Cost Optimization in Maintenance, Repair & Operating Supply (MRO) with Expense Reduction Analysts
For organizations in the manufacturing sector, operational supplies are the lifeblood of the business.
Depending on the business, this can include factory consumables, chemicals & industrial gases, lab supplies, MRO supplies, and packaging.
An organization’s ability to control the total manufacturing costs of these supplies – direct manufacturing costs, and variable costs – is vital to an organization’s financial health.
ERA can assess expenses to find manufacturing cost-savings opportunities. We help determine if incumbent suppliers are offering the most advantageous pricing for operational supplies, applying years of experience, and supplier knowledge to improve companies’ cash flow.
