Multi-year, multi-stage projects require equipment that must be purchased long in advance because of its complexity, size, or volume. These are the trickiest purchases because they drive the total time and cost of the project by:
- Forcing early decisions on key technologies and suppliers
- Influencing design and engineering of other program components
- Requiring supplier partnerships without competitive bidding
- Influencing the competitiveness of the supply market (in some cases)
Boston Strategies International(BSI) helped one of the world’s largest wind power operators procure installation vessels, turbines, foundations, and towers for a large offshore wind farm. Our team of specialists led teams dedicated to:
- Supply chain planning, including simulations and scenarios
- Category sourcing plans
- I.P. protection safeguards
- Capital and operating budgeting
- Organizational and implementation planning
The results were life-changing for this mega-project:
- 13% reduction in budgeted capital and operating expenses
- Negative financial returns became positive
- Approval of Financial Investment Decision (FID)
