What you'll learn

  • Where tariffs actually hit you: how rates vary by product classification (HS code) and origin, and the hidden costs of stockpiling, rush orders and overtime

  • How to find your cost exposure: measure productivity and see where cost builds up across planning, sourcing, production and delivery

  • A five-step cost reduction approach: from a 12-month spend baseline to ranked opportunities with owners, targets and a way to prove the savings

  • Which tools to use when: from simple process maps and root cause analysis to Lean Six Sigma

  • A real example: how one business turned the approach into measurable savings

Why this matters now

Trade policy keeps shifting, and every change makes sourcing, pricing and investment decisions harder to plan. Duties paid by importers flow down to domestic businesses through higher input costs. You can absorb them and lose margin, or pass them on and risk losing customers.

There is a third option. Industry benchmarks show businesses lose 20–30% of revenue to waste and inefficiency across the supply chain. That is cost you can control, and finding it is how you protect your margin when tariffs rise.
