DAK Consulting

Our mission at DAK Consulting is to help organisations to secure year on year improvement in performance. We do this by supporting the development of in house CI capability using practical work based improvement projects. Often this includes activities to deal with gaps in performance management processes or to secure cross functional engagement with the delivery of a common set of business improvement goals.

In addition to improving today´s operations, we help organisations to continuously improve new product and capital project delivery processes to deliver growth and industry leading profitability.

In short, we work with you to build on existing good practices and challenge barriers to change to accelerate the delivery of lasting business benefits.

Let our consultants help you and your team to deliver your future business improvement goals. Alternatively sign up for one of our DAK Academy train the CI practitioner workshops @ www.dakacademy.com

Works Management

Every month, Works Management (WM) shares examples of best practice across the entire spectrum of manufacturing business operations. WM supports senior and operations managers in their crucial decision-making and investment plans. WM raises, debates and resolves the strategic issues important to manufacturers; WM explores, informs and educates on the processes, technologies and services that enable efficient operations and the development of profitable supply chains.

In a market full of me too magazines and product books, one thing sets WM apart from the rest. Original, authoritative editorial features on the topics that really matter. Every issue of WM covers key topics affecting the core departmental functions of a manufacturing company, from the top floor to the shopfloor; from strategic issues to the hard-won lessons of real world case studies; from one end of the supply chain to the other. Our experienced, award-winning journalists and regular freelancers breathe manufacturing; they understand the challenges manufacturers face and they source, research, produce and deliver their stories with a passion for the topic.

Every day, the WM website provides a single source of information organised into four separate areas, Manufacturing Management, Information Technology, Hardware & Software, Materials Handling & Logistics, Manufacturing Operations & Services, each with its own news, feature archives and events, video, white papers and more. At the heart of each section is a comprehensive supplier directory.
