Service Engagement Aims
When we work with our Clients we have a range of industry benchmarks and KPIs we use to asses quickly how effective the systems and processes of the Client Organisation are. Then, with assessment, we set targets to aim for and work towards achieving them. Here are a couple of examples of what we might measure and what we typically strive to achieve:
Benchmark / KPI | Typical of Industry | Prior Successes |
Revenue Per Person Per Year | $220k to $240k | Typically around $480k |
Revenue per sq m per month | $300 to $400 | Typically $600+ |
Please note this data is based on a business of less than 25 Employees running a single shift in South East Queensland. Factors may affect results in other scenarios (e.g. level of automation) and geographic locations.
We may use these benchmarks to assess your Organisation before we decide to work with you. If some of your benchmarks are substantially sub-par we may elect to decline working with you.
Example Projects
- Aluminium Fabricator – 3x more throughput (and thus 3x more revenue) with an increase of just 40% in labour costs throughout the Organisation.
- NDIS Service Provider – 22% increase in time available to provide direct support with no additional labour costs.
- Car Dealer Service Dept – Review and re-organisation of processes to improve service throughput by 50%, worth around $480k a year in additional margin.
- Aerospace Jet Engine Service – Reduction in lead time from 60+ days to around 21 days including waiting for Client Authorisation of MROH activities.
- Signage Company – Moved to a facility 60% larger and provided a layout to cope with 260% more throughput with the same equipment & personnel.
- Laminations Company – 300% improvement in throughput using the same process and personnel, whilst also improving Quality and equipment reliability.
- Agricultural Construction Company – Automation of administrative processes to allow the production of BOMs, Cut Lists, Despatch Lists, Installation Manuals and other process documentation in minutes, using the selection of a small range of variables only.
- Construction – Using parametric models in their preferred CAD system to develop drawings of customer specified structures in less than 15 minutes that would have otherwise taken days to produce manually.
- Complex Manufacturing Facility move – We were allowed to stop production for 2 weeks to make the move. We devised a plan that allowed the move to be undertaken where the loss of production was just 4 hours.
Every system that seeks to add value, no matter what the industry, can benefit from our knowledge and expertise. Feel free to call us on 1300 00 IIAU (4428) to discuss how your value adding process can be enhanced for the greater good.
