Our work includes creating strategies, reorganizing companies, and planning and making changes. We handle each part separately, but we know they are connected. That’s why we suggest a combined approach, especially when big changes happen in the industry.We collaborate with Boards of Directors, CEOs, and senior leaders from various departments and business areas to solve strategic problems and seize opportunities for both the short and long term. Our work is based on detailed analysis of important products, markets, competitors, and technologies, including digital innovations, to support clear and data-driven decisions.

We support our clients in:

Developing sustainable and effective corporate or business unit strategies and overseeing their seamless implementation across all organizational levels.

Structuring, analyzing, and evaluating investment projects through to successful transaction completion, while ensuring alignment with the client’s overarching strategic and entrepreneurial objectives.

Operations, Technology, and Industry Solutions
Our operations practice focuses on helping clients improve efficiency, lower costs, and boost overall performance. We pay special attention to machine reliability, production speed, product quality, and how effectively the organization works.

Our approach covers all stages of the production process as well as critical supporting functions, including maintenance, procurement, Sales & Operations Planning (S&OP), and supply chain management. We engage at every level—from the shop floor and control rooms to maintenance workshops and back-office operations.

We help clients navigate the digitalization journey by providing a clear understanding of the implications of Industry 4.0 for their business. We work with them to develop tailored roadmaps that harness the transformational potential of these technologies. In most cases, our starting point is identifying opportunities to optimize equipment performance and achieve sustainable increases in EBITDA.

Industry 4.0 is reshaping traditional models of capital investment and risk/return analysis. The ability to make smaller-scale investments and “start fast/fail fast” requires more agile decision-making and governance processes

We adopt a holistic approach, recognizing the interdependencies between people, processes, and assets. Our practice also offers a robust set of proprietary and standardized tools, a deep understanding of critical KPIs, and access to the latest insights and innovations through our academic and industry partnerships.
