Supply chain maturity assessment

Transform your operations with data-driven insights and a roadmap to supply chain maturity

What is a supply chain maturity assessment?

A supply chain maturity assessment is a comprehensive evaluation of your organization’s supply chain performance across five critical domains: planning, procurement, logistics, warehousing and strategic alignment. Using RSM’s proprietary five-level maturity model, with ranges from reactive to orchestrated, we benchmark your capabilities against industry best practices and identify areas for optimization.

This service goes beyond diagnostics. It equips your team with actionable insights and a custom roadmap for end-to-end supply chain transformation.

Why is a supply chain maturity assessment important?

In today’s volatile and interconnected global economy, supply chains are under unprecedented pressure. Disruptions, rising customer expectations and digital transformation demands are exposing operational gaps and inefficiencies.

Key challenges companies face include:

  • Poor demand forecasting and fulfillment inefficiencies
  • Siloed operations with limited real-time visibility
  • Outdated planning and procurement processes
  • Rising customer expectations and supply volatility
  • A lack of AI-driven, data-informed  insights

RSM’s supply chain maturity assessment is designed to help organizations confront these challenges with confidence. Using a proprietary framework, we evaluate your supply chain across more than 50 value drivers in planning, procurement, logistics, warehousing and strategy. The result is a clear, data-driven picture of your current state, benchmarked against industry best practices and peer performance.

RSM delivers a transparent view of current capabilities and a strategic path toward:

  • Improved operational efficiency
  • Enhanced supply chain resilience
  • Better data-driven decision making
  • Lower total cost to serve (TCS)
  • Greater return on supply chain investments

Whether you’re preparing for an enterprise resource planning solution implementation, network redesign or digital supply chain transformation, this assessment provides the foundation for long-term success.

This service is especially valuable for chief operating officers, supply chain leaders and transformation teams seeking to align operations with enterprise strategy, improve performance and drive measurable ROI.
