The question

Three shifts, three ways of working and a maintenance backlog nobody owned. We gave the line one plan and one owner. The brief we agreed fitted on one line, and we came back to it every Friday.

What we did

A team of 1 partner, 4 consultants worked on site for 20 weeks. We started with the people doing the work, not the reports about it, and tested each change on a small scale before asking anyone to commit.

What changed

−38% unplanned downtime, measured by Halberg Industrial’s own finance team a quarter after we left. The method, the model and the dashboards stayed behind with them.
