The Procon professional services approach combines process improvement
with information technology. Typically, there are many areas where
process improvements can be made that result in tangible savings to
our clients. We understand that our clients are facing significant
business issues in the marketplace and we have successfully partnered
with them to achieve optimum solutions. Product and service,
pricing and marketing is only the first step. Aligning people,
process, and information technology with a stated strategy can prove
to be the difference between success and failure.
Take this unassuming test. Look for the following conditions
indicating possible requirements for re-visiting a process:
- Requisite information is not available
- Over-management
- No clear process owner
- Process is reactive, rather than proactive
- Idle time delays completion of required tasks
- Redundant activities make up a portion of the process
If some, or all of these statements are true, you can probably
benefit from an operations planning & control review and achieve
some of the following benefits:
- Reduced Activity & Cycle Time
- Increased Availability of Resources
- Enhanced Productivity
- Reduced Operating Costs
- Improved Customer Service
