The factory of the future is powered by digitization and fuels sustainability. We help our manufacturing clients navigate a shifting landscape of supply chains, technologies, and talent to make the products the world demands in the ways the planet needs.
New technologies have upended industrial production. As a result, manufacturers are turning toward factories of the future. But they must address critical questions about just which manufacturing technologies, structures, and processes to embrace, what they will manufacture, and where and how they will manufacture it. Our manufacturing consulting experts help clients make the decisions that shape countless conditions: environmental footprint and sustainability, cost profile, exposure to risks, workforce requirements, customer targeting, and ultimate profitability.

Our manufacturing consulting experts coach and enable our clients on strategic and operational initiatives, helping them innovate and digitize their shop floors—where value is created. Our experts, backed by advanced data and analytics and a dedicated engineering team, work with clients to cut through complexity and achieve successful manufacturing transformations.
Our manufacturing consulting focuses our clients on three essential guiding questions:
Your product, product lines, and underlying components establish your manufacturing strategy. This includes what you make in-house versus buy through a supplier, as well as your supply chain and how you optimize it along with your manufacturing operations. BCG brings expertise in manufacturing strategy and organization, risk management and sustainability, and make-or-buy decisions.
You must decide not only in which locations your plants and distribution centers sit, but also how they’re optimized for such particulars as regulations, logistics, taxes, and duties. Our manufacturing consulting experts help clients make the best decisions using our advanced production network optimization tools like SNOW AI and the Global Manufacturing Cost-Competitiveness Index.
BCG helps evaluate your supply chain by viewing your global manufacturing operations through an integrated lens—ensuring everything from your lean manufacturing practices to your use of advanced robotics performs at a world-class level. We help you envision and build factories of the future that incorporate Industry 4.0 technologies, maintenance and production engineering strategies, logistics capabilities, lean production systems, and quality processes.
BCG’s manufacturing consulting clients enjoy access to a broad range of resources, including our Innovation Center for Operations. The following are among the tools and offerings we deliver.

COST OF GOODS
SOLD RECAPTURED
A pharmaceutical company asked BCG to optimize its production network. When we identified the best locations for offshore outsourcing, the company was able to recapture up to 55% of the cost of goods sold.
IN SAVINGS
An industrial goods company was experiencing an unwanted byproduct of its success: an unwieldy production system and, by extension, unclear KPIs. BCG designed and then implemented a system to apply standardized metrics across plants, paving the way for $30 million in savings.
DECREASE IN
EXPENSES
For an automotive company, BCG focused on the question of whether the company should make or buy certain products. To arrive at a comprehensive answer, we evaluated relative costs and the strategic importance of parts and processes, modeled external prices, and then compared those projections with in-house prices. As a result, our client slashed expenses within its production network by $120 million per year.
Powered by cutting-edge optimization algorithms, SNOW AI solves end-to-end supply chain problems quickly and optimally. SNOW AI helps identify optimal factory and distribution center locations and fine tune the overall network to build a resilient, sustainable, cost-efficient product supply network
This integrated platform delivers step-change performance and value using AI and digital tools to inform key operational decisions.
Our AI-powered solution helps design, plan, and optimize supply chains for efficiency, agility, and resilience.
