The teams themselves are now taking the initiative." Fred Waij, TPM manager, Heineken Breweries.

We are consultants specialised in productivity improvements, both in manufacturing industries as in service organisations (e.g. call centres and hospitals). Our track record includes multinational companies in electronics, chemical process, pharmaceutical and food industries, call centres, ceramic and service industries.

Our strength is the conceptual knowledge combined with implementation experience: how to get things realised on the shop floor. In order to achieve lasting results, we always work together with the local people.
