The Way Forward: Successfully Implementing a Growth Strategy at the Schleuniger Group 

Schleuniger E400 Kabelverarbeitungsmaschine mit Touchscreen, moderne Produktionslösung für Maschinen- und Anlagebau

In close collaboration with the global management team of the Schleuniger Group, a growth strategy comprising approximately 24 concrete implementation initiatives was developed and successfully executed. This enabled the company to increase revenue from CHF 110 million to CHF 220 million within the targeted four-year period. Growth was achieved through both organic expansion and strategic acquisitions, while maintaining a strong EBIT margin of 12% to 15%.

Our Achievements

  • Project design and governance
  • Development of strategic analyses
  • Formulation of the growth strategy, including initiatives across R&D, marketing and sales, production, supply chain, processes, HR, and organizational development
  • Initiation and support during the early phase of the extensive implementation program
  • Securing buy-in and fostering commitment and motivation among stakeholders at all organizational levels
  • Preparation of documentation and board proposals for decision-making by the Metall Zug Group Board of Directors

Result

In addition to fully achieving the targeted growth objectives, the program enabled the creation of 70 additional full-time positions and the implementation of a CHF 10 million investment program at the Thun and Unterägeri sites, including the establishment of a new Technology and Training Center in Thun.

The project was further recognized with first place in the annual award presented by economiesuisse and the Swiss Management Consultants Association for the best consulting project delivered by an internationally active management consulting firm.
