The Company

Hoekstra Management Support helps companies to implement improvements to their business processes. Hoekstra Management Support specialises in the food industry and provides support from the initial idea right through to final implementation.

Generally speaking, there is a wide range of techniques (tools) available to help companies improve their processes. The list of techniques includes, but is not limited to: Pareto, Multi-Moment Analysis (MMA), TOC, SMED, SPC, TQM, EFQM, INK, 5S, Six Sigma, Lean, JIT, OEE, Deming PDCA, SIC, the Business Balanced Scorecard, and so on.

Usually, only a limited number of these techniques are needed to achieve significant, groundbreaking process improvements. 

But more importantly, continuous improvement must be embedded within the organisation to ensure that improvements are sustained in the long term. Eliminating waste and focusing on activities that add value are the key priorities and must become an integral part of the corporate culture.
