Customers

From fast food to online investing, customers value a consistent, frictionless, and error-free experience. How do you deliver that to keep up with the competition? Standardization.

Employees

Employees spend 30% or more of their day struggling with rework, corrections, and data transfers. Standardization cuts drudgery and embeds know-how.

Data

In a classic case of “garbage in, garbage out” the latest automation, analytics, and AI technologies require large volumes of standard data to reach their potential.

Technology

Existing systems’ features and capabilities are painfully under-used. Meanwhile, new digital automation technologies struggle to find valuable business use cases.

Overlooked Business Value

Find—and Fix—Your Business's Blind Spots

Layers of cognitive biases and misperceptions are hardwired into the human brain, causing costly problems for businesses. But they also offer a valuable improvement opportunity—one that manufacturers overcame long ago by standardizing production and distribution operations. Today, standardizing knowledge work, or white-collar work, presents massive benefits for executives willing to think differently.
