OUR SERVICES

Real business problems.

You have a real problem or you wouldn't need us. With our help, the problem is qualified, quantified, and underlying causes identified. Focusing on the right problem is a key to your success.

Build a focused team from our global network.

From our 141 associates, we construct a team that knows your business and the problem you face. This team comes ready to work, not ready to learn about you.

Apply leading-edge but proven processes.

Through our academic and thought leader linkages, we know the bleeding edge. From our experience, we know what will work. We bring you contemporary processes that actually work.

Build and transfer expertise.

We know it’s better for business profitability to keep you dependent on us. However, that's not why we're in business. Our job is to solve the problem and make you a more capable organization.

Lasting relationship based on results and integrity.

We expect to earn your trust through our results, solutions and customer-orientation. We want every customer to be a reference. We work hard to make that happen.

Consulting

Our consulting services run the gamut from strategic guidance to operational assistance. We have proprietary practices and diagnostics to help you set the right strategic direction for your organization. And, we provide a full set of operational assistance: project management, project staffing, change management, and executive coaching. Often, we combine our educational services with our consulting to provide for expanding your capabilities and providing a more effective transition.

Education

Our educational offering is centered on custom and semi-custom courses. We offer a range of half-day to full-week training for practitioners and executives. We do provide basic competency training for supply chain, procurement and logistics professionals. However, our ability to deliver leading-edge practices in concise and powerful training sessions is our strength.

Events

Our event offering is unique. Working with intact project teams, task teams, or senior management groups, we plan, organize and lead multi-day events aimed at accelerating results on strategic initiatives.

A typical event will run 3 days at an offsite location where we take the team through a learn-by-group-experience approach. Prior to the event, we work with event sponsors, senior management, and the team members to prepare them. After the event, we include follow-up sessions (typically, one hour meetings twice a month) and a full-day renewal session after six months. If you have an important initiative that is stuck in transitioning from planning to execution, falling perilously behind schedule, or just not getting the desired results, we’d like to talk with you and explain our offering.
