The review must define the value proposition and clearly define Schenker’s performance to the value proposition.

The plan clearly identifies the current business (in both written and budgetary/P&L format), lays the foundation for future growth through proactive planning and “needs identification” - the KAM is responsible for 15% organic growth per year. The business plan is a dynamic document that changes yearly/monthly to reflect the customer’s business evolution.
- Continuous Improvements - Identification, documentation and implementation of continuous improvements will save the client money and/or time. One or two realistic improvements per year will create value for the customer and drive Schenker’s value beyond rates.
