Business Planning/Reviews

Operations Management We can assist your team in analyzing your operation. Establishing best practices for the specifics of your business will improve operating efficiencies and results.

Manufacturing/Process Engineering Service Making the make/buy decision can be one of the most difficult but most critical decisions a company makes. Reinventing the wheel is seldom a good choice but there may be times when a critical part or process is best kept in-house. Once the make/buy decision is made planning the manufacturing strategy for a make decision or selecting the manufacturer for a buy decision are critical decisions. We have years of experience in making and then managing these decisions. We can help you make the make/buy decisons and then help you establish and manage supply chains, select and manage a contract manufacturer or establish and monitor your internal manufacturing processes. We can also help you review your processes and insure that process flows and yields are optimized and control points appropriately selected and monitored.

Supply Chain Management 'Just-in-time': manufacturing is more than just having products/materials arrive five minutes before you need them. We can help you establish a supply management program that maximizes the use of your precious resources whether they be inventory or people. A good supplier base that provides you on time delivery of quality products and materials is critical to your success. We can help you establish a base of supplier partners and a material supply approach that is appropriate and effective for your business.

Interim Management Too expensive to add a full time COO or VP of Operations? In between CEOs and need some short term help while you hire a permanent CEO? If you need some interim/virtual/part time help in manufacturing, operations, engineering or quality at a senior/executive level, give us a call. We have many years of experience in positions including CEO, COO, VP Manufacturing, VP Quality and VP Operations.

Executive Mentoring/Coaching Knowing what to do or who to contact in specific situations is critical to fast and effective action in a dynamic business environment. Yet in todays economic environment or in start-up and small to medium sized companies your management team may not yet have all the experience or knowledge needed. Here is where an experienced coach and mentor can be invaluable in supporting your management team. With over thirty years experience in various high tech companies from large multinationals to small public companies, from start-ups to turnarounds, our team has the depth of experience and knowledge to coach your team through any situation. Our team has knowledge gained through holding positions such as President and CEO of a Canadian Public company which brings with it the first hand experience of initiating and implementing mergers and acqusitions and equity financing, in addition to the day to day activities involved in the successful management of a company.

Quality Planning Quality planning is a critical element. Establishing a quality system that meets the needs of your business while providing excellence in quality of product or service is a must. Regardless of whether you are in a regulated industry or unregulated industry, your quality system must reflect the realities of your specific business but it must also be a comprehensive quality system that will demonstrate your commitment to quality to your customers and your employees. We have experience in implementing quality systems in a variety of environments. We can help you assess your needs and adapt your system to them, all the time insuring that your quality needs and objectives are met or exceeded.

Advisory Board Whether or not your company is a public company or privately held a good advisory board or board of directors can be key if not critical to the success of your company. A properly constituted board provides support and mentoring for the CEO and a valuable sounding board for the company. The key is properly constituted. Properly constituted both in terms of the people who are on it and in the definition of the roles of the board and its individual members. A blend of varying experience in different industries and different fields is critical to the value of a board. Unfortunately many boards are made up solely of key investors often resulting in similar interests and skills that may not be broad enough or otherwise appropriate to adequately serve the needs of the company. Unfortunately there are many improperly constituted boards. We are prepared to assist you in finding the right blend of board members with the varying and complimentary skills required for your company. We can also assist in defining the role of the board and its members. We are also prepared to sit as active members of advisory boards or boards of directors where the skills that we bring are complimentary to other board members and appropriate and of value to the CEO and the company.
