Cost Optimization in Maintenance, Repair & Operating Supply (MRO) with ERA Group
For organizations in the manufacturing sector, operational supplies are the lifeblood of the business.
Depending on the business, this can include factory consumables, chemicals and industrial gases, lab supplies, MRO supplies, and packaging.
An organization’s ability to control the total manufacturing costs of these supplies — direct manufacturing costs and variable costs — is vital to an organization’s financial health.
ERA can assess expenses to find manufacturing cost-savings opportunities. We help determine if incumbent suppliers are offering the most advantageous pricing for operational supplies, applying years of experience and supplier knowledge to improve companies’ cash flow.
Cost Categories
Chemicals
With a variety of chemical manufacturers and chemical supply companies providing the raw materials and products needed to support manufacturing efforts and operations, how does a business know if their chemical supply costs are truly competitive?
ERA Group works with companies to review their costs in expense categories including chemicals.
Uniforms, Workwear & Linens
For some businesses uniforms and linen are an important item of expenditure.
ERA Group reviews client expenses to assess savings opportunities in this category whilst providing a similar or better service that meets both employer and employees requirements.
Operating Supply
Factory consumables must be replaced regularly as part of the manufacturing process. Controlling the total manufacturing costs of these supplies — direct manufacturing costs and variable manufacturing costs — is vital to an organisation’s financial health, as it the monitoring of the major trends and development on the market.
ERA Group supports businesses in providing their specialist knowledge to support their operations and assess cost-savings opportunities.
Maintenance & Repair
Maintenance, repair and operations (MRO) supplies and services are indispensable to routine operations but not many companies have the time and resources to follow market trends and prices for all segments.
ERA Group helps businesses to maximise their efficiency and spending in the MRO cost category.
