There’s a method to implement a business process optimization project properly. It’s a combination of getting buy-ins from the teams involved and integrating the right benchmarks and assessments into the business requirements for the desired results. It shifts slightly based on the organizational culture and corporate needs. Topside’s methodology starts with mapping out all of the existing processes within the organization, including how each of the methods connects.
Then we begin to target the weak links and opportunities for optimization. Then it’s all about metrics and management reporting through the creation of dashboards. These features help to give an updated gauge of how the organization is progressing versus the expected timelines.
This starts to notice those redundant or siloed areas, and we can begin to implement process improvement benchmarked to the industry in those areas. All the while continuing to refine processes to stay on track with budgets and timelines. Then we take what we’ve learned in these quick fix areas and develop the remainder of the revamped organizational implementation
Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) involves the management of the maintenance of physical assets of an organization throughout each asset’s lifecycle. EAM is used to plan, optimize, execute, and track the needed maintenance activities with the associated priorities, skills, materials, tools, and information. Our methods cover the entire asset lifecycle, including design, construction, commissioning, operations, maintenance, and decommissioning or replacement.
In order to maximize profits, it’s a necessity to manage assets to gain the greatest return on investment effectively. Topside Solutions’ asset management experts have a proven track record with actual results. We offer coaching and training for organizations to optimize assets through our rigorous asset performance improvement process. Through the use of industrial engineering processes, we help companies:- Reduce operating ratios, adding better value to stakeholders and better service to clients
- Strengthen agility – matching fleet size to economic demand – especially during times of financial unpredictability
- Achieve an optimum balance between predictive maintenance and run to failure
- Improve asset efficiency with improved maintenance practices and increased utilization with better business processes
- Strengthen maintenance operations reliability and efficiency through performance improvements
We work across industries providing clients with real-world knowledge, best practices, and a management rigor system that improves productivity, reinforces compliance, and sustains leadership.
TopSide Solutions partners with our customers to reach their business objectives by transforming their data into insights and those insights into actionable items. We help companies identify what data is collected currently and the best method for collecting data that doesn’t exist. We assist in defining key performance indicators, KPIs, typically in safety, service, productivity and cost. Our database and dashboard experts then create easy-to-use dashboards from the KPIs. They transform the data, build scorecards and a dashboard, ultimately turning metrics into graphics.
With this visual tool employed, your company is armed with the information necessary to target performance inefficiencies. The dashboards provide insight into the performance of core business processes. Those insights identify areas of inefficiency, allowing you to focus on a target area and deploy your process improvement team to the right place. Your Process Improvement team will identify opportunities for behavioral change and implement corrective actions. The continuous monitoring of your dashboard will reflect process improvement changes in your Key Performance indicators.
