Tools for improvement

The most effective tools to support management decisions and improve business operations


Flow Charting & Work Methods Design

Flow process charting is the simplest tool for recording and analysing simple processes.

Identify non value-adding activities, excess movement and delays to pin-point opportunities to reduce costs and increase output.

We can help you design efficient work methods and teach you how to use this valuable tool to continue improvements.


Process Simulation

Discrete Event Simulation (DES) enables experimentation and optimisation of complex processes at a fraction of the cost of shop floor trials.

Avoid costly mistakes by ensuring capital investments in plant and equipment are viable and human resource levels are optimum for the process you are designing or improving.


Productivity Problem Solving

Productivity issues can be difficult to solve as the symptoms can appear anywhere in a process.

We'll help you find the root cause of problems in any department of your business.


Business Systems Analysis

Today there are many ERP and information management packages in use, and most packages will have standard KPIs and other performance measurements to assist and support management decisions.

We'll help you create meaningful KPIs and ensure they are accurate and informative without the unknown assumptions that some standard KPIs include.
