Client Challenge
One of the largest U.S. government agencies – with over $8 billion in spending on goods and services – wanted to reduce its spending levels and explore new business opportunities.
A Stamford-led consulting team, with the help of McKinsey supply chain experts, identified more than $100 million in savings over the first year in several supply categories. In addition, the team brought private-sector practices to the government procurement process, resulting in a reinvigorated organization that was able to realize savings much more quickly than in the past.
Through a series of workshops, the team also identified opportunities – and the appropriate software partners – for the agency to launch a global, web-based aggregation business to combine volume with other agencies and private companies.
Practice Support
McKinsey's Operations practice serves clients in multiple industries on all facets of operations, including product development, manufacturing, supply chain management, and purchasing and supply management.
"Being close to operations informs our strategic thinking because we understand how far possibilities can be stretched. I find the results of this work extremely gratifying."
