This chart illustrates the dramatic bottom-line impact in an actual client’s plant of TBM’s one-week Kaizen Breakthrough events. Over the course of 14 months, the client conducted one five-day Kaizen Breakthrough event per month, led by a TBM consultant. At the end of the period in this chart (the effort is ongoing), our client was realizing a cumulative savings, through waste elimination and new efficiencies, of close to $2.5 million. Their investment was less than 20% of that.
This is the substantial and sustained improvement you too can quickly achieve with Kaizen Breakthrough. To understand how truly effective this tool can be, we encourage you to join a Kaizen team during our next Kaizen Breakthrough Experience event in a client facility – and experience the rapid improvement firsthand!

“Our people are so passionate, they want to do this all the time. The reason is, we’ve never had a Kaizen event where we didn’t achieve or exceed our goals. We accomplish in one week what would typically take months to achieve. What has happened is that everyone eats, sleeps and drinks Kaizen.”
Some of our clients have videotaped their Kaizen Breakthrough events, to share the motivating experience with colleagues at other locations. Here is one of those videos.
