SG & A Opportunities are “Huge”

  As one of the largest expense pools for any company, SG&A
  represents a key opportunity to improve bottom- line performance.
  In fact, a 5% reduction in SG&A for companies in the S&P 500
  would result in an average operating profit increase of ~$183M.11
                                Source: Kaiser Associates analysis based on FY07 results for the S&P 500




    SG&A opportunity is typically $70 million per billion in revenue
                                                                         Source: The Hackett Group and Standard & Poor’s




But…despite the opportunity most American companies
     have been ineffective in managing overhead

…however, the challenges is not “what”…

•   Still, the biggest challenge of SG&A optimization
    is not in recognizing its potential…
•   But many companies historically:
     – Struggle to identify specific SG&A optimization
       opportunities…
     – Are insufficiently “targeted” in their efforts, instead
       settling on across-the-board spending cuts,
       automating bad processes, etc.
     – Don’t have a systematic and flexible approach to
       SG & A optimization…
     – Don’t understand the implications/connections
       between SG & A and strategy execution…




    …rather the challenge is in “how” to optimize SG & A
                             costs
                                                                                                                                                                                   7

What is LeanSigma?
LeanSigma is the combination of two powerful business process
improvement methods that came out of the manufacturing sector in
the 1980’s.
In recent years it has been developed and successfully deployed in
the service sector to include banking, retail, healthcare, staffing and
financial services.
    WHAT DOES LEAN MEAN?
    Lean is the elimination of all forms of non value added work from
    the customers perspective (waste) in business transactions and
    processes


    WHAT DOES SIX SIGMA MEAN?
    Six Sigma is a statistical based methodology used to eliminate
    defects (errors or variations) in business transactions and
    processes

Why LeanSigma?

LeanSigma incorporates the
principle of Lean’s simplified
flow and speed to increase
business process velocity…

…and incorporates Six
Sigma’s approach to
eliminating errors, variation
and instability…

…the combined tools,
principles and methods of
LeanSigma attacks the
“hidden factory” of complexity
in your business

Time is the Underlying Measurement of
LeanSigma…




The key is to reduce end-to-end system and effort to “core value”
• Customer’s definition of “core value” provides a common lens to identify, prioritize and achieve both
  tactical cost reduction and strategic advantage – simultaneously
• Common element of time consumption allows for engagement and participation at every level in the
  organization
• Drives a rapid shift in paradigms by sifting “what we do” through a simple, common-sense filter
• Accelerates bottom-line and operational results which can be leveraged for growth

                                                                                                                                                                                   12

Core Value
Value is always defined from the customer’s
perspective

Value-Adding Activities
  Transform products or information into
  products and services the customer wants



Non-Value-Adding Activities
  Consume resources, but don't directly
  contribute to process or service




                                                                                                                                                                               13

Business Process Waste


    SG&A costs, or
 overhead, often are
 related to non-value
 added activities that
 can be eliminated or
  streamlined using
LeanSigma principles.

   – Rapid and collaborative approach… Analyze current SG&A…
     Identify opportunities… fact-based and data driven
• Focus on both functional opportunities and cross-functional
  opportunities
   – Some of the “fastest” improvements can be made vertically
     (functionally)
   – The biggest impact improvements are found horizontally (cross-
     functionally or end-to-end)

Using Lean Six Sigma for Fast Track SG&A Reductions

  • 3. SG & A Opportunities are “Huge” As one of the largest expense pools for any company, SG&A represents a key opportunity to improve bottom- line performance. In fact, a 5% reduction in SG&A for companies in the S&P 500 would result in an average operating profit increase of ~$183M.11 Source: Kaiser Associates analysis based on FY07 results for the S&P 500 SG&A opportunity is typically $70 million per billion in revenue Source: The Hackett Group and Standard & Poor’s But…despite the opportunity most American companies have been ineffective in managing overhead 3 © 2009 Guidon Performance Solutions, LLC.

  • 4. A Study by The Monitor Group found that most U.S. Companies have a Poor Record of Managing SG & A… Despite investments in productivity improvements, average SG & A spending as a percent of sales continues to increase Average Revenue and Overhead Spending U.S. Public Companies CAGR $4,000 Average Sales $3,500 Average Overhead Spending Average Sales 7.9% $3,000 $2,500 $MM $2,000 $1,500 $1,000 Average OH Spending 8.4% $500 $0 1992 1997 2002 Average Overhead Ratio 23.5% 22.5% 24.6% (Overhead/ Sales) Source: The Monitor Group 4 © 2009 Guidon Performance Solutions, LLC.

