Operational Excellence
Faced with global competition, progressively lower barriers to entry and the relentless tightening of Operational Risk Management requirements, virtually all industrial companies, independent of the industry sector, are confronted with a continuous need to improve their performance across all dimensions.
Selecting a partner to support you in operational transformation requires a deep level of trust. With our long operator heritage, as part of our DuPont legacy, we understand the realities of genuinely delivering a step-change in results, safely.
Sustainable Operational Transformation
Our capabilities have been honed over more than 50 years of working in high operational risk environments and high asset intensity industries where margins are tight. This real-world experience of delivering measurable results has made it clear to us that the only real solutions to our client’s issues are those that are truly integrated across all dimensions and developed jointly between their people and our profoundly experienced technical experts and management consultants.
DSS is highly successful in supporting our clients in sustainable Operational Transformation, ensuring not only that the improvements are discovered and implemented, but that the technical operating model, the management operating systems and the necessary skills, mindset, and behavioral elements are developed and deployed in a unified way.
Our industrial heritage truly does give us a differentiating and unique value proposition:
Truly unified operational know how – achieving and sustaining the desired performance levels requires integrated operational risk and value delivery excellence – not one or the other; they need to be approached and driven as one.
Integrating people & technology through leader-led cultural transformation – having the best equipment and best business processes is pointless if the culture that integrates the two doesn’t harness the resulting performance. In fact, with the right culture, many organizations overcome deficits in their equipment and processes. Our long operational heritage has made us experts in coaching leaders, building skills, and changing established ways of working so company culture can transform and evolve to maximize the potential of people and systems.
Step change transformation – Continuous improvement is too often hindered by the speed of change. It’s essential that companies reach their targeted performance levels rapidly and then continue to improve faster than the competition. Our people, along with our integrated approaches and tools, help you to become and stay a top player in your industry.
