Manufacturing profitability you can trace to the operation
Understand profitability by customer, SKU, order and production economics—not just by financial account or reporting period.
Connect the income statement to product and operating economics.
PredictLine can bring together revenue, COGS, contribution margin, customers, SKUs, orders, inventory and production drivers so management can understand where profit is created or lost.
Customer & order
Revenue, pricing, volume, customer mix and order activity.
SKU & BOM
Product mix, bill of materials, planned cost and production requirements.
Production cost
Material consumption, labor, machine time, work orders and actual production economics.
Which customers create contribution?
Review revenue and cost drivers in the context of the products, orders and operational resources supporting the customer.
Which products deserve attention?
Compare product economics and identify the cost, price, volume and mix drivers behind margin differences.
What does it really cost?
Connect material, labor and machine economics to work orders and production activity to understand actual cost.
Profitability becomes a management workflow
A profitability report is the starting point. The useful question is what the business should do with the result.
Find the largest economic drivers
Prioritize customers, products, orders, suppliers or production activities with the greatest financial impact.
Investigate the cause
Trace pricing, volume, mix, material, labor, machine, yield, inventory and purchasing effects.
Evaluate the next decision
