Turbocharge your manufacturing

Turbocharge Your Manufacturing

Slash Costs, Boost Profits, Free Up Cash, 
and Dominate Your Market Sector

This book is a practical, step-by-step guide for CEOs and senior leaders of manufacturing companies who want to transform their operation’s performance, without building new facilities or hiring more people.

Written by me, the book is structured as one extended case study, following a typical pharma manufacturing company, drawn from my 100+ real client engagements across the US, UK, Europe and Asia, as it moves from ordinary performance to best in sector.

You’ll look over my shoulder at every stage, making the approach directly replicable in any manufacturing environment – pharma, electronics, food & drink, engineering, or beyond, or even non-manufacturing companies.

  • How to build a Practical Vision of what your operation can realistically achieve.
  • How to cut lead times from weeks to days, to improve customer service, and free up working capital.
  • How to increase productivity by 50% or more, with existing resources, to reduce costs.
  • How to achieve 100% Right First Time quality, to eliminate waste, rework and defects.
  • How to align Support Functions, Planning and People with your new manufacturing pace.
  • How to measure, sustain, and roll out gains across the whole business.
  • How to apply further performance ‘game changers’ to capture the best customers in your sector.
