Our Guarantee... TOC Center
is a different kind of consulting company. The majority of our projects
are conducted on a results basis, so you don't pay until you realize the
expected results. We couldn't offer this unless we knew we could deliver,
so you know your project will be a success.
Our Focus...
Let's face it the most scarce resource in companies is the time of its
leadership and people. Efforts that are not directed toward the longest
improvement levers not only fail to produce results, they rob you of your
most scarce resource...time. Over the past 25 years TOC has proven to be
the most effective process for driving focus in companies. Independent
research shows that the results from applying TOC are much greater and
come much faster than any other improvement process. (read more)
Our Process...
Creating change can be one of the biggest challenges in any organization.
TOC Center has been on the leading edge of the facilitating change since
the publishing of The Goal more than 20 years ago. This landmark
bestseller, read widely by managers around the world demonstrates the
power and effectiveness of Socratic learning. Today we employ proven tools
that cause people at all levels of an organization to take ownership of
the TOC principles and their application within the company. This process
harnesses the powerful, pro-change emotion of "the inventor," unleashing
the energies of everyone in the organization to make the needed changes.
Our People...
The TOC Center team consists of individuals with 10 or more years of
proven success in operational improvement. Our senior leadership has been
on the leading edge of operational improvement for 25 years or more and
have been instrumental in the development and advance of Theory of
Constraints in particular. Our team understands how to tailor TOC to the
client's specific situation and needs and how to focus your existing
improvement processes such as Lean, Six Sigma, Visual Manufacturing, and
TQM to accelerate results. (meet our Leadership Team)
Our Results...
Actions always speak louder than words. What really sets us apart from
other firms is the results our clients have achieved through our
processes. Routinely increasing our clients Throughput 25% or more within
3-4 months is like financial alchemy to companies. The ability to produce
more for only the cost of raw materials adds millions to the bottom line,
expands total margins, and fundamentally changes the entire valuation of
the company. Follow the results link to see some of the more than 100
success stories we have been a part of over the last 16 years.
How we work:
-
We agree up-front on the results to be achieved
-
We
base our fee on those results and you only pay as you reach the
pre-determined results milestones. (If you prefer we also offer a fixed
fee option.)
-
Our fee is always small
versus your results
-
We focus you and your team on the longest
levers for generating those results. You want results fast and so do we,
so we ensure that there is little or no wasted effort or time.
-
For every project we create your unique
"Throughput Operating Strategy" providing a simple, clear picture of
"what good looks like", so everyone in the business from the
top-executive to the shop floor team, knows exactly how they contribute
to increasing Throughput ensuring that efforts remain focused and
aligned.
-
We
utilize proven Socratic tools and methods that create ownership in the
new Throughput Operating Strategy so rather than the typical resistance
to change, we get the powerful positive emotion of the inventor working
for the changes.
-
We
work closely with management and supporting resources to establish and engrain the
new ways of operating, coaching everyone to competence and confidence so
that the process is self-sustaining.
-
We keep you informed with
regular Steering Committee meetings to ensure that the project is
meeting your expectations.
-
We communicate frankly and
directly about what is needed at every level of the project to ensure
that the leaders and implementation are doing their part to generate the
results.
