Thanks Ronn Cort for the shout out. Scott is a great example of the highly skilled Practitioners we have at NLP.
Just a shout out and recommendation about Scott McDuffee with NEXT LEVEL Partners®, LLC: I've worked with "lean" consultants throughout my career. Not many of them can successfully integrate the "people" and the "process" as well as Scott does. He understands and skillfully communicates that implementation of Toyota Production System (TPS) practices is as much "culture" as it is "deliverable". Not one or the other - it's both. During a SMED event at Dunmore's Brewster site, I was able to speak with many of the team members working with Scott. Not only is Scott skillfully explaining the techniques and processes of a SMED event, he is weaving the Kaizen cultural element into the team members. Everyone I spoke with was suggesting to me that, "we can do this all the time...." YES! The team is beginning to understand that Kaizen is a relentless improvement toward an ideal state. It is not only continuous improvement events - it is a "flow" where we all work on improvement (BEHAVIORS) that positively impact key business measures (KPIS) all the time! Here is a brief video of Scott hitting on some key points with some of the team. "Right tools. Right materials. Cart is expected to be ready...." I rarely make a recommendation like this, but if you are in search of a person to help drive not only the PERFORMANCE side of your business, but also the PEOPLE side, I can't give a better recommendation than Scott McDuffee. #gamechanger #culture #strategy #TPS #kaizen

In this case study, a PE-owned, $480M Medical Device Contract Manufacturer with 17 different locations was faced with customer pressures to improve their on-time delivery and to reduce their lead times. The financial performance of the business was not up to expectations (EBITDA and Revenue) and high scrap rates at some of the facilities was hindering operational efficiencies. Through our work together we achieved: 🔸 $4.65M increase in operating income in 8 months 🔸 $712K reduction in scrap cost 🔸 64% average reduction in lead times 🔸 Improved on-time delivery at top 4 sites: Before: 55% - 65% After: 92+% To learn more about how these results were realized, read the full case study here: https://lnkd.in/gnK5XdcP #CaseStudy #PrivateEquity #MedDevice #NEXTLEVELPartners
