Don’t Take Our Word for It
My past experience with other Lean consultants was they would come in, give base information, point out all your failures, and then leave. I am very glad that OMEP does not operate in that manner. To have OMEP truly come alongside and partner with us, to get down in the trenches with us, has been both refreshing and rewarding. It has been hard work, but we can all see the progress that has been made since we began this journey together.
