A large integrated metals player digitally transforms to put customers first. BCG worked with an industrial metal client to develop a seamless value chain that used digital and advanced analytics to manage complexity and minimize uncertainty in its services processes. The transformation set the stage for a 10-point improvement in service levels, a rise in EBITDA of 2 to 4 points, and reductions in inventory levels of four to ten days.
A diversified mine operator reinvents its marketing and sales strategy. With BCG’s help, the client revamped its entire approach to marketing and sales by developing local sales forces for products in nonliquid markets where the company had a smaller market share, while also building a commodity-trading business for products that had reached full liquidity in the market. The estimated bottom-line impact was more than $1 billion in annual pretax benefit.
A major steelmaker transforms to supercharge its earnings. BCG helped the client revive margins damaged by overcapacity and correct a siloed corporate culture. We launched a comprehensive transformation program that included improvement projects for mill production, sales, service efficiency, purchasing, and administration. The work resulted in €2 billion in increases of identified potential earnings, €540 million in top-line improvements, and €1.5 billion in cost efficiencies.
Teck Resources Limited uses data science to optimize operations and transform the entire business. BCG worked with the mining company to harness key insights from its wealth of operational data using machine learning—a program called RACE21—to improve processing efficiency. The program has not only allowed Teck to reduce costs but also to minimize the company’s impact on the environment. Read the full story in Wired.
