Business Process Optimization
How your Teams can see the Current State of Your Business and Drive Toward a Better Future
Are your employees aware of their role in creating value for customers? Are they able to see waste and defects with the power to solve problems? How much of your capacity is spent “in” the business of keeping things moving versus working “on” the business and actively making it better?
Utilizing value stream mapping, lean and six sigma fundamentals, we engage with your team to capture the current state of processes that drive customer value. Examples of key processes we focus on include inquiry-to-order, order-to-cash, procure-to-pay, sales & operations planning, R&D, new product introduction, leadership, finance, audit and infrastructure.
Along the way, we gather risks, gaps, and opportunities as problem statements which are prioritized by impact and implementation. We then discuss the training and tools to facilitate the best solutions to those problems and design a plan to achieve results against the agreed measurements of business success.
We often suggest that clients dedicate resources to this effort so we can embed these methods into their organization, allowing for changes to be sustained and built over time.
This evolution is, and should be, specific to your company so long-term engagement is driven by culture.
