Technical consulting and HR consulting, by the people who helped grow an Illinois plastics manufacturer ten-fold.

Former HR Manager, global thermoforming manufacturer.
Most manufacturing problems aren't purely technical, and most HR problems aren't purely about people. A safety program is only as good as the processes it protects. An ERP implementation fails without the right training and adoption. The thermoformer you just bought won't produce to capacity without the team behind it.
We spent more than 25 years running both sides of the same company. We know where the technical decisions and the people decisions meet — and we know what happens when they don't.
Typically 25–250 employees. Plastics, medical devices, electronics, food packaging. Illinois-based; we work with clients throughout the United States.
Tell us what you're working on. We'll tell you honestly whether we're the right fit — and if not, who might be.
