United States Cost To Serve Consulting

Key Challenges We Address

Optimizing Cost Transparency Across Complex Supply Chains

  • US businesses face rising supply chain costs, with logistics and distribution now accounting for up to one-third of total product expenses.
  • By mapping detailed cost drivers, YCP delivers transparency, equipping clients to make data-driven decisions that optimize spend across their supply network.

Balancing Service Levels with Profitability Pressures

  • Many organizations struggle to maintain high service levels as margin pressures increase, often providing costly services that erode profits.
  • YCP assesses true service costs per customer segment, helping firms align offerings to financial goals while protecting key client relationships.

Overcoming Data Silos to Enable Strategic Decision-Making

  • Fragmented data systems hinder cost-to-serve analysis, making it hard for teams to identify margin leaks and prioritize value-adding activities.
  • Working cross-functionally, YCP streamlines data integration, unlocking actionable insights that support strategic cost reduction and process improvement.

Managing Customer and Product Complexity for Sustainable Growth

  • A broad customer and SKU base in the US adds inventory, warehousing, and fulfillment costs, limiting scalability and efficiency.
  • Through granular margin analysis, YCP identifies unprofitable segments, guiding clients to rationalize portfolios for sustainable, profitable growth.
