Increasing
the Bottom Line
BBK Performance Improvement clients
typically are:
Company leaders who realize they’re not
achieving revenue goals or who are unable
to accept new business due to capacity
constraints
OEMs/Tier 1s that require increased
throughput/better performance quality to
satisfy production
Lenders who are concerned about risk
Investors who are seeking to improve
the operational performance of portfolio
companies
The Performance Improvement Process
We closely examine a company’s existing
performance vs. desired performance to
determine the best solutions for bottom
line improvements.
While every situation is unique, our
process includes:
- Gaining a clear understanding of the
current situation
-
Examining the client’s key performance
indicators
-
Determining whether the company is
implementing sound measurement
methodology; understanding what they’re
measuring and how it relates to bottom line
performance
- Culling the measurements list to remove
unnecessary factors
- Analyzing current process capability
- Comparing objective data with that of
companies of similar size and technologies
to reveal areas of weakness
- Designing programs or reprocessing
current systems

Choosing
the Right Program
Our financial tools enable us to measure
a specific project’s potential contribution to
the client.
We generally assess operational strength
in terms of quality; we measure first-time yield in
defective PPM's, scrap dollars, rework, repairs,
not achieving run rate, and the cost of poor
quality. We take the measurement results,
equate them against true cost, and prioritize
projects in terms of those that will result in
the best return.
The BBK Difference
Most consultants assess, write white
papers, make recommendations and walk away,
leaving clients to manage change on their
own.
BBK brings in professionals that
can actually do the work:
- Our staff includes a wide range of process
technology experts
- Many have senior engineering and
manufacturing experience
- Our experts are self-starters who require
little (if any) training

fix problems
-

that are founded on performance improvement, analysis
and implementation
Our professionals have a breadth of
expertise unmatched in the industry. As a result, BBK
clients realize quality throughput with current
processes, reduction in defective parts per
million, improvement in throughput without
additional capital investment, reduced cost
and increased profitability. |
