Production Systems
Mechanical engineering faces very specific challenges:
- Global markets, partially customers with a strong negotiating power
- Global competition, industry consolidation, emergence of suppliers from emerging countries
- Necessity for innovation on the one hand, and for permanent cost optimization, on the other hand
- Increasing complexity, increasing risks, and overall, too little profitability
Oliver Wyman has more than 20 years of experience in restructuring and redesigning mechanical engineering companies to profitable growth. More than 70% of leading mechanical and plant engineering companies are our customers.
On the restructuring side, we have specific experience in comprehensive restructuring, the reduction of production and overhead costs, in process optimization, in sourcing and reorganization.
On the growth side, our expertise lies mainly in the execution of comprehensive growth programs, the expansion of the downstream service business, sales, value pricing, the development of new markets, and Mergers and Acquisitions.
