Industries we know
Six sectors and the situations mid-sized companies bring us. These are typical problems, not client stories: no company is named because none exists.
Manufacturing
Typical situations
- A plant grows faster than its planning and scheduling
- Two product lines compete for the same capacity
- An owner wants a successor team in place within three years
Distribution and logistics
Typical situations
- Customers want faster delivery than routes allow
- A warehouse moves; the old process comes with it
- Margins thin as fuel and wage costs rise
Professional services
Typical situations
- A firm has outgrown founder-led selling
- Partners disagree about which clients to serve
- Utilisation falls though demand is steady
Retail and consumer
Typical situations
- A brand sells online and in shops with two sets of rules
- Range grows, stock turns slow
- A regional chain considers its first foreign market
Private health and care
Typical situations
- A small group adds sites and loses coordination
- Waiting times grow with demand
- Staffing costs outpace fees
Software and technology
Typical situations
- A product company adds services and loses focus
- Engineering and sales plan on different calendars
- A founder steps back from daily decisions
