Imaoka-style SCM Consulting Case Study Collection [*Explanation Handbook Available*]
A collection of case studies from four industries for consulting requested from my bestselling book "Supply Chain Management."
From my bestselling book "Supply Chain Management," I present a collection of case studies on consulting in four industries. Inventory reduction leads to opportunity loss, and preventing opportunity loss results in excess inventory. According to the traditional management science of "probability and statistics," inventory reduction and opportunity loss prevention cannot coexist. "What is inventory?" Improvements aimed at cost reduction and efficiency often lead to increased inventory, limiting profitability improvements for the overall optimization. By focusing not only on cost reduction through efficiency improvements but also on inventory, we view excess inventory and stockouts as the same problem in a holistic manner. Consulting case studies in four industries: [Contents] ■ Production innovation in the automotive parts industry ■ Market expansion strategies in the beverage and food industry ■ Profitability improvement in the electronic components industry ■ System design prior to ERP implementation in the chemical manufacturing industry *For more details, please download the PDF or contact us.

The aim is to eliminate waste in the operation system and the power system! "Balancing inventory reduction and preventing stockouts," "energy conservation," "new products and new businesses," and "developing people who are passionate about proactive reform" are challenging endeavors for many companies. The reasons hindering results are believed to be the proliferation of numerous projects targeting short-term outcomes, such as partial improvements that do not address the root issues, easy IT implementations like ERP that overlook the overall picture, balancers for rotating shafts that do not consider rotational friction resistance and eccentric centrifugal force compensation, and imitation of competitors. Our consultant, Zenjiro Imaoka, has acquired patents for technologies that suppress rotational axis wobble for energy conservation. He has solved many technical problems in mechanics and IT at an engineering company, developed management systems, and gained experience at a global consulting firm, mastering management analysis and prescriptions. Through numerous publications and consulting experiences, he has synthesized "management and mechanics" through management education in MBA and MOT. Based on MOT management education, we provide consulting for business diagnostics and strategic proposals, system design, and project support for new products and new businesses. We are available nationwide, primarily in the Kanto region, so please feel free to consult with us.
