Before we can document, we need to identify and strategize. We’ll dig into the key areas of your business, determine who owns what process, and define what “good” looks like.
Business Process Improvement Consulting
Frustrated with your current business results?
Your team is stretched thin. They’re telling you to hire more people, but you’re not making enough money. You can’t justify the additional expense. Your team is inefficient, and you can’t seem to make things better.
Our business process improvement consultants can help you achieve your goals and scale your business.
What is business process improvement?
Think of anything you do in your business from start to finish — that’s a business process.
Consider your customer onboarding process as an example. By evaluating and streamlining the steps involved in acquiring and welcoming new customers, businesses can reduce onboarding time, enhance the overall customer experience, and increase customer satisfaction.
There are countless opportunities to improve your business process. This may involve automating certain tasks, simplifying documentation requirements, and implementing self-service options to expedite the onboarding process.
There are a lot of disciplines for business process improvement
Over the years, we’ve implemented a variety of process improvement methodologies:
- Lean Process Improvement
- Six Sigma
- Total Quality Management (TQM)
- Continuous Improvement (Kaizen)
- Plan Do Check Act (PDCA)
- 5 Whys Analysis
Businesses need something better than an off-the-shelf process. We’ll build something that works for you and makes sense for your team and business.
Does your business need a process improvement consultant?
You can grow by working harder, but we can teach you how to scale faster by working smarter.
Like finance, process improvement is a business discipline many owners didn’t learn along the way. You need an expert’s help. Our experienced consultants help your business run smoother and more efficiently, so you can focus on scaling your success.

Our 5 keys to improving your business process
Reshape your business, maximize efficiency, and boost profitability with our business process improvement strategy. 5 simple (not easy) steps to successfully incorporate process improvement.
Don’t guess your way through business. Document and optimize your way to success. You’ll have the clarity to take targeted action that gets you the results you want.
To build the documentation we’ll interview and shadow key people for each process. We’re going to see the work being done and come up with the best level of detail needed for documentation.
This only works if your team uses the documentation so we’re going to train your team and test the process to ensure everything runs smoothly.
After training, we can measure the utilization of business process documentation with tools like Trainual. This data-driven approach shows us if the process is working or if improvements need to be made. We can make informed decisions on clarity and ownership of tasks.
Your journey doesn’t end here. Our business process improvement consultants implement continuous process improvement and stick with you to ensure you continue to profit from the success.
