Release the cash already inside your business.
Managing working capital and raising free cash flow from operations are top priorities as lending tightens and costs stay elevated. We help executives look inward for funding.
A unique capability in Net Working Capital.
As the #1 supply chain and operations consulting firm in North America, Maine Pointe brings extensive capability in analyzing and managing Net Working Capital performance across inventory, payables and receivables.
We help executives and investors who need greater liquidity and flexibility unlock cash internally — quickly, sustainably, and without breaking service, growth or supplier relationships.
Working capital is a core pillar of our Total Value Optimization™ approach, tightly integrated with procurement, operations, logistics and planning so cash gains stick.
Clients typically release 20% to 35% of working capital and compress cash-to-cash cycles across the enterprise.
Where we add value.
