Abstract
Pillsbury is transforming itself from an integrated producer of flour and bakery products to a value-added supplier of premium branded products. After initial successes applying activity-based costing to manufacturing operations, two senior executives decide to collaborate to propose a major reengineering project across the company's entire value chain. The case describes the project's definition and scope to yield projected annual cost savings and margin improvement between $100 and $300 million.
