Supply Chain Consultants

SCCG is a UK supply chain consultancy that helps organisations reduce cost-to-serve, improve service and design supply chains that scale. Owned and led by its Directors, SCCG has completed more than 700 projects across 50 countries, covering logistics network design, warehouse operations, supply chain systems and AI-enabled decision making.
Supply Chain Management is the strategic coordination of business functions within a company with the aim of achieving the most efficient movement and storage of goods from point of origin to point of consumption.

Modern Supply Chains are often highly complex, and involve intricate organisation and optimisation, sometimes requiring the maintenance and management of third parties within the supply chain.

How can we help?

At SCCG, our supply chain consultants transform supply chain challenges into growth opportunities through our expert supply chain consultancy services.

The complete integration of the supply cycle requires an understanding of the complete process. Understanding the material flows, where the material is at any time, and possible choke points and problem spots benefit not only the supplier/ shipper but also the logistics provider by maximising the use of resources.

Our tailored solutions ensure comprehensive optimisation across all supply chain functions, achieving maximum efficiency and profitability.

Some key supply chain consultancy services

Warehouse Optimisation — End-to-end review of how goods flow through your business, identifying where cost, inventory and service can be improved together rather than traded against each other.

Cost-to-Serve Modelling — Attributing true cost to each customer, product and route, which routinely exposes loss-making lines that gross margin reporting hides.

Logistics Consulting — Planning and controlling the movement and storage of goods, from transport routing to distribution network design.

Inventory Modelling and Optimisation — Defining stocking policies by SKU and location so inventory sits where it earns its cost.

International Supply Chain — Structuring cross-border flows, customs and freight forwarder management for businesses trading internationally.
