Value Chain Optimization

A Horizontal Perspective on Processes

The Executive Challenge

The cycle time on a signature product is too long, and you're committed to reducing it.  The problem is, you only control one piece of the process. Several of the most critical factors happen in marketing, before the product gets to your operation. You have no control over their decisions, but every change they make has a major impact on your ability to keep on schedule.

Organizing a business into separate functions - marketing, accounting, production, distribution - has many advantages in efficiency, but one serious disadvantage: there is seldom much attention to processes that span several functions. In other words, many executives take responsibility for a vertical function, but few, if any, have responsibility for taking a horizontal view, across the entire value chain. Dominion Digital can provide
that perspective.

The Dominion Digital Difference

With value chain optimization, Dominion Digital takes a different approach to process improvement. We apply the tools of Lean Manufacturing and Six Sigma, but in a broader fashion, beyond one department. We trace processes through the company from start to finish, exploring how changes upstream and downstream impact it, and identifying gaps in handoffs between departments.  Then we provide sustainable solutions to give you:

  • Greater predictability
  • Greater manageability, including measurements and controls
  • Cost reduction
    opportunities
  • Cycle time reduction opportunities
  • A plan for governing changes in process

Dominion Digital brings objective, right-sized
solutions to you and your organization.  Your agenda is our agenda because we view you as a partner, not just a client. We make it our mission to make you and your organization heroes to your company and your stakeholders. The only way we measure our success is through your success, by helping you realize your desired business results.
