The process begins by obtaining a thorough understanding of your organization, operations, customers, stakeholders and competitive environment. We match our capabilities and approaches with your objectives, capabilities and market realities.

Working With You…

We help you evaluate your needs and recognize opportunities for improvement. We develop an understanding of your organization, operations, customers, stakeholders and competitive environment. Next, we conduct an assessment that culminates in an improvement plan. After the plan is agreed to, the implementation begins. During the implementation, we use our integrated business and quality systems methodologies and tools to implement the improvement plan.

To Achieve Results…

Our concern is for the bottom line-experienced Program Managers work with your staff and our consultants to focus on clearcut strategies, project milestones and substantive deliverables providing measurable results. Our select group of management experts and quality professionals maintains an earnest commitment to forging solid client relations. But we also believe that the quality and value of our service speaks for itself-in the results.

All our Implementation methodology is based on the PDCA (plan-do-check-act) and RBT (Risk Based Thinking)

PDCA+RBT (plan-do-check-act and Risk Based Thinking) is an iterative five-step problem-solving process typically used in business process improvement. It is also known as the Deming cycle, Shewhart cycle, Deming wheel, or plan-do-study-act.

PLAN
Establish the objectives and processes necessary to deliver results in accordance with the expected output. By making the expected output the focus, it differs from other techniques in that the completeness and accuracy of the specification is also part of the improvement.

DO
Implement the new processes. Often on a small scale if possible.

CHECK
Measure the new processes and compare the results against the expected results to ascertain any differences.

ACT
Analyze the differences to determine their cause. Each will be part of either one or more of the P-D-C-A steps. Determine where to apply changes that will include improvement. When a pass through these four steps does not result in the need to improve, refine the scope to which PDCA is applied until there is a plan that involves improvement.

RBT (Risk Based Thinking) 
Risk-based thinking ensures these risks are identified, considered and controlled throughout the design and use of the management system. In previous editions of management systems, a clause on preventive action was separated from the whole. By using risk-based thinking the consideration of risk is integral.
