(Operational Efficiency & Process Optimization Audit)
Focus: A hands-on, on-site analysis of a critical business process to identify bottlenecks, waste, and improvement opportunities.
Ideal For: Companies experiencing delays, high costs, or quality issues in a specific department (e.g., production, logistics).
Outcome: A “Process Optimization Report” with a detailed map and a prioritized list of high-impact improvement initiatives.
Level 1: Core Concept
Name: The Efficiency Lab
Concept: A hands-on, on-site analysis of a critical business process to identify bottlenecks, waste, and improvement opportunities.
Level 2: Objective & Target Client
Objective: To directly observe and analyze a specific operational workflow (e.g., order-to-cash, product development, client onboarding) and provide a prioritized list of actionable recommendations for improvement.
Target Client: Companies experiencing delays, high costs, or quality issues in a specific department (e.g., production, logistics, administration).
Level 3: Process & Key Activities
Pre-Work: Review of existing process documentation and performance metrics (KPIs).
In-Session Activities:
Process Walk-Through: The consultant shadows employees to map the real process (vs. the theoretical one).
Waste Identification: Using Lean management principles, the team identifies the “8 wastes” (e.g., waiting, overproduction, defects) within the process.
Bottleneck Analysis: Root-cause analysis (e.g., using the “5 Whys” technique) on the primary bottlenecks.
Rapid Ideation Session: Brainstorming and evaluating potential solutions with the team directly involved in the process.
Level 4: Deliverable & Immediate Value
Tangible Deliverable: A “Process Optimization Report” containing a detailed “as-is” process map, a summary of identified wastes and bottlenecks, and a list of 3-5 high-impact improvement initiatives with an estimated effort/benefit matrix.
Immediate Value: The client gains an objective, expert assessment of a key operational pain point and a clear, prioritized action plan to achieve quick wins and long-term efficiency gains.
