About this Presentation
GCPL has been growing through acquisitions in emerging geographies wherein increasing business complexity (in terms of product portfolio, new product introductions) has been a challenge. This presentation covers how the company is using TOC solutions to bring simplicity to grow businesses at a faster pace. Company uses innovative yet simple TOC solutions, which are internally developed. Deployment of these solutions have helped the company to realize significant improvement in on-time In-full (OTIF) performance to stores, inventory mix in retail outlets / customers and hence inventory turns. A detailed case is presented to demonstrate the conceptual model that is used to improve the business performance. The model developed can be easily adapted by many small- and medium-size businesses.

Godrej Consumer Products has been implementing TOC since 2004, using it to improve operations and value in their acquisitions.
The company uses a unique model of integrating acquisitions, letting them operate as independent entities while implementing processes and management systems from India.
Despite challenges in implementing TOC in diverse geographies due to language and cultural differences, the company has developed their own way of implementing TOC, using intuition to identify weak spots and applying logic to bring about change.
