Meet your new strategy platform

Cascade is the operating system that connects strategy to execution, across every segment, every team, every market. For NN, this means one place where every growth pillar, from grid and data center to medical and defense, is tracked against the same value creation plan.
Thousands of global organizations depend on Cascade

NN has unique challenges.

Cascade solves them all.

Challenges

Solutions

Non-automotive has grown from 35% to 60% of sales since 2023. The planning structure has to reflect the business NN is today, and where its growth now comes from.
Cascade lets you restructure the plan around NN's current business mix, so priorities, owners, and KPIs reflect where the growth is coming from.
The five-year value creation plan has been pulled forward. Evidence of progress has to keep pace with it, every quarter, in front of the market.
Cascade builds the value creation view from live data, so leadership can show progress between earnings cycles without rebuilding the numbers.
Grid and data center, medical, defense electronics, high-value vehicle parts, stampings. Five growth pillars in very different markets need to meet in one progress view.
Cascade gives every growth pillar its own execution layer, while leadership sees how all five are tracking against the plan in one view.

Plan, progress, and performance  all in one platform.

"If you ask any of the plant managers what the strategy is today, they can tell you. They know Speedup. They know the six focus areas. That was not the case before Cascade, and for me, that is the big advantage."
