Organizations involved along the chain included a consolidated abattoir and meat packer, a large size distribution company and a public sector catering division.
The following gives an overview of the application of the value chain analysis method which followed a standard ten days implementation roadmap as suggested by Taylor and Simons (2004).
The method draws upon the Toyota mapping technique (Rother and Shook, 1999) where a detailed current state map of all activities along the chain is created for detailed analysis against the consumer value.
Then a future state map of the supply chain is created and the companies involved work towards implementing it.
