The Royal Mint
As part of its drive to make significant improvements in performance, the Royal Mint engaged Knox D'Arcy to help it deliver significant financial benefits through increased sales, stream-lining overhead structures and productivity gains throughout the business.
The Challenge
The Royal Mint needed a partner to help make a step-change in performance across procurement, sales, and manufacturing. Internal initiatives were not delivering at the pace required.
Our Solution
The Programme was structured into three modules: Procurement (consolidating suppliers and spend, introducing supplier management systems), Sales (new structure and product design process for targeting opportunities), and Manufacturing (productivity increases by removing bottlenecks, reducing downtime, better planning and improved control).
“Knox D'Arcy has helped us achieve a transformation in performance and the cost base. Their main strengths have been the rigour that they apply to their analysis and their ability to actually implement the required changes successfully and make it happen.”
