Methods of Working

What can Lean Consultancy support do for me?

Lean Consultancy solutions are clearly quite specific to each client, but some example outcomes are provided below:

• Improved Quality - Benchmarking analysis of a plant’s waste streams identified a significant opportunity. The application of good Lean practice achieved ongoing savings of 40%.
• Reduced Costs - The identification of the root causes of lost output and facilitation of plant teams practice enabled output to be raised by over 15% enabling significant cost reductions for a building products manufacturer.
• Improved Delivery - opportunities were identified in the internal supply chain of a batch chemicals manufacturer, which when actioned improved overall customer service levels and at the same time improved stock turns and plant performance.
• Performance Improvement - Benchmarking identified significant issues with current team working practices, which lowered performance. We demonstrated how modern “Lean Techniques” could be adopted in the plant without the need for significant capital investment.
• Waste reduction - Benchmarking identified significant waste streams within the business and a tailored consultancy approach enabled these waste streams to be tackled and resolved.
