We know from our experience that most of the companies, regardless of size and industry, have considerable potential of operational results improvement: not 10-20% of increment in profit per year, but at least 50% and more. And in 1,5-2 times and more than you plan.

IT IS IMPORTANT! You can achieve it with available resources if you implement the efficient improvement package.

According to the results of the implementation of such project , the companies have achieved the following results*:

Manufacturing companies:

• Increase of marginal income – in 1,7-2 times.
• Increase in sales – 40-70% increase.
• Increase in production – 15-30% increase.
• Reduction of terms of production cycle and execution of orders – in 2-5 times.
• Level increase in execution of orders in time - up to 99%.
• Considerable reduction of goods-in-process inventory.

Trading companies:

• Increase in sales – 30-60% increase (with the same inventory).
• Increase of marginal income – 40-60% increase.
• Reduction in loss of sales (the cases of deficiency) - 50-60% increase.
• Considerable increase of inventory turnover indicator.
• Considerable quantity reduction of slow-moving article.

*Average results after 8 months of project implementation.

There are always skeptics and pessimists on the way to success, who affirm:

In manufacturing companies:

• Our equipment is used to the maximum limit and there is no reserve for production increase.
• Our production cycle and terms of orders’ execution are impossible to be reduced.
• We do not have reserves for sales increase and there is nothing to do with it.
• We understand that we have a bulk of work in process, but there is nothing to do with it.

In trading companies:

• We have surplus of one goods and acute shortage of the others, but there is nothing to do with it. The demand is unpredictable.
• We always have to sell out surpluses almost at a loss, and we are used to it. What we are to do with it?
• We do not have the reserves for sales increase and we can’t help it.

The facts claim the opposite. The income increase of any company is held back only by a bottleneck – the key limitation. Our methodology permits to find and improve it with minimum costs.

We pay your attention to the following…

• The first results have been marked during the first 3 months from the beginning of the project.
• The results have been achieved by the companies of different sizes and industries.
• The results have been achieved without extra investments, or their amount was small.
• As a result of the project, the companies have become more competitive, they have expanded their market share.
• Consulting projects were repaid in little less than a year.

In spite of the first impression, the results mentioned are not incredible and they are quite achievable by most of the companies, BUT the following conditions are necessary:

• Trust and mutual understanding between the company management and the consultants.
• Direct participation of the company management in the process of preparation and implementation.
• Adequate resources and high priority of the project for the company management (conflicting projects must be suspended).
• Elaboration of changes with involvement of key staff members.
• The company should have the potential for expansion of market share.
• Adequate records management (production and inventory).
• Possibility of replenishment of enterprise’s circulating capital to ensure increase in production and in sales as a result of the project.

By means of what the results are achieved?

Our approach is based on synthesis of the most efficient tools from different managerial methods (Theory of Constraint, Lean Production and the others) and of in-house development. Every method apart has its own strengths and weaknesses and is not efficient enough. Combination of the most efficient tools allows achieving maximal results.
