Packaging Cost Audits

SPG’s packaging cost audit for businesses involves a holistic review of packaging systems to identify areas where costs can be reduced, efficiencies can be improved, and materials can be optimized without compromising product protection or quality.

The audit includes an exhaustive analysis of current packaging materials, design, and process, as well as identifying potential bottlenecks and inefficiencies. Here’s a more detailed breakdown:

Key Aspects of SPG’s Packaging Cost Audit:

• Cost Analysis: Determining the total cost of packaging, including materials, labor, equipment, and transportation.
• Material Analysis: Evaluating the type, grade, and performance of packaging materials to ensure they are the most cost-effective and appropriate.
• Process Optimization: Identifying and eliminating inefficiencies in the packaging process, such as unnecessary steps, bottlenecks, or wasted materials.
• Design Review: Assessing the effectiveness of the packaging design in protecting the product during transit and storage and identifying areas for improvement like cube utilization.
• Supplier Analysis: Evaluating the cost and performance of packaging suppliers.
• Compliance: Ensuring that packaging meets all relevant industry standards and regulations.
