Are manufacturers prioritising investment in digital capability and Industry 4.0 technologies?
Vendigital has vast experience of working in partnership with industrial manufacturing clients to create more agile operations and transform their cost bases. By focusing on productivity, operational cost and performance we can help you to implement stepped changes that really make a difference.
Our industrial manufacturing consultants have extensive experience, ensuring we have a deep understanding of your challenges and how to achieve your cost transformation goals. Whether it’s the increased use of automation and emerging technology mixed with using data from legacy systems, the need to build agile, resilient and future-proofed supply chains or the pressure to reduce carbon footprint without radically increasing costs, we understand the challenges faced and know what it takes to deliver long-lasting results.
By combining industrial manufacturing consulting expertise and our proprietary digital platform, we deploy data-driven insights to deliver quantifiable operational cost savings and embed cost analytics capability to enable clients to achieve efficiencies on an ongoing basis.
Whether you’re looking to make longer-term strategic cost decisions or drive operational efficiencies at pace, we work as part of your team to achieve measurable and sustainable cost benefits.

Looking for an industry expert?
We help firms drive cost efficiencies across their complex operations. Our team of industrial manufacturing consultants, drawn from the sector directly, understand the industry and are focused on tackling its unique challenges, finding effective solutions to overcome them.
We combine multi-disciplinary consulting expertise with our proprietary digital platform to deploy data-driven operational insights to embed measurable and sustainable cost benefits across your business.
We do this across:
We’re focused on driving cost transformation through identifying and addressing the key strategic, performance, operational and cost levers across your manufacturing operations. These can include building agility into the supply chain to minimise disruption and increase margins; strategic sourcing activities to find the right suppliers, in the right geographies at the right cost; or optimising manufacturing processes to achieve efficiency across your complex end-to-end operations and reduce internal costs. In addition, we can we benchmark costs to determine ‘should cost’ and assess the value in making vs buying parts to optimise production and drive out cost. Using financial modelling across your product mix we are able to determine how each product in your portfolio is performing, giving you the visibility to inform strategic decisions around which products to grow and invest in.
We don’t just advise you on what needs to be done, we work with you to execute the plan achieving quick win cost savings and long-lasting strategic cost efficiencies.
