 2003 - 5 - Consulting Project Profiles Manufacturing Company X MCX engaged Deloitte to develop a strategic materials sourcing process in their organization. The goal was to reduce spending on direct materials by $4.2M and gain a competitive advantage from improved procurement. Deloitte and MCX undertook a six-month effort using our Strategic Sourcing Methodology. Key project activities included defining material requirements, analyzing the capabilities of the supply market, developing an evaluation model for suppliers, and negotiating supplier contracts. Deloitte Consulting partnered with FCY to custom develop their next generation clearing system for financial products, a 500 person-year, $100M effort. The first steps of the project were to revise FCY’s existing Systems Development Life Cycle process to better suit such a large-scale endeavor and to develop a roadmap for the project. The custom developed application consists of 680 screens and 210 batch programs Project Description The strategic sourcing process implemented at MCX has led to $5.7M savings in the first year. Deloitte recommended process enhancements to further improve and helped MCX institute a tracking mechanism to ensure sustained cost savings.
