How we work with you

Results, not just better processes.

When discussing about Planning Excellence & Sustainability, companies want results, not just better processes or tools. With the right ambition, it is possible to make improvements that truly transform the performance of your organization and create even more fulfilling roles for your planning experts. We firmly believe in a “together” approach: we can act as coaches to support you in tackling specific problems or we create blended project teams to infuse business & functional knowledge and get things done.

And where does all that knowledge come from? Everyone at Statera has played major roles in improving business performance through successful transformational projects. They all had senior positions at well-known companies across industries. They will use their real-world experience to ensure your people, business processes and technology are fully aligned and integrated right across your organization.

They will coach, guide and inspire your people to drive change throughout your organization, which results in a culture of continuous improvement and innovation. We promise a practical, no-nonsense approach without using consultants’ jargon, focusing on simplifying complexity throughout your business and getting tangible results.

Advisory

Our people have experienced good – and sometimes bad – things during planning projects. That’s true, we don’t have everything in our hands and we sometimes make wrong decisions, but we get stronger and can fall back on experiences.

By now, we know well how to approach planning projects, from an isolated inventory diagnostic to a full-blown transformation of supply chain, financial and commercial functions, processes or technologies.

We only propose our services if we believe that we can add value to your company, so that means we’ll come with the required experience. Advisory projects require project teams with the right seniority and that’s one of our differentiators… in line with our core value “Mastery”, it’s very close to our heart. And it’s exactly that mastery that enables us to propose solutions that fit the identity of your company.
