“Hana led the successful transition of IESA to S/4HANA in 5 months, her drive, focus, commitment to total quality were critical to the success – the appropriate blend of being very demanding but fair. The project teams success has been recognised in the industry and the personal commitment that Hana demonstrated was 1st class leadership. She has subsequently led innovative approaches to Agile delivery on a SAP platform – not a trivial task. It was a pleasure to be part of a successful team under her dedicated and committed leadership”

"I have had the pleasure of meeting and chatting with Hana several times. She is one clever, switched on and motivated individual. Manufacturing processes are going to HAVE to change as we come out of lockdown. Instead of sitting and scratching your head why not get in touch with Hana first. Doesn't cost anything to talk!"
our approach
How will you move from Industry 3.0 towards Industry 4.0? We support businesses to create a SMART plan of digitalisation opportunities to save time and cost and drive sales, using a simple framework to enable successful incremental change. The first step in working together is to arrange your Digital Baseline Review, to baseline where you are now, and to identify your opportunity for Quick Win improvements. The review covers 4 Key areas:
How easy is it for your Customers to trade with you? Customer expectations continue to evolve towards real time responses and interactions, and they expect great experiences and personalisation. We help companies to simplify and streamline their Customer Journey, and to innovate to offer Customers something different, to drive increased sales, and to create ‘stickiness’ by maximising Customer value add. We make sure they can retain existing Customers and attract new ones
Underpinning a smooth Customer Journey there must be robust and efficient operational processes. Through expertise in Lean Continuous Improvement, we help companies to maximise productivity and reduce non value add. From order processing, production planning, raw materials handling, machine efficiency, finished stock, despatch to back office processes, we have a suite of simple and affordable tech solutions that will transform your processes
You cannot manage what your cannot measure. Using Digital Process Improvement we provide companies with access to powerful real time data, KPIs and insight, to enable them to take proactive control of their costs and performance. We help companies to better utilise internal and external data, through system integration methods
In a Digital world, in order to stay ahead of the Competition and continue to meet ever increasing Customer expectations, companies must strive to automate and innovate, using where possible the latest Technology. We help companies to define a clear vision and strategy for Industry 4.0 in the form of a Digital Transformation Roadmap, and support companies to move from Traditional Factory towards Factory of the Future, one quick win at a time
