OUR TECHNICAL APPROACH

WHAT THE HECK IS AN INVISION VALUE STUDY?!?

The speed of change can overwhelm even the best organization.

You are so busy “doing” that it is nearly impossible to voluntarily, Stop. Plan. And change.

Yet you need Solutions. Opportunities. Improvements. that will move you ahead of the competition without devouring your production calendar.

A value study is a high-intensity, short duration, “pressure cooker” where our team of expert Business Consultants and Improvement Strategists work with your team. A value study led by one of our Value Specialists will elicit and harness the best ideas of your team to create implementable solutions that work for your company and your customers.

These solutions will allow you to power through roadblocks, Creating. Massive. Results. Quickly.

YOU BRING THE GOALS – WE BRING THE PLAN

At Adapt Consulting, we’re not just Business Consultants, we’re improvement, project, and growth strategists.

Change is uncomfortable. Far too many improvement initiatives fail. One of the most common roadblocks we’ve witnessed in our years of experience – with companies of all types and sizes – is this: company norms. We understand this dynamic and know what it takes to excel when it comes to finding improvement strategies that work for you. We specialize in, simply put, getting everyone on the same page. Beyond that, everything we do is focused on implementation and creating tangible results for your organization.

PROJECTS OF ALL TYPES AND SIZES… WE’VE BEEN THERE

BIG

“Today your process came up with
things that I had never thought of.
The new idea being implemented
eliminates the foam by simply adding
more bulkheads– still accomplishing
the function, was a minor miracle.”
~ Design Engineer of 30-years

SMALL

We found a reason for the existence
of each element of cost, except one.
It took some digging to find out
why that section was needed.
Although small cost, the quantities
made it a beneficial candidate for
cost reduction.

COMPLEX

Identifying inefficiencies &
understanding accountability are
critical. Our process blasted
away old thinking, enabling an
improved, scalable method to
allocate resources over thousands
of infrastructure projects.

CONTROVERSIAL

The complex relationship between
federal, state, & local organizations
is well known. Our methodology
quickly cuts through emotion,
scope creep, & competing agendas;
& injects transparency into the
ever-changing landscape
of political challenges.

At Adapt, we use an organized, proven process to uncover and fix “Value Mismatch”

Value Mismatch = Spending money in the wrong place.

Value Mismatch occurs when the cost is disproportionate to worth in the eyes of the buyer / user

Examples: High cost / Low desirability OR Even Low cost / High desirability

How does this work?

  • Channel the motivating aspects driving the workplace and marketplace into packets of actionable Small Data
  • Transform this Small Data into well-understood functions to remove the emotional bias
  • Micro-allocate data (cost, weight, resources) to clearly show where the Value Mismatches occur between your user/buyer/company

The result?

  • Rational and actionable concepts to implement and accelerate your business outcomes
  • Price / Margin maximization

A TECHNICAL EXPLANATION OF VALUE MISMATCH:

The three data points represent:

Defined Functions, User-Driven Data, and Cost-To-Accomplish

InvisionValue™ Tackles All Three Zones:

The “Sweet Spot”

  • Represents great VALUE in its Cost-To-Importance Ratio
  • Major opportunity to skyrocket ahead of your competition
  • Opportunity to maximize price or margin

“Optimize Opportunity”

  • This is where a needed function is accomplished at a reasonable cost
  • Other zones have a higher potential impact, but big opportunities exist here

“Poor Value”

  • The cost to perform the function is higher than its perceived importance by the user
  • Users do not want to pay for unnecessary functions
  • Opportunity to streamline, simplify and improve quality

OUR APPROACH IS FOUNDED ON THE PHILOSOPHY THAT WHEN THE PROCESS IS IMPROVED, SO IS THE BUSINESS

We create superior improvement results by:

Bottom line? Our teams generate measurable and relevant alternatives that match YOUR unique needs. Through the identification of value mismatches, we address often-overlooked issues, and when those needs change, our flexibility begins.
