Improve your company’s processes and tools

With our experience in a wide variety of projects, we can design and implement tailored processes. With the right tools, these will enable your company to continuously improve. We teach you not only to use specific tools, but the methodology of solving complex business problems and improving your company’s performance.

Build a strong Continuous Improvement structure and governance

Together, we’ll ensure that clear governance rules are set within your company, so that the roles and responsibilities at all levels support each stage of the Continuous Improvement programme.

What’s Continuous Improvement (CI)?

No two companies are alike, but many of the challenges are similar. 

You want to decrease your costs, boost your revenue and cash flow, keep your employees and customers happy, increase your market share etc. All these ambitions can be successfully addressed with the CI methodology. 

In today’s reality, we should consider both Lean Six Sigma and Industry 4.0 as necessary, synergetic parts to drive continuous improvement. Digital tools will support your ambitions for continuous improvement. You can learn more about Industry 4.0 by visiting our Experience Centre;

Cases

Barry Callebaut

The collaboration between PwC and Barry Callebaut started with an assessment in different plants, leading to building a new vision and improvement roadmap. A successful CI pilot was launched in one plant, which has been the start of the implementation of a full programme and global CI culture. Barry Callebaut achieved significant savings and a sustainable approach to ensure continuity for future improvements.

Abriso

PwC helped Abriso to improve the communication between operators in production and logistics departments, to increase knowledge sharing as well as management visibility and connection to the shop floor. These objectives were successfully achieved with the implementation of 24-hour boards and a Gemba Walk in the plant.
