Knowledge is the sum of information and experience. We combine expertise in academic techniques with the practical experience gained from many successful projects.  

 

V&S’s roots lie in applied university research. Or being more precise, in two of the most famous production management and logistics institutions, the IFA in Hanover and Fraunhofer IPA in Stuttgart. After carrying out numerous, very different projects our consultants possess an efficient combination of techniques and branch expertise. We are always getting to know new and interesting plants. We have an intimate understanding of typical processes. We know what works and where the catches are. Our customers profit directly from these valuable benchmarks.

 

Success can only come from implementing change. We develop and implement solutions directly on the shop floor.

 

The Japanese call it “Gemba gembutsu”. Right where it all happens i.e. in the workshop, at the assembly line or in the development office. We will seek out waste with you and remove it. Step by step and sustainably. In doing so you will always profit from directly realised solutions, instead of hearing perfectly presented concepts.

 

Performance flows from passion. We are committed to performance orientation and allow ourselves to be measured and remunerated by success.

 

The aim of all lean activities is improved value-creation in your production and office processes. The yardstick here is always your customer. Because your customer is only prepared to spend money on value-creation. Together with you we will define the tangible improvements which we want to achieve for your value-creating processes. And we allow ourselves to be measured by these targets – in Euros and cents. We will only be successful when you are.
