The Corner OfficeBusiness Process Improvement “Gary Gack has a great knack for making process improvement simpler and more practical after distilling the most important parts of the leading process improvement frameworks. This knack helps his clients gain better business results without getting lost in the jungle of competing and overlapping standards" - Corporate Quality Director Process-Fusion offers training and coaching on a "low calorie" version of Lean Six Sigma DMAIC - we focus on the core essentials to deliver cost-effective solutions to business process problems. Our approach is optimized for joint business and IT teams, as IT is often the limiting factor in process improvement initiatives. Software and IT Process Improvement / Risk Prevention “I’ve worked with Gary for over 5 years through several engagements. Gary’s deep knowledge and vast experience have made him an invaluable partner and contributor to our transformational IT initiatives. Gary understands IT as a business, merging his impressive knowledge of Lean Six Sigma with several decades of experience in large-scale project management and troubled project turnaround. What I’ve appreciated most about Gary is his pragmatic approach and ability to cut through unnecessary complexity. He’s not going to propose a plan that doesn’t have a clear path to execution and measurable results. I always look forward to another opportunity to work with Gary. I would also strongly recommend him to anyone in need of a sound, “do-able”, business-relevant solution to an IT problem.” IT Executive Process-Fusion offers assessments and consulting assistance to help software and IT groups improve quality and efficiency and collaborate more effectively with business partners. I emphasize the importance of "translating" software management issues into a form appropriate for a general management audience in my forthcoming book, Managing the "Black Hole": The Executive's Guide to Software Project Risk Technology Project "Turnaround" “Since we hired Gary as our turnaround expert we have made huge strides in bringing our project back from the brink of collapse! His guidance, experience and honesty set the stage for a successful project re-launch. He has taught the project team so much, was able to get the right people in the right roles and remove layers that were over-complicating the project. He's been easy to work with and extremely supportive. It's not an easy task to get the Business and IT teams to work cohesively, but Gary has done just that! He has become an invaluable resource and I highly recommend him.” - Business Process Owner We prefer to work in prevention mode, but unfortunately we are often called in to remediate risks that were often preventable.We have extensive experience working in the "no man's land" often found at the interface between the business and technology providers, both internal and external. Our "honest broker" approach emphasizes win/win, not fault finding.
