Navigating Cost Reduction in Supply Chains Without Stifling Growth
Cutting costs in supply chains is a top priority for businesses in 2024, but achieving these reductions without affecting long-term growth remains a significant challenge. According to a recent report by Boston Consulting Group, a staggering 83% of global executives failed to meet their initial targets for cost savings, revealing the complexity and difficulty in sustaining these reductions over time.
