A COO for Hire Who Really Cares
About Your Success
When was the last time you worked with a consultant who wanted to be an extension of your team instead of an arm’s-length advisor who flies in on Monday and out on Thursday? At Stockman Strategic Solutions, we believe that companies should understand what it takes to optimize their business processes and productivity so they can achieve their goals. We apply more than 20 years of strategic and tactical expertise to helping clients in the Aerospace & Defense, Automotive, and General Manufacturing sectors develop and implement continuous improvement measures that resolve their biggest problems so they can operate profitably.
Achieve Clarity in Addressing
Strategic & Tactical Issues
Stockman Strategic Solutions helps you bring things into focus. Whether you want to go somewhere new or return to a place you’ve been, we have the practical experience and expertise to help you meet your goals.
Should you require lean and business transformations, an operating partner, development of key performance indicators (KPIs), integrations, acquisition assessments, company and facility start-ups, and cost reduction strategies, we will help solve your challenges.
We get to the root of your needs by using over 20 years of financial experience, statistical data analysis, value stream mapping, and placing boots on the floor.
We’ll even spend time with you after-hours, including evenings and weekends, to help you focus on matters that may be difficult to address during the workday.
Regardless of the scope of work, our journey starts with you and your team understanding the deliverables we develop with you or provide to you based on our collaboration. We track the status of our work visually and statistically and always tie it to a return on investment (ROI). We also provide sustainable countermeasures — tools for using our solutions after implementation. At Stockman Strategic Solutions, everything we do is transparent, and every engagement is designed to add value to your operations.
