Our case studies offer a window into how AEM Consulting partners with clients—from global enterprises to SMEs—to deliver sharp diagnostics, tailored solutions, and disciplined implementation that drives real outcomes.
In today's data-saturated world, organizations often struggle with fragmented insights and stalled execution. We close this gap by blending rigorous root cause analysis, evidence-based solution design, and hands-on implementation support.
Our case studies reflect:
Diverse sectors: Manufacturing, retail, hospitality, aerospace, and more
Varied challenges: Underperformance, process breakdowns, cost overruns, strategic blind spots
Consistent outcomes: Efficiency gains, cost reductions, customer experience improvements, and sustainable process change
Every project is a collaboration, not a handoff. We guide our clients across three key stages:
Root Cause & Diagnostics – Deep-diving into data to uncover the hidden bottlenecks
Solution Design & Benchmarking – Mapping strategic options with global best practices
Implementation & SOP Improvement – Translating strategy into repeatable action
This structured, cross-functional approach ensures that results are not just insightful—but actionable.
Featured Case Studies
A Tier 1 supplier in aerospace and medical devices saw rework rates spike from 0.8% to 2.5%, driven by solder joint failures. We:
Identified operator-driven variability
Standardized SOPs and retrained all shifts
Reduced rework costs (₹9.6M/year) and improved delivery timelines
An additive manufacturing lab was stalled for 3+ weeks when Nickel 718 shipments were rejected at customs. We:
Built a dual-source strategy with compliant vendors
Implemented hazmat SOPs and safety stock systems
Prevented £62K+ in penalties and costs, restoring ops in 8 weeks
Despite strong post-COVID growth, hidden underperformance at two European locations risked slowing momentum. We:
Diagnosed occupancy drops masked by centralized pricing
Enabled local dynamic pricing and booking best practices
Delivered a 2% occupancy improvement in 2 months
A nationwide retail chain faced a ₹14M annual loss due to inventory waste and unsold stock across 54 stores. We:
Discontinued 13 non-performing product categories across all locations
Implemented seasonal, data-driven inventory adjustments
Reversed a 23% decline in sales-to-inventory ratio and eliminated inventory loss
An SME cutting tool manufacturer suffered 15% cost overruns due to scrap and defects in EDM operations. We:
Identified suboptimal internal EDM process parameters as root cause
Ran controlled experiments to optimize machine settings
Reduced defects and rework by 90%+, transforming losses into profitability
What Our Clients Say
“AEM helped us identify issues in two branches that we didn’t even realize were dragging us down. Their insights were sharp, actionable, and ultimately profitable.”
