Comparison of Methodologies
Client discussions sparked the development of the Supply Chains to Admire methodology. The reason? The industry was frustrated with the Gartner Top 25 approach. Companies wanted a more data-driven approach reflecting industry trends. The concern was that the Gartner Top 25, based 50% on the opinion of analysts and industry leaders, was a popularity contest. The request was for a data-driven analysis based on corporate financials, allowing a comparison of large and small companies across currencies. The goal was to understand the relative positions of companies within industry peer groups. In Table 3, we share a comparison of the two methodologies
The Gartner analysis lacks a peer group comparison. As shown in this report, each industry's market drivers and inherent potential differ. As shown in Table 4 , the Gartner methodology biases large branded companies. The analysis shows that 67% of the Gartner Top 25 companies underperform their peer group on growth, 44% on operating margin, and 41% on inventory turns. The blue highlights underperformance, while the yellow highlights mark the companies meeting the criteria for both analyses. In the 2023 analysis, Apple and L'Oreal are the only companies that meet the requirements for these two very different techniques to assess supply chain excellence.
