The last two months has seen more coverage on declining Sales and downsizing than any other subject . Though its comes as a shock , is it a recessionary trend or signs of market saturation , only time will tell .
The effect of declining sales is on the Fixed Costs per unit , which shoots up . Expecting customary growth, many manufacturers have undertaken expansion or upgradation which is now haunting them as added expenses . How to respond ?
Viewing this as an oppurtunity to Improve - Operations , Throughput ,Competitiveness will be the best way out . Implementing Cost Reduction Programmes and Constraint Elimination projects would help you to improve and get more from less .
Yes , getting more from less is the way out .
