OPTIMIZATION HYPOTHESES
Optimization measures can be
hypothesized by direct comparisons
among the existing

FOOTPRINT SETUP
The future production setup is
determined by one of three
archetypes and outlined in
different scenarios. Optimal
production setup can be a
combination or variation of the
market-based, product-based
or volume-based strategy
MARKET-BASED
PRODUCTION SETUP
Every site serves a defined regional
market with all respective products
PRODUCT-BASED
PRODUCTION SETUP
Sites produce only a single product
and deliver it worldwide
TOOL VALIDATION
In a next step, business cases for
the derived scenarios are prepared
and a tool-based validation is
employed to adequately assess
costs, benefits and potential risks
