Since 1985 I have worked with many large and small companies. The benefits gained have been huge and many have remained customers for more than ten years.
Often what most business people want to know, when they start exploring working with us, is an indication of the immediate results they can expect. Here are two top line examples of the results obtained over the past 20 years, one from a small company and one from a relatively large company who serve totally different markets:
- A small company in the south of England increased its turnover from 1 million to 4 million in two years with a significant increase in profits.
- A multinational company with a turnover of 600 million USD increased turnover to 1.4 Billion in two years.
TOC works in almost any type of organisation, and as an example of this, to contrast with the two for profit examples above, a hospital we worked with increased the number of operations it could undertake by 25%, at the same time as increasing the complexity of the procedure undertaken by 18%, whilst reducing significantly its waiting list. Operationally these and many other companies have discovered that using TOC applications as part of their business strategy increases competitiveness significantly by:
- Reducing the time to deliver an order by 50 percent or more
- Increasing on time delivery into the high nineties
- Increasing productivity by between 25 and 40 percent
- Reducing the amount of inventory needed to support growing sales by more than 50 percent
- Reducing time to market and product development cycles by more than 25 percent.
And most importantly by enabling them to rapidly and sustainably to increase sales by developing much better marketing and sales strategies.
It is not possible to calculate the total benefits achieved from our work as the improvement processes implemented continue to work after the engagement has ended. Two things that are clear: - Companies that have used TOC have a sustainable process of ongoing improvement...
- Companies that have used TOC have had to resort much less to downsizing and redundancy as they are more able to grow sales and weather economic downturns.
Goldratt-TOC Ltd with
our partners work with clients to assist them to achieve their business
goals faster than they otherwise could through the application of TOC
and where necessary other local improvement processes such as lean
manufacturing. We have been working with TOC and Dr Goldratt since 1985 and many of our customers have worked with us for more than 10 years. Often we help customer recognise that they can achieve
much more than they originally envisaged. We
are a knowledge business which transfers knowledge to customer teams,
then we support those teams, to develop improvement plans and to
execute their plans. Our approach
is pragmatic and where necessary hands on. Our clients gain knowledge
and skills to maintain and accelerate the improvement process. John Tripp
has worked with Dr Goldratt, his partners
and TOC since 1985. As a public speaker and workshop presenter John is
described as humorous, and a performer who it is impossible to sleep in
front of. John supports a number of world wide management development
programmes. Learn more/...
