Think of us as the "Shark Tank" of consulting;
a supercharged network of improvement sages specializing in world class business excellence techniques.
Our team is loaded with practicing Master Black Belts; not just trainers or theorists.
Most have Master-level degress in business, engineering, etc. and accompanying certifications.
Interview 100 self-acclaimed Black Belts or process improvement experts, ask even a few detailed questions,
and what you'll find are no more than hollow buzz words on a resume. Our team actually lives by the methodology
practicing daily and using or specializing in major optimization systems and techniques including:
Our Master Black Belts walk the path of profitability.
We don't come in and meaninglessly process flow / value stream map the entire organization
or arbitrarily 5S areas and make people tape where the stapler goes on their desk.
A pretty shadow board showing where tools go is nice.
What's better is more frequently used tools closer to the point of use in a way that minimizes
motion, makes work easier, and therefore gains at least a soft cost save.
We transform the current state into a more profitable contained state.
Then we transform the contained state into a more profitable future state.
If any step would result in a less profitable condition or payback period greater than the company's cut off (generally 12 months),
then we don't make the change. Practicing in this manner has allowed us to save literally millions of dollar per year
in the industries below.
Millions of dollars per year have been saved entriprise-wide including the following functions:

Steve was one of the great managers that I was fortune to work with and from whom I learned many of my improvement techniques. He was my Master Black Belt in 6 Sigma. I contribute much of my success to him for teaching me the first steps along my journey to excellence. His encouragement and leading by example continue to be the guidance for many of my engineering projects. Many great managers and engineers are his students and receive the benefit from his training.

I had an excellent and memorable experience of attending Six Sigma Green Belt and Black Belt training from a professional trainer, coach and industry expert who was hired by our organization to help with the transformation of company processes. Our Master Black Belt was not only knowledgeable in the subject but also had several years of hands-on experience working on complex projects, solving problems, applying and implementing Lean and Six Sigma techniques. His teaching skills were exceptional making it easy for everyone to clearly understand the concepts. He brought energy and motivation in the workforce and quickly won praise, recognition and respect from management, staff and shop floor employees. His knowledge transfer, coaching, and guidance helped improve several key processes and resulted in significant improvement in company KPIs and customer satisfaction level. I highly recommend him for his remarkable skills, knowledge, passion, and professional approach towards process and business excellence.

I had the privilege of working with our Master Black Belt when he spearheaded the Six Sigma transformation within our company. The "do-as-I-do" disciplined style of his direction resonated within our entire organization. This was during a period of escalated growth and the management struggles that often accompany. Through his steady and focused approach, he brought structure to the craziness, garnered buy-in at all levels, and was quickly recognized as the guru. This was several years ago and now as a leader in an unrelated industry, I still find myself looking back on many of the concepts and methods we discussed. You may remember that one great teacher you had when you were in school, or a mentor you still think about today? He is one of those kind of special people who one is fortunate to know.
