Approach

 

We are deeply focused on the large value creation from Lean improvements to your products and processes.   Our approach is Experienced, Dynamic, Engaging, and Sustaining.  

Experienced – Directly learned from the top Lean experts in the US and Japan

ATC has extensive experience in value creation that started in Toyota Assembly.  It is there that they learned how problem-solving tools are applied to products and processes for large and sustainable value creation.  In later roles in finance, cost reduction, product development, sales, and innovation, they learned how supporting roles and product development enhance or create value.

Dynamic – A process that evolves with people

ATC takes a flexible approach to apply the tools of Lean and CI.  There isn’t one way to apply these tools nor one path.  Every situation requires a unique approach to leadership and execution.  We coach your leadership team on how to identify waste and value creation opportunities.  And, we develop their abilities to problem solve and implement solutions that eliminate waste and create value.

Engaging & Sustaining – We coach on how to see waste and develop solutions

We engage at all levels of the organization.  We provide the right temperament to motivate teams to make the concepts of improvement understandable, beneficial, and motivating.  We lead with a high level of passion for improvement that is contagious.  This is critical to sustaining changes.  Our clients rave about the way we engage with people and develop talent to become better problem-solvers for Lean processes.
