Before we arrive on-site, we work together to craft a meaningful engagement scope with clear problem definition and achievable targets.
We go to the gemba to understand your current-state operations, gather data, listen to operators, and identify areas for improvements.
We lead a collaborative workshop with your team to engage all stakeholders, brainstorm ideas, and white-board new concepts.
Back at Eckhart, we formalize concepts into actionable solutions, develop models to simulate your process, and define your implementation plan.
We deliver executive-ready reports that clearly outline the actions you can take, the anticipated ROI, and your immediate next steps.
