Experience That Creates Advantage

Kaizen & Flow

"At a GE Energy plant, Kaizen events led by our team freed 15% bottleneck capacity and removed $11M in slow-moving inventory. The real breakthrough was watching operators thrive as flow replaced daily firefighting."

Category Management & Strategic Sourcing

"Experience managing $150M in annual volume bids demonstrated that savings are leverage for growth. By aligning contracts, cost, and compliance across three GE businesses, the sourcing effort delivered $14M in audited savings while strengthening supplier trust."

Risk & Analytics

"At GE Capital, the development of Key Risk Indicator dashboards and RCSA frameworks passed OCC and Federal Reserve scrutiny. More importantly, these tools gave leadership the confidence to grow portfolios past $100B with visibility they had never had before."

Integration & Transformation

"In preparing businesses for divestiture and integrating acquisitions, success always hinged on people. A culture of ledger-validated decisions ensured transitions were smooth rather than disruptive."

What working with tbr ChangeWorks looks like:

From scattered effort to sustainable flow

  1. We start at the bottleneck.
    Every engagement opens with a clear‐eyed walk through the process, whether that’s an assembly line, an invoice queue, or a sourcing cycle. The first discovery is always the same: good people trapped by bad flow.

  2. Flow unlocks capacity.
    Using Lean, Kaizen, and Six‑Sigma toolsets, we strip out friction, balance workloads, and shorten cycle times. Teams see immediate head‑room—and the confidence that better is possible.

  3. Smart sourcing amplifies the gains.
    With capacity freed, we turn outward. Strategic RFX management, cost‑to‑serve analytics, and vendor‑managed inventory convert hidden supply‑chain waste into working capital and resiliency.

  4. Risk discipline keeps the engine running.
    New speed introduces new exposure. Key‑Risk Indicators, RCSAs, and vendor‑risk heat‑maps give leaders a real‑time dashboard so today’s improvements don’t become tomorrow’s blind spots.

  5. Change sticks when people own it.
    Through 100‑Day turnarounds, stakeholder road‑maps, and ChangeWorks Academy micro‑learning, we move the tools into the hands of the people who live the process—making better their new normal.

Result: a closed loop where flow, sourcing, risk, and capability reinforce one another—delivering on our promise that “better becomes sustainable.”
