"we've always had persistent problems. I'm just loving this TOC implementation. We are getting immediate and definite breakthroughs".
Charel Vorster, Production Manager, Ingal Civil Products June 2010

Please note that some of the client results we report have been achieved whilst working in association with other TOC practices. We only report results here where our practitioners have had direct responsibility for and caused the significant improvements to the client’s business.   

“I would not be in business today if it were not for TOC, some of my competitors crashed during this recent bitter recession. What’s more we are doing very well.

David Leach, Owner, Look Print, Sydney August 2009

“Some of the standout results (they are all standout, these are the real biggies) …

  • I can sleep at night with the knowledge that the projects are where they should be and there is a workable plan for the completion of the home.
  • Clients have a completion date that is real.
  • I have been away on holiday twice since the implementation of our project board, this has been without the need to take a phone for fear of the need for my direction. More importantly upon my return everything is still in order.
  • We have clients that are in their completed homes that consider us their friends after the process of building their home. They tell us their personal news and take delight in us sharing parts of our lives with them. This is a real breakthrough.”
  • We recently won two national awards in our class for quality and we are building the homes 30% faster.

Kevin Norris, Owner Stonewood Homes, Matamata, New Zealand

“Everything is running smoothly in an unstressed environment”

“What’s more the reliability of the factory was a key factor in us winning new commercial business orders and we know we can produce them on time under the new system.

“If I had the time over he would have borrowed money from the bank to fund the project rather run the slow course of a 10 month mentoring program”.

Peter Clark, Owner, large custom kitchen manufacturer New Zealand

“The Theory of Constraints Logical Thinking Tools is the best method for building common understanding and agreement that I have seen in over 2 decades in industry that has taken me around the world”
Jason Furness, GM, Electrolux Refrigeration, Orange NSW
"Our plant at Orange NSW has met or surpased every global Electrolux benchmark for success. January 2010, Hans Strauberg Global CEO Electrolux

“The best thing about KI - You make the duct we want when we want it.”

Recent customer praise of Kavanagh Industries

“I have to spend less and less time on the factory floor trouble shooting and getting production to flow”

“We have lots more capacity now that we are better organised and can schedule properly.”

“We have a true pull system: The schedule comes from the customer. We do whatever they ask and resource accordingly”.

Aiden Kavanagh, Owner Kavanagh Industries, Sydney

We are more confident in ourselves when responding to the market. Now we can quote dates and know we can deliver.”

Bruce Drummond, Owner and MD, Millbrook Furniture, New Zealand

“I’m very pleased with that” commenting on the consistent and increased flow of product trough the plant (known for his understatements) Brad Johnston: Operations Director, Best Bar Reinforcements, Perth

“We were averaging 74 tonnes per day now that has jumped to 87 tonnes per day after only 8 days”. (+18%)

“We have to wait a while before we can say we are making more throughput but I can say we are making the same as before but so much more easily”. Terry, Finance Director, Best Bar Reinforcements Perth
We got enough space now to play cricket”, "Rework has virtually been eliminated" Gigangit, Production Manager, Best Bar Reinforcements, Melbourne
We have had some dramatic changes to the business in recent years including new ownership. However, we are still running the same system you helped install - it just works!" Paul Winterflood, Manager Production Operations, Mackies Group of Companies
alt"Over the period of 2008 thru 2009, during supposedly the worst economic conditions since the Great Depression, we have used TOC to unlock the hidden capacity in our business and sell it into the market place. The result of this has been to shift our Operating margin from 5.1% to 13.1%, our profit increased by $19.88m, and our volume went up by 6.5%, with no capital investment in capacity. Jason Furness, General Manager, Electrolux Refrigeration Plant, Orange Australia.
 

“We have lowest ever late orders in our entire history. From 70% late 6 months ago to just 2 orders late last week." “We now have the platform to take off like a fighter from an aircraft carrier and not lumbering off down an interminable runway like the Spruce Goose”, Bill Gale, Director Bambach Wires and Cables, Sydney
