Use cases addressing the aggregate gaps across every plant in the Consumer Products division. Refreshes as surveys complete. Showing top 25 of 77 qualifying use cases.

25 use cases · 148 unique enablers

Pick the use cases, enablers and solutions that matter, save them as an Initiative, then open it in ValueMaps to put a dollar figure on it.

Which capabilities recur across the use cases in this list. The darkest rows are the “spine” capabilities — the ones a single platform investment would address across the most use cases. A useful read for deciding what to pull into an Initiative.

Rows are the top 18 capabilities by within-list frequency; columns are the use cases. Darker rows = more universal across your roadmap (the "spine" capabilities a single platform investment addresses at once).
