This PPT slide, part of the 97-slide Strategic Cost Reduction Training PowerPoint presentation, outlines the SCR (Strategic Cost Reduction) approach, detailing a structured methodology aimed at achieving both immediate and longer-term cost savings. It is divided into 4 distinct phases, each with specific objectives and timelines.

Phase 0, titled "Scoping & Planning," spans 5-6 weeks. This phase focuses on developing a portfolio of hypotheses related to cost reduction, providing a rough sizing of potential savings. The emphasis here is on identifying key areas for further exploration.

Phase 1, "Assessment," lasts 8 weeks. It involves validating the initial hypotheses through detailed analysis. This phase aims to refine the portfolio into a more actionable set of recommendations based on proven or disproven insights. The goal is to create a solid foundation for the subsequent planning phase.

Phase 2, "Plan & Roadmap," is a 3-week process where the refined recommendations are organized into a coherent sequence. This sequence considers dependencies, priorities, and the feasibility of implementation. It’s about creating a clear path forward for executing the identified cost-saving initiatives.

Phase 3, labeled "Implement," is still to be determined. This phase will focus on launching implementation teams and executing the planned initiatives. The slide emphasizes the importance of aligning resources and establishing effective communication channels throughout the process.

Overall, the SCR approach is designed to be systematic and thorough, ensuring that organizations not only achieve short-term reductions, but also lay the groundwork for sustainable savings. This structured methodology can be particularly appealing to decision-makers looking for a comprehensive strategy to manage costs effectively.
