Here are just a few things our clients have had to say about their experience with the IMPAC® productivity system.

Chaz OAO

The program encompassed a diverse range of the activities within our organization including all administrative departments (finance, accounting, HR, sales etc) and supportive areas (warehouse, maintenance, transportation). The program also allowed us the opportunity to start thinking about our current organizational structure and the activities towards restructuring it will start soon.

From skeptical start, I am pleased to report that the program has exceeded our expectations not only with regard to what has been achieved to date but the opportunity it has provided us.

The financial benefits generated during the program will provide us with a 2:1 return on our investment and this amount will rise in the future. More significantly is the change in the behaviors of our people.

Clarity if objectives, meaningful measurement of achievement and a proactive approach to daily problems together with improved communications are the major results from the behavioral change of our employees.

Veropharm, OAO

To achieve the goals of the project it was necessary to make changes in the way our managers, supervisors and production staff thought about their roles in our operations.

Changes in behaviour and newly implemented management systems allowed for achieving the goals determined at the beginning of the project:

  • Productivity increased in all departments by 9% to 30%
  • Overtime hours consumption was reduced by 8% to 10%
  • The throughput on the 10g ampoule line increase by 40%

Reporting systems was improved in a way that all variances and arising problems are immediately identified and corrective actions are taken.

The management systems have been changed, there have been changes in the planning procedures and in the methods of evaluating results.

We achieved good results in the warehouse operations and in labour savings. These results have consolidated and they keep improving.

In 2006 we started another, more difficult, project with IMPAC, with the goal of improving the productivity, and therefore reducing the costs, of the merchandisers organization that refills the supermarkets all over Italy.

We’re achieving very good results and there are signs that show additional improvements.
