The Swedish Chamber of Commerce in China is happy to invite you to join our online webinar event on:Cost Reduction and Efficiency Improvement in Non-production Areas/非生产领域的降本增效

Introduction/课程介绍

With the market environment getting more competitive, cost reduction and efficiency improvement has become a major focus. In manufacturing industry, cost reduction activities in the direct areas (production activities) are mature and clear-focused, such as quality improvement, lead time reduction, raw material cost reduction, etc. However, it is often difficult to start with in indirect areas (non-production). Many departments choose to participate by reducing office supplies, which not only has little effect but also adds inconvenience. In fact, cost reduction and efficiency improvement has huge potential in the indirect areas. If difficulties such as finding a start point, quantifying the result, and lack of tools are removed, companies can easily achieve considerable benefits.

在竞争日益激烈的市场环境下，降本增效已成为企业的重要关注点。在制造行业，直接领域（生产加工活动）的各类降本增效活动已非常成熟且明确，如质量改善、交期缩短、原材料成本降低等。然而，在间接领域（非生产加工活动）开展降本增效活动却往往无从下手，很多部门只能从减少办公用品消耗入手，不仅收效甚微还会给正常工作带来不便。其实，间接领域有很大降本增效的潜力，若能解决找不到切入点、成果难以量化、缺少工具方法等现实难题，企业将轻松收获额外的可观收益。

This information session will discuss the common barriers of cost reduction and efficiency improvement in the indirect areas, share the approach, methods, and successful experiences for this topic, and help companies expand the scope of cost reduction and efficiency improvement. Corporate leaders planning to carry out cost reduction and efficiency improvement activities in indirect areas are welcome to participate, including but not limited to department heads of R&D, quality, supply chain, sales support, procurement, finance, HR, admin, and the general managers.

本次活动旨在探讨间接领域降本增效的困难，分享在间接领域开展降本增效活动的思路、方法和成功经验，助力企业扩展降本增效活动范围。欢迎计划在间接领域开展降本增效活动的企业相关人员参加，包括但不限于研发、质量管理、供应链、销售支持、采购、财务、人事、行政等部门负责人和企业总经理等。
