Comparing Economic Stability Across Multiple Periods
Situation: A large number of additives were procured, but a small number of them
accounted for most of the usage
Cumulative Usage, %
Cumulative additives / concentrates volume percentage
vs. cumulative number of additive / concentrate (total
additives and concentrates used = 414)
EXAMPLE
317 additives

Approach taken: A five step consolidation approach was taken
Review and
identify additive /
concentrate types
Exclude customer
and supplier
proprietary additives
/ concentrates
Consolidate
“similar” additives
and concentrates
Ensure customer
acceptance of alternate
formulations (if
needed)
Introduce alternate
additives and
concentrates
Results:
• 40-50% reduction in number of SKUs in certain major categories
• Significant savings achieved by consolidating SKUs and suppliers base
• Complexity of procurement process reduced
