We offer three main services for our clients, providing balanced business solutions with a coaching perspective. Results and progress need close attention, but so does the welfare of the team.

 

Projects

Most companies have a lack of experienced problem solvers. And if they do have a capable one, they are not always available - either because they are too busy or because they work in another department. Abilities to perform risk analysis, develop test strategy and provide solutions are not common enough for organizations. Many struggle with meeting competing requirements, addressing a persistent yield concern, or improving through put.

In a recent project, we provided support for a company's "impossible project". Several times questions came up about cutting the project. Even though the technology advance would be an important change for customers, maybe this idea was not realistic. At one point, we recommended a redesign which solved performance concerns. Later, manufacturing concerns were studied and addressed with process adjustments and other design changes. Our work continued to quickly optimize the new features. The project is now considered a success technically and from a market perspective.

We can also help you evaluate your measurement system capability.

Training

Companies need training, and work related coaching, that possesses smart time usage, applicable information and practical implementation. Often times, training leaves a huge gap between lecture and reality. Some will use toys to teach, which may be fun, but it does not bridge the gap to practical application.

Through our training, we have coached over 186 DOE projects and saved an estimated $7,480,000 (not including about 8 outliers that were "too high", which would more than double the savings).

Program management

Sometimes an organization will have a new idea for a first or next phase product offering, and they need a new team to help pull it together. How do you find a team of people who can work together, who you can be confident in, and be assembled in a short period of time? During these periods of focused design work, we can create a temporary team (internal and external members) using our expert network. Focus is on the outcome of the program, not just on the deliverable outputs.

We have developed and coached teams in multiple environments who have created product development speed records. Once a three year project was completed in 1 1/2 years. Another time an 18 month project was finished in 11 months (while also cleaning up an old project to improve manufacturability).
