Our Services For
Operations Executives
ElevatIQ services for Operations Executives include business process re-engineering, documentation, and improvement; change and project management; post-merger integration, ERP, CPM, and FP&A selection and implementation; and managed services.
Operations Transformation
Our Operations Transformation services start with an assessment of the current pain points with the current systems and existing operations processes, metrics, and technologies. The assessment results in building high-level as-is and to-be processes and change management and process reengineering recommendations. Depending upon the changes required, the changes could be as small as a process or data changes. Or a complete process and technology transformation.
Operations Planning
This service helps in optimizing sales and operations, whether your current issues might be related to demand forecasting, supply planning, or transportation planning. The service starts with the analysis and assessment of your current KPI and issues, followed by a root cause analysis, and then finally, a systemic change approach, whether the changes may be related to the processes or data.
Operations Technology Architecture
This service helps build operations technology architecture depending upon the number of systems involved in different areas of operations planning such as S&OP, TMS, WMS, OMS, or FMS. This service ensures the process boundaries of different systems, including master data governance workflows, and how all the systems would work together to deliver on the process and planning goals as per desired KPIs.
Inventory, Warehousing, and Logistics Optimization
This service helps with inventory, warehousing, and logistics optimization whether you are struggling with inventory excess and obsolescence issues, whether you are trying to improve any KPIs such as dock-to-stock ratio or inventory turns. This service takes a comprehensive approach to analyze your current warehouse design, material flow, and network design. And finally recommends any changes, whether they might be system or process related, to meet the efficiency goals.
Operations Software Selection
This service helps in selecting different operations software, including buy vs. build decisions. The process starts with setting clear boundaries of the process and interaction flow for the desired component, then building requirement and solution matrix to evaluate different solutions, including RFP development, vendor negotiations, and the voting process for the selection.
Managed Services
This service provides most operations tech stack support services for a fixed monthly fee, whether you need help with support with your ERP, MES, WMS, or TMS systems, as well as with master data governance. This service is also very useful when you need consulting expertise at manageable, fixed monthly costs.
