Operations & Supply Chain Management

  • Technology
  • software
  • consulting

From strategy to shopfloor: we combine consulting, operational implementation, and digital solutions into one integrated end-to-end offering for manufacturing companies.

Complex challenges in manufacturing processes and logistics structures are today a strategic core issue. Unstable supply chains, volatile markets, and rising complexity make production and supply chain performance a direct lever for revenue, costs, and resilience.

P3 has accompanied OEMs, suppliers, and industrial companies across sectors for over 25 years through product ramp-ups, supplier development, supply security, task-force management, and relocations. From idea to implementation, we offer a holistic, individual end-to-end solution — creating transparency, speed, and sustainable results along the entire value chain.

Why operations & supply chain must be rethought today.

> 80%
of critical problems arise during product ramp-up, at sub-suppliers, or on the shopfloor.
3x
higher complexity through global N-tier supply chains.
> 50%
lack of transparency across supply chains and production performance.
40%
of risks are identified too late without digital end-to-end visibility or early warning systems.

Strategy. Implementation. Digital Impact.

From the first idea to stable series production: P3 structures industrialisation along clearly defined phases, manages projects through KPI-based governance, and takes responsibility in critical implementation phases — through to a secured handover into series production.

+ 35%

Industrialisation Setup

Structuring phases, milestones, and project logic including definition of KPIs and clear responsibilities.

Project Steering & KPIs

KPI-based project management with transparent status tracking, clear governance, and defined escalation logic.

Ramp-up Execution

Operational steering during ramp-up, coordination of suppliers, and securing quality and capacity on-site.

Real-time Reporting

Transparency on progress, maturity, and risks through structured reports and KPI dashboards in real time.
P3 stabilises supply chains along a clearly structured approach: from evaluation of the supplier network through targeted stabilisation measures to sustainable KPI-based monitoring — for secured supply and robust delivery performance.

+ 40%

Increased supply security through structured supplier management, targeted measure steering, and continuous monitoring of critical KPIs.

360° Risk Assessment

Holistic assessment and prioritisation of risks in the supplier network including identification of critical bottlenecks.

Supplier Stabilisation

Implementation of targeted measures for supplier enablement and sustainable stabilisation of critical supply chains.

Ramp-up & Supply Security

Securing ramp-up and series production through active steering of capacity, quality, and delivery capability.

Risk Monitoring & KPI

Central KPI monitoring and early warning systems for early identification of deviations and risks.
P3 stabilises critical situations through structured task-force engagements: from rapid analysis through targeted immediate measures to sustainable anchoring of stable processes — with clear governance, operational on-site implementation, and transparent KPI management.

< 48h

Task-force teams on-site through standardised setups, experienced experts, and well-coordinated international structures.

360° Factory Check

Holistic analysis of production, logistics, and quality to identify critical deviations and fields of action.

Task Force Execution

Rapid implementation of measures on-site with clear responsibilities and direct management at the supplier.

Lean-Agile Methods

Use of Kanban, root-cause analyses, and feedback loops for structured and sustainable problem-solving.

KPI-based Steering

Transparent steering of all measures via standardised reports, status tracking, and clear progress measurement.
P3 improves quality and performance along a structured approach: from data-based analysis and bottleneck identification through targeted implementation to standardised rollout — with a clear focus on quality, cost, and delivery reliability.

+ 25%

Improvement in performance through systematic bottleneck analysis, targeted measure implementation, and transparent KPI management along the value chain.

Value Stream Analysis

Structured analysis of processes and value streams to identify bottlenecks and prioritised fields of action.

Quality Stabilisation

Sustainable improvement of product and process quality through structured root-cause analysis, clear measures, and stable anchoring on the shopfloor.
Implementation of defined measures on the shopfloor including workshops, training, and close coordination with all stakeholders.

KPI-based Reporting

Transparent steering via standardised reports, weekly plans, and measurable progress tracking
P3 connects shopfloor, supply chain, and systems into a seamless data foundation: from real-time data capture through simulation to AI-driven analysis — for transparent, manageable, and predictive operations along the entire value chain.

100%

Transparency across production and supply chain through system-independent data capture, integration of shopfloor and supplier data, and real-time analysis.

Shopfloor Data Integration

Capture and consolidation of machine, process, and quality data independent of manufacturers and existing systems.

Supply Chain Visibility

Real-time transparency on suppliers, stocks, and risks through X360 Supplier Radar and integrated data platforms.

Simulation & Planning

Securing layouts, material flows, and capacities through data-based simulation and scenario analyses.

AI-driven Use Cases

Development and integration of AI applications such as early warning systems, risk analyses, and automated KPI evaluation.
