CTM

CTM was incorporated in 1986 with the belief that any type of company could dramatically improve productivity by reducing cycle time throughout their business and squeezing out waste. Also, using appropriate methodology that were developed by Toyota and therefore reduce cost and greatly improve flexibility CTM was a pioneer in this thought process back in the 1980s. Over the years CTM has delivered high quality services to manufacturing, healthcare, wineries, and a number of other organizations. Our people believe in building a lasting process, not delivering a series of programs, and their time and talent is focused on this singular goal. We know that if our clients’ organizations are to compete in the years ahead they do not need “consultants” or programs; they need a totally integrated, internal process that improves productivity, quality, flexibility and the company’s ability to change faster than the rate of change itself – and the management of that change is based on the concept of cycle time. We have continued to incorporate new ideas to improve our Lean implementation process. We have learned with our clients what it takes to truly go through a transition from traditional operating practicing to a true Lean operation. Three years ago, we developed and delivered our Lean Framework which contains the Lean Certification Belt System. This program has been delivered to many companies with great results and has become our total focus in assisting companies through the improvement transition
