Materials are usually by far the biggest cost item in any manufacturing business, but often many elements of the total material cost profile are not as well managed as they should, or could be.
Poor inventory control, lack of stock accuracy, higher than planned scrap rates, low inventory turns, excess and obsolete material, excessive logistics costs and high unit price all leading to a total cost of materials which restrains the business from achieving its full profitability potential.
