Testimonials
We have seen significant improvements in results and have adopted the principles in our planning and operations efforts.
His insight into the oil and gas industry is invaluable, and his knowledge of best practice in manufacturing has added measurable value to several of our investments.
...substantial improvement in product delivery and resultant reductions of inventory. The catalyst for these new processes was the Strategic Planning workshop lead by John de Wardt.
His recent corporate strategy development work resulted in a set of strategic initiatives that are already beginning to deliver value only a few months into their implementation.
John de Wardt provided us with a straight forward, hard driving, no nonsense approach to strategic planning that is still helping us define and achieve new business goals.
John’s emphasis on rigorous planning has resulted in tangible and measurable results in the area of drilling and completing wells. A true step-change.
Case Studies
Oilfield Rig Throughput Doubles
A program that revamped the workflow in sub assemblies and final assemblies enabled a major oilfield supplier to double the throughput of their facility. Critical elements of success were the sub division of the final assembly into suitable sub assemblies and the development of efficient work centers.
Pressure Vessel Fabrication Time Cut by 27%
A "Design to Build" process improvement program cut the manufacturing time of very large diameter heavy tar sands processing vessels by 27% with an aggressive goal to continue the reduction.
