Brad brought passion with good communication skills that motivate supervisors and a union shop to change work habits to create individual lean solutions at each work center. Brad kept the time line and goals in line with management expectations. I recommend Brad if a change agent is the driving need to improve efficiency.

It was a privilege to meet and then work with Brad over several weeks last year. Brad has wide breadth of background in different environments, which contribute to his ability to provide meaningful and actionable suggestions for improvement. He came into our organization and helped identify opportunities to improve our material flow processes. The results have been very positive. Its obvious Brad enjoys what he does. He approaches his work with intensity, yet in a playful manner that generates enthusiasm around Lean and CI in general. He is happy training, problem solving and even rolling up his sleeves to work alongside the team. I would certainly recommend Brad to anyone looking to enhance their understanding of, and ability to apply, lean tools.

I have worked with Brad on more 3 Continuous Improvement projects involving work flow and quality. His knowledge on this subject is the best that I have found and with each opportunity Brad was able to help my team improve through-put and quality. His collaborative and sustaining approach was welcomed by those new to lean concepts. Brad is my go-to consultant on anything lean - he has the answer and can help you get the results you need.

I had the pleasure of working directly with Brad, while I was at Quality Ingredients. Brad helped our team make significant improvements on set-up reduction. He leveraged his breadth and depth of experience, across numerous industries, to help members of our team gain better insights into how lean concepts could improve their contributions. Brad understands the challenges associated with the ‘liquid’ processing industry and high volume mass production industries. By sharing real experiences, and providing thoughtful challenges, the members of our team were able to immediately connect and most important…learn. Brad is a consummate professional I recommend without reservation.

Brad’s was on my Lean team while I was at Eggo,, we were they envy of other teams across the division due to his efforts. He was very practical. He understood hands on details of day to day maintenance and manufacturing associates. He related to common man, the tech person, the HR team , and up the plant manager. He was then able to translate to management realizable goals to cut cost and streamline methods. I highly recommend his services. Viable results, likeable to all, and efficient at the details.

Brad introduced lean to our organization in a way that connected with all levels of our employees. He developed an extraordinary connection with our manufacturing employees and got them actively engaged in the process and lean thinking. He understands the process and is able to translate that into everyday understanding and application

Brad worked with ORBIS to develop our original, business-level, value stream map in late 2005. That initial engagement created the framework for our lean journey and resulted in numerous follow on projects through 2011. Brad helped us design and execute breakthrough events in the areas of value stream mapping, SMED, 5S and other core aspects of a lean business system. As we learned more about flow, Brad led and educated us to really start at the end of the value stream. Ultimately, we created a "pull to the shipping point" process that led to consistent inventory production, bottleneck removal, and clear vision of product and process flow through our business. This focus and application of lean principles enabled ORBIS to solve several long term service and inventory flow issues. I have personally enjoyed working with Brad and his insights and education over the past several years. His contributions to ORBIS success were numerous.
