Case Study
One of the world’s leading producers of software for the management of business processes, developing solutions that facilitate effective data processing and information flow across organizations.
Project Scope
- We advised a multinational software company that develops software solutions to manage business operations and customer relationships.
- As the global economy drives change in the area of sustainability, companies need to adapt their procurement processes to circular economy (CE) and CO2-reduced processes.
- MSC was tasked with analysing the investment potential in circular economy and determining its impact on the client’s procurement processes and software offerings.
Our Approach
- As a first step, we conducted broad market research to assess the general investment potential of CE.
- Subsequently, the team analysed goals and objectives for procurement organizations across different industries in order to identify critical CE-related KPIs.
- Finally, based on the learnings of both earlier phases, we developed a use case for a specific industry/company to elaborate on prior findings.
Final Deliverable
- The final deliverables we presented to the client were a written report and a presentation.
- The presentation included an in-depth analysis of the role that circular economy plays in procurement and how this role can be integrated into our client’s software offerings.
- The report provided a detailed competitor analysis of the CE landscape.
- In conclusion, we provided a shortlist of “Quick-Wins” that the client could implement immediately.
