Optimizing Value in Integrated Sawmill Setup
Problem Statement
The Business Unit recently integrated multiple sawmills with an existing downstream mill, creating clear potential for value through closer operational integration. However, the lack of a unified, data-driven view across sites and sourcing prevented synergies from being realized.
Fragmented decisions, limited visibility into material flows, and misaligned sourcing and logistics resulted in inefficient fiber balance, higher procurement costs, and missed value from internal versus external allocation choices.
The client required a structured, analytical approach to clarify integration options, quantify value drivers, and define an optimized setup that maximizes BU-level value.
Key Objectives
Map and assess current material flows across sawmills, downstream operations, and sourcing to identify inefficiencies and bottlenecks.
Develop an optimization-based model to evaluate internal versus external allocation decisions under different scenarios.
Define an optimal integrated setup that maximizes BU-level value while respecting operational constraints.
