we challenge ourselves-and our clients-to continually find new ways to improve results. Then we do it all over again.
Engineering and Business Process
Business processes are often overlooked as an opportunity. Many support departments focus on optimizing their processes but deliver overall sub-optimized results. Like a relay race, the baton is usually dropped at the hand off points. Standard work may not be standard practice, if it exists at all. We have extensive business process experience that will drive simultaneous improvements in lead time, quality, cost and customer experience, even in made to order environments such as engineering services an design.
Culture Change
Achieving great results is one thing, sustaining and continuing to improve upon them is another. It takes a management system driven by leader behaviors combined with specific tools to create a culture of engagement and improvement. Our proven expertise in this area will make it happen faster than you think.
Manufacturing & OpEx
The roots of the lean production system are in manufacturing. It is not only about efficiency. We design for customer value and innovation through reliable manufacturing and assembly processes. Our focus is on safety and ergonomics as well as quality, cost and delivery. Leverage these improvements by making everyone a problem solver through our management systems.
Management System & Leader Standard Work
Your current system is designed to deliver your current results. Not happy? Room for improvement? Does it feel like there is too much firefighting and not enough time spent on value added activity? Let us work with you to redesign your system to deliver improved results, greater engagement and higher levels of job satisfaction.
Training, Coaching, & Leader Development
Your employees rely upon your team leaders', supervisors', and manager's leadership skills to be effective. Most people are not born leaders. Chances are many of your leaders were selected or promoted due to their hard work, dedication and technical ability. We help people succeed by working with them to help fill skill gaps. As their skills improve, so will results, job satisfaction and the ability to leverage improvements by increased levels of employee engagement.
