About Manufacturing Consulting Services, Inc.

OUR CLIENTS INCREASE THE VALUE OF THEIR FIRMS 200%-1000% IN 3 YEARS (Conservatively)

HAVE YOU?

Hello! My name is Tim Ward and I opened Manufacturing Consulting Services, Inc. in July of 2000.

Typically when I enter a business, I have never been in any firm in that industry. However, the tools of process optimization are independent of and indeed cross industries and economic sectors: process is process is process. Also, frequently, the tasks done in a given client’s individual operations are accomplished in silos… isolated from their other internal functions, and occasionally in competition with some of those other internal functions. Whereas individual functions may operate well, frequently tasks don’t flow well across functions, especially competing functions. My clients typically don’t need help with the individual work stations and functions: their Operations. However, they DO frequently need help with getting these tasks to flow from door to door in their organization: their Processes.

In addition to personally guiding many clients through the treacherous waters of Lean-Sigma Alphabet Soup, I have taught Project Management, Operations Management and Organization-wide Process Diagnostics and Repair at the collegiate level. Information in this site will reflect those bodies of knowledge as well.

I have done full plant layouts for 10 plants in 8 different industries. For some examples of my work please see the Case Studies Index.

One of my clients called me “Salt Lake’s City’s Most Creative Business Consultant” because of how I had helped him.  He made this BROCHURE for me.
