Client success story

DATA DRIVEN OPTIMISATION

Unlocking Capacity Without Capital Spend​

CLIENT:

GLOBAL TOY MANUFACTURER​

The challenge:

A £7.2b very mature global toy manufacturer, operating at >96% OEE, was struggling to unlock additional capacity to support growth without significant investment.

Mature business with >96% OEE had “run out” of traditional improvement levers

Existing data failing to reveal new opportunities

Leadership perception that only capital spend could unlock capacity

The business perceived the cost as significant:
requiring capital investment, additional labour, and reduced margin.

The Solution:

LMAC applied its proprietary analytics tool to the client’s existing data, pinpointing hidden capacity opportunities in planning, variation reduction, and efficiency across the global supply chain. Through the Data Driven Optimisation framework, we enabled teams to adopt new ways of thinking and scale improvements.
