Enterprises of all types, sizes and locations face a common set of challenges to their business operational efficiency. Some of these challenges include cost-reduction pressures, unexpected supply chain challenges, and digital disruption. These issues impact differently from one business to another but dealing with operational effectiveness is generally a straightforward process.
It begins by identifying opportunities for growth, followed by the implementation of Lean Six Sigma principles into your business model. This type of process improvement requires a combination of deep operational and sector experience. KPMG's Operational Excellence team has exactly this kind of experience, and we can help your company improve operations and assure quality while driving value through improved efficiencies in an organization, location, process, technology, sourcing and more.
The concept of operational excellence revolves around a transformation process in operations management that goes beyond the traditional event-based model of improvement. Changing organizational culture over the long term can be a process fraught with difficulty, even though the rewards are worth the time and trouble. KPMG is one of the top operational excellence consulting firms. We've found that to improve operational excellence within an enterprise, management must apply principles, systems, and tools that contribute to the sustainable improvement of key performance metrics.
