About us

Maximizing operational efficiency and effectiveness has never been easy. Yet excelling at operations management is even more daunting today owing to supply chain disruptions, trade instability, changes in customer expectations, and the rise of digital operations, which have upended services and manufacturing processes. These developments have business leaders in every industry asking, “What will the future of operations look like? And how can we succeed in that new landscape?” At BCG, we partner with clients at every level of their organization to drive transformational change—and impact—in key areas of operations management ranging from procurement, service operations, and supply chain to manufacturing, capital project management, and end-to-end operational excellence. Follow this page for a collection of insights and news from BCG’s Operations practice.

This week, BCG and BCG Platinion joined more than 4,000 exhibitors and 130,000 attendees at HANNOVER MESSE to showcase advanced Agentic AI capabilities with deep tech demos in cognitive robotics and XR. BCG hosted “Industrial Tech Unplugged”, an executive reception that brought together nearly 40 industry leaders to discuss the future of manufacturing. A fireside chat with John Reed (Microsoft) and Klaus Geissdoerfer (ebm-papst) delivered sharp insights on AI ROI, workforce upskilling, and the emergence of Agentic AI. Thank you to everyone who stopped by for a great week!

To cut costs sustainably, they need to redesign the #operating model and address the four drivers that our BCG experts have explored in this article: https://lnkd.in/g2Sh265V Authored by BCG's Kevin Kelley, Travis Meyer, Sarah Baxter, and Miyabi Honda.

At Indorama Ventures' highest point, CEO and founder Aloke Lohia made a bold decision—cutting #production capacity across plants in Europe, the US, and Canada. With rising raw material #costs driven by electrification, staying the course was no longer an option. The move carried reputational risks and short-term market challenges, but it was a necessary step to secure long-term growth. In this episode of CEO Moments of Truth, Aloke reveals how he navigated this high-stakes shift to keep IVL competitive in a rapidly evolving industry.
