Each company has different needs:

	Will the company be manufacturing in-house?
	Or, will the company outsource the manufacturing?
	What is the company's information needs?
	What are the suppliers' information needs?
	How will the selling strategies influence the information needs and need for tools?
	Is the company expected to be a mega-company or a niche player?
	How might the company's product offerings evolve over time?
	Are acquisitions part of the company's growth strategy?

Start-Up Companies

We have extensive operations consulting experience helping start-up companies create their operations infrastructure from scratch. Our Silicon Valley roots gave us many opportunities in this area.

Established Companies

As operations consultants, we also help established companies who have "hit the wall" due to missing or inadequate systems and/or processes.

In many instances, these clients have experienced such explosive growth or product line diversification that they quickly outgrew established processes and systems.

Usually, there simply wasn't sufficient organizational capacity to consider "what is needed to run the business" as the company achieves higher and higher levels of growth and success.

The resulting gaps and breakdowns have a negative impact on Customers, Dealers and personnel at a time when a company can ill afford to experience such operating difficulties.

The folks who need to address these issues are usually overwhelmed with the day-to-day demands of a rapidly growing business and can never quite provide the focused attention necessary to correct the deficiencies.

We provide the focused energy and attention to help you correct your challenges consistent with your operating needs.
