Savouidakis - Cretan products

Savidakis SA is a rapidly growing family business that produces, stores and bottles olive oil, placing it in international and domestic markets, while offering a wide range of Cretan and Greek products. With continuous investment in infrastructure, it has managed to achieve significant growth rates the recent years.

When the partnership with MDC Stiakakis began, the company was ready to take the next development step. However, in order for this step to be successful, the company had to build an organizational structure that will be able to undertake the work needed in order to move to the next level. Equally important also was the ability to measure the results of the plan that would be implemented.

In collaboration with the company's executives, we created the internal operational structure required for a clear delegation of responsibilities, better audit, time savings and mistakes reduction. In addition, an automated data analysis system was implemented to monitor the plan, which is at the heart of all decisions concerning the operation and development of the company.

Within the framework of the internal operational structure, we implemented the following:

  1. Mapping of the current situation by identifying strengths and weaknesses.
  2. Creation and implementation of an organizational chart with responsibilities and information flow.
  3. Creation of detailed operating procedures.
  4. Profitability analysis and customer base refinement to increase profitability.

The data analysis system contributed to:

  1. Automatic monitoring of market shares nationwide.
  2. Virtual monitoring of tank quantities for production planning.
  3. Automated production costing adapted to the specifics of the company.
  4. Monitoring sales and salespeople performance.
  5. Monitoring product and customer profitability and identifying the least efficient.

With the completion of the projects, the company achieved:

  • More efficient internal operation with increased time savings and errors.
  • Real time 360˚ management information system, without the need for human involvement.
  • Detailed and simplified cost monitoring.
  • Faster decision making and implementation of corrective actions.
