We'll Work With You Every Step of the Way
We have worked with manufacturers in many different industries and every one of them had unique issues germane to their company. We treat all of our clients as individual case studies. Since we are a boutique firm, we are not interested in the quantity of clients we work with but passionate about the quality of the service we give to the limited number of clients we serve. Below are three case studies typical of how we uncover issues for our clients and how we solve them.
COMPANY RUN LIKE A MOM & POP AND GROSS MARGIN WAS SHRINKING
The Company was being run like a mom and pop organization. The owner did not know how to hold his managers accountable and felt like he was responsible for every little decision. The factory was in disarray, office personnel were coming out to the factory changing production schedules, orders were being changed on a whim from customers, the production schedule was no more than a glorified shipping schedule and sample requests were constantly interrupting production. Consequently, the added costs were shrinking the gross margin
COSTING PROBLEMS &
COLLECTION ISSUES
This manufacturer was having problems with properly costing their products; they were not including all of their overheads therefore; not realizing their projected gross margin. The owner was making collection calls and not spending enough time running the business.
OWNER TOO ATTACHED TO OPERATIONS & FACTORY NOT PERFORMING WELL
The Owner was too attached to the day-to-day operations and did not have the time or confidence to leave the factory in pursuit of sales. The factory was lagging industry standards in productivity.
