Diagnostics reveal conditions that are reversible and optimizable.

This client, a manufacturer of Automotive Electronics, was under pressure to improve quality and on-time delivery to their top client. Kaufman Global was asked to conduct a Rapid Performance Evaluation to rate the operation’s effectiveness, identify performance barriers and profile opportunities to quickly drive improvement.

The RPE was conducted with a small, joint KG-client team over the course of one day. Through a site tour, focus interviews and performance diagnostics scores, the team identified critical path-forward opportunities, including first-time-through metrics, workforce problem-solving capability, safety and product design engineering. The robust output and collaborative nature of the exercise enabled the client to quickly align on gaps and priorities and accelerate next steps.

“You were able to give us more information in a few days than the other consultants did in a few weeks.”