  • 7. …however, the challenges is not “what”… • Still, the biggest challenge of SG&A optimization is not in recognizing its potential… • But many companies historically: – Struggle to identify specific SG&A optimization opportunities… – Are insufficiently “targeted” in their efforts, instead settling on across-the-board spending cuts, automating bad processes, etc. – Don’t have a systematic and flexible approach to SG & A optimization… – Don’t understand the implications/connections between SG & A and strategy execution… …rather the challenge is in “how” to optimize SG & A costs 7 © 2009 Guidon Performance Solutions, LLC. All rights reserved. Guidon Performance Solutions is a licensee of LeanSigma®, a service mark of TBM Consulting Group.
  • 8. Improving SG & A requires focusing on both efficiency and effectiveness…simultaneously EFFICIENCY EFFECTIVENESS • Process costs Process quality • Productivity Supplier development/management • Cycle times Analytics • Technology application Value Stream Alignment • Cost per transaction Spend Management • Staffing Levels FTE allocation Examples: Examples: Cost as a % of spend % of suppliers comprising top 80% of spend FTEs per $1B of spend Total spend cost reduction as a % of spend # of POs processed per FTE Percent of spend under procurement PO processing cycle time management influence Staff time allocation by process Percent of procurement activity allocated to Cost as a % of spend vs suppliers decision support “Doing things right” “Doing the right things” 8 © 2009 Guidon Performance Solutions, LLC.

  • 10. What is LeanSigma? LeanSigma is the combination of two powerful business process improvement methods that came out of the manufacturing sector in the 1980’s. In recent years it has been developed and successfully deployed in the service sector to include banking, retail, healthcare, staffing and financial services. WHAT DOES LEAN MEAN? Lean is the elimination of all forms of non value added work from the customers perspective (waste) in business transactions and processes WHAT DOES SIX SIGMA MEAN? Six Sigma is a statistical based methodology used to eliminate defects (errors or variations) in business transactions and processes © 2009 Guidon Performance Solutions, LLC. All rights reserved. Guidon Performance Solutions is a licensee of LeanSigma®, a service mark of TBM Consulting Group. 10
  • 11. Why LeanSigma? LeanSigma incorporates the principle of Lean’s simplified flow and speed to increase business process velocity… …and incorporates Six Sigma’s approach to eliminating errors, variation and instability… …the combined tools, principles and methods of LeanSigma attacks the “hidden factory” of complexity in your business 11 © 2009 Guidon Performance Solutions, LLC. All rights reserved. Guidon Performance Solutions is a licensee of LeanSigma®, a service mark of TBM Consulting Group.
  • 12. Time is the Underlying Measurement of LeanSigma… The key is to reduce end-to-end system and effort to “core value” • Customer’s definition of “core value” provides a common lens to identify, prioritize and achieve both tactical cost reduction and strategic advantage – simultaneously • Common element of time consumption allows for engagement and participation at every level in the organization • Drives a rapid shift in paradigms by sifting “what we do” through a simple, common-sense filter • Accelerates bottom-line and operational results which can be leveraged for growth 12 © 2009 Guidon Performance Solutions, LLC. All rights reserved. Guidon Performance Solutions is a licensee of LeanSigma®, a service mark of TBM Consulting Group.
  • 13. Core Value Value is always defined from the customer’s perspective Value-Adding Activities Transform products or information into products and services the customer wants Non-Value-Adding Activities Consume resources, but don't directly contribute to process or service 13 © 2009 Guidon Performance Solutions, LLC. All rights reserved. Guidon Performance Solutions is a licensee of LeanSigma®, a service mark of TBM Consulting Group.
  • 14. Business Process Waste SG&A costs, or overhead, often are related to non-value added activities that can be eliminated or streamlined using LeanSigma principles. 14 © 2009 Guidon Performance Solutions, LLC. All rights reserved. Guidon Performance Solutions is a licensee of LeanSigma®, a service mark of TBM Consulting Group.
  • 15. … focus for SG & A Improvement with LeanSigma… End-to-End Time Reduction Identify and eliminate Procure to Pay (P2P) waste • Reduced invoice processing • Defects and loop-backs time from 44 days to minutes • Hand-offs • Increased FPY rate from 2% to 87% • Over-producing • Decreased error rate from 80% • Unnecessary to 0.7% processing • Increased cash discount $300K • Decisions in process • Reduced expenses of faxing, bank fees, postage and forms • Excess transportation $200K • Waiting Bottom Line = $1.6MM savings 15 © 2009 Guidon Performance Solutions, LLC.
