Editorial Review: Product Description: For most supply chains, cost reduction is imperative to long-term survival. Yet identifying the costs that can be eliminated – and then doing so effectively – can prove impossible without the right method. This book introduces the same process the author has used to save companies like IBM, Kodak, and DuPont billions of dollars, simply by harnessing the knowledge of suppliers. Using real-life case studies and examples, the book takes readers step-by-step through the process, showing them how to move beyond negotiation and: * identify critical costs in the supply chain * measure secondary and tertiary costs * develop strategic options * reduce, change, or eliminate activities that produce costs * implement an action plan * verify the plan with cost monitors * continually improve and modify the process The book gives readers everything they need to implement this powerful system, and bring genuine and permanent savings to their company Book Description: For most supply chains, cost reduction is imperative to long-term survival.

 Rating:  - Proven process for cooperatively cutting costs with your suppliersAuthor Jimmy Anklesaria's "AIM & DRIVE" process is a method for reducing costs by working with your entire supply chain. You will learn how to assemble a cost-cutting initiative, how to bring your suppliers into the process and how to work with them to benefit mutually from cost reductions. Anklesaria's writing is a bit colloquial, but that means it reads easily, which offsets some of the necessary dryness of the process descriptions. The book has helpful worksheets plus samples of actual work from ... Read More Rating: - A helpful book for those dealing with controlling supply chain costsJimm Anklesaria has a method for managing cost in your supply chain. He has used this eight step program as a consultant and wants to share it with you. The purpose of this method is to work with your suppliers (or customers) to go after the big cost reducing opportunities. Simply trying to negotiate a lower price without fixing the reasons for the higher prices is of very limited usefulness. You can bully your suppliers for a few percentage points, but after that you are pushing them into financial ... Read More Rating: - The Aim and Drive process is brilliant!At long last a book on Supply Chain Cost Management that makes sense and a process that can be implemented by anyone. I enjoyed the author's free flowing style, the examples and clear logic. This process is not just for the big companies out there but for small and medium companies as well. Very clear and concise. Excellent book! Rating: - REDUCE COSTS WHERE IT REALLY MATTERS - YOUR SUPPLY CHAIN!When Jimmy Anklesaria lays out his proven approach to cost management, companies who have shown that it works - IBM, Motorola, Nortstrom, and HP, among others, all agree - this simple method works, and pays off big! Why work on the slimmest of lean opportunity areas - the fractions - when you can hit the big bucks and make a real difference in profitability! You know you're competing with global producers, and you need every advantage you can get, and fast!
