Consulting Services That Helped Anchor Graphics Inc.

Leslie Goolsby’s Experience Working With American Management Services:

I would like to commend the work and efforts of your organization for Anchor Graphics, Inc. over the course of the last five months, particularly the efforts of Senior Consultant, Chuck Riney and Group Manager, David Almstead.

With the help of American Management Services, Inc., we have put in place key tools and processes to increase our level of profitability, team performance, and the accountability of our employees.

Here are some of the key items we have implemented:

  • A plant-wide Machine Utilization tracking program and successfully and consistently have seen rates go from 30% to over 100% in some areas.
  • Increased focus on operational and financial performance with focus on Productivity, On-Time Performance, Vendor Scorecard, Purchase Price Variance, Scrap and Waste Reduction, and Sales KPI’s that hold Sales Reps accountable with performance metrics.
  • Updated Flash Reporting and Weekly Management Meetings to review and address performance against key operational metrics.
  • A Predetermined Profit plan that incorporates our process improvements and actions for profit is in place, allowing us to put strong management focus on achieving targeted profit. Our monthly financial review now includes analysis of key variances to our plan, along with corrective actions.
  • Implementation of a pay-for-performance plan related to the predetermined profit plan to motivate our employees to strive for both financial and operational successes.
  • Restructured the organization to provide clear lines of leadership and authority, with those leaders serving as members of the senior management team to assist in the financial and operational reporting and achievement of our predetermined profit plan targets.

I expect the work described above to produce an incremental operating profit to our company of more than $2,622,634.00 over the next three years, an amount that far exceeds the cost of the program. My expectations have been met in an efficient and professional manner, and I will be happy to recommend the services of your firm and your consulting team to any prospective client.

Moreover, the professionalism and ability to have someone to lean on within your organization that truly has you and your business best interest at heart. Has been one of the best and most refreshing business relationships I have ever had in my 35-plus years in business.
