THE VALUE CHAIN

Recognizing that supply chain optimization is only part of the solution, the Fulton program proactively directs its resources toward improving the client’s value chain – or those activities in addition to supply, that add value enterprise-wide. This approach provides our clients with additional opportunities for strategic differentiation and thus, competitive advantage.

TCA: Transaction Cost Analysis

In order to fully understand each client's unique value chain, a comprehensive transaction cost analysis is conducted prior to every implementation. This study is used to identify existing operational workflows, the cost of each workflow, and the total cost of all the workflows included within the client's order fulfillment cycle. This total cost serves as the baseline for transaction cost reduction savings.
