Professional

To ensure we provide cutting-edge knowledge and experience in all disciplines to the benefit of our clients, we work with specialist partners who supply technical and local expertise where their additional full knowledge and a thorough understanding is essential to producing the right solution.

Our partners’ areas of expertise cover a wide range of disciplines. Here are a few

• Finance and tax - supply chain strategy and design is often highly dependent on preparing a strong financial case that is as tax effective as possible. LCP works with recognised accountants to develop financially sound supply chain strategies and draws on their support for detailed corporate financial engineering
• Duty, customs and international trade - sourcing through the international supply chain is a complex web of regulation and registration. Companies are increasingly turning to global markets and are now discovering the need to plan this trade effectively to avoid hidden charges and frozen cargos. We work with the leading expert in this area when these issues need attention
• Planning and policy - the constraints of public and planning policy in relation to transportation and facility investments can be significant. Projects that involve controversial investments need specialist care from experts in the field. We work with experts who have a track record in the public sector on transportation and planning policy and development
• Market positioning - supply chain meets marketing to define the true brand experience. Many of LCP’s projects involve segmenting the customer base and aligning operations to the service those segments require. We work with a number of marketing specialists who can support the market-facing identification and positioning of need.
