SYMPTOMS

Sound familiar?

If you recognize any of these issues, there is almost certainly immediate improvement potential.

Output below plan

Your machines are running, yet output remains below expectations.

Inefficient workflows are tolerated

Outdated routines are no longer questioned.

Lack of ambition

Management assumes further improvement isn’t possible.

No ownership

Goals are set, but follow-up, accountability and results are missing.

Ad-hoc firefighting

Incidents dominate the day, no rhythm, no structure.

Sub-optimization

Departments optimize locally at the expense of total performance.

IN PRACTICE

Practical

We improve performance by strengthening the interaction between supervisors and their teams. Many team leaders are strong technical experts, but not always people managers. That’s why we coach them directly on the floor in setting priorities, steering their teams and following up. We work with KPI’s that we define together, stay close to reality, keep it practical and measure what truly matters.

What we achieve

We support organizations in identifying and implementing concrete improvements in their operational performance.

Vocum created the awareness and need for the management system and provided us with a procedure of systematic goal setting. This allowed us to roll the cooperate goals down through the organization with specific and realistic expectations for each management level.

What one of our customers has to say about us

During the analysis it was determined that a potential saving of 20% was possible on direct and indirect labor costs, which corresponds to €2.4 million on an annual basis.

After finishing the project, Vocum set up audits together with one of our employees. This way of working allows us to safeguard the system and take further steps in the future. All this has led to achieving the targeted savings.
