DESCRIPTION
Operational Excellence: A Journey of Transformation from Surviving to Thriving
IS THIS YOUR COMPANY?
• You are unable to hire additional qualified people in this current economic condition.
• Customers are complaining that your products are costly, deliveries are not on time or quality of your products and services are deteriorating.
• Customer needs are quite diverse and you cannot cope up with customers’ needs.
• You are struggling to manage the growth.
• You are facing difficulties to manage your expected level of profit.
• You are cutting current operating budget knowing that this might harm your future growth.
• You have excellent strategies on place, but facing difficulties to execute them.
The ever changing landscape of customers’ demands and volatile nature of economic conditions threaten survival of companies if they do not produce and deliver Faster, Better and Cheaper. In the quest of fulfilling customers’ expectations, companies must not lose sight of the most critical factor in the business - PROFITABILITY. The question remains: HOW?
To answer this question, SUKAD is holding a two-hour workshop on “OPERATIONAL EXCELLENCE” on July 28th, 2010.
