Case 01 · Automotive manufacturing
An automotive manufacturer adds six points of gross margin in 12 months.
The challenge
Sales were steady, but gross margin was stuck at 18%. Responsibilities overlapped, too many decisions waited at the top, and rework and avoidable costs were absorbing the gains.
Our approach
- LeadCompany targets anchored to gross margin, with every leader’s priorities tied to the same number.
- AlignRoles, reporting and decisions reviewed against strategy; bottlenecks, duplicated effort and rework removed from how work moves.
- OvercomeChanges put into practice alongside the team, with a practical scorecard so problems surface early.
The impact
+6 pts
Gross profit margin
On the same sales, every point of margin flows to gross profit. As an illustration, on $10M of revenue six points equals $600,000 a year.
