Lean means looking at your processes in a new way and using the most appropriate tools to make improvements, often leading to radical shifts in culture.  Our wide breadth of experience and knowledge of World-Class Lean and Process Improvement tools, combined with our ‘Coach the Business’ approach means our work with you is extremely effective at resolving your issues quickly and permanently

We start by working with you to define your desired Outcomes and current Situation using a Project Initiation Document so all stakeholders can clearly see the way forward.  We then discuss potential Choices before agreeing an Action plan, which could include a wide range of Lean tools or even Six Sigma and Leadership options such as Business Coaching.

Past work has included:

• Lean improvement blitzes, including 5S, TPM, Kaizen, One Piece Flow, Kanban etc
• Process Mapping and Problem Solving workshops, for departments, cross-department value streams and whole organisations
• Redesign of back office processes to meet budget constraints
• Design of new processes to meet new governance requirements
• Redesign of shop floor layout and processes to meet sudden increase in orders, including balancing workflow
• Design of integrated processes following competitor acquisitions

In all cases, we have worked with staff, ensuring skills transfer and full involvement – leading to effective and lasting change.
