Operational Improvement
Helping you take a Realistic Approach to your Operational Improvement
Creating an efficient and effective business operation means placing equal importance on your people and your processes.
Combined Minds helps you do just that.
At the heart of our approach is a focus on identifying and eliminating the barriers that are causing inefficiency within the business operation.
Whether it is inefficient processes, excess inventory, storage capacity, overproduction, unnecessary waiting times, or Leadership & Management skills, culture, or employee engagement, we can help you to identify it and then work with you to overcome it.
A thorough analysis of your business operations, policies and processes will identify areas for operational improvement, streamlining and cost-saving.
Working in Partnership to Make the Changes your Business Needs
Following our assessment of your business, we will create an action plan with recommendations and we can support you to implement the necessary changes.
We aim to provide your teams, leaders and senior leaders with the tools, techniques, guidance and training, to become a high-performing team and eliminate anything that stands in the way of progress.
Creating a High Performing workplace requires Engagement and Input from your Teams.
Have you ever thought of asking for improvement ideas from the individuals who might know best?
A Combined Minds Employee Engagement Survey is an anonymous feedback survey that everyone in the business can complete. Then we provide a full report and a debrief session on the findings.
Whilst this can be a daunting exercise, Leadership teams that are open to candid and sometimes brutal feedback, go on to drive significant improvements to their business because the ideas for improvement are coming from the employees.
I want to improve how the business operates. Where do I start?
Boost Your Business Success with Our Operational Improvement Health Check.
Our ‘Operational Health Check’Â is designed to give constructive and objective feedback on key elements of the your business that influence how effective and productive the business operation is.
The Health-check would involve an onsite visit by an operational improvement advisor. They will then interviews with the business leadership, management and employees, observe processes and workflows, ask about policies and standards, and conduct a site walkaround.
The documented feedback will include ways in which Combined Minds and our expert associates can help you to develop your leadership skills, streamline your business and create a High Performing Workplace.Â

★★★★★
“I have had Chris working on my clients project for a year now, the contract originally started off as a 3 month contract, however Chris’s professional attitude and capability saw him being extended numerous times.
It was a real pleasure working with Chris over the past year. He represented himself to the highest standard and I always got glowing feedback off the end client of mine. I would recommend Chris to any future employer/client of mine. Chris would be a real asset to any company moving forward who is wanting someone to help with implementing Lean methodologies or wanting someone to help with their full lifecycle business projects..”

“We asked Chris to come and take a broad look at our operation and systems to see if there were any areas that we could improve or change. We identified 1 key area that we was causing us a lot of time and money and Chris helped our management team to drill down to the root causes and find a whole host of new solutions that have helped to improve our service.
Chris also managed a major operational relocation project for us at short notice. With his assistance the site was cleared in 6 weeks and with no additional cost.
I have found Chris to be very professional, personable and knowledgeable, and he has felt like one of the Fresh Start team.
I am looking forward to working with him again on some of our new initiatives.”
