Balance strategy execution and constant crisis management

A medium sized Biotech company’s biggest concern was to execute its strategy whilst managing frequent crises.  The company had a complex portfolio of products and had had several product recalls due to sub-standard processes and risk management. Fabrice addressed several of the company’s short and long term challenges by implementing a business system and operations governance to ensure leaders and employees focused on the important topics and their resolution using LEAN Management principles, tools and framework.

A risk assessment of the high revenue streams, the set-up of a Lean approach for new product launches enabled management to identify investments required as well as executing its strategies for new product launches while continuously improving standards and operating procedures. Daily management of Operations also enabled the company to manage issues efficiently and drive accountabilities amongst different teams.

Often LEAN Business systems provide a framework for a company to deal with chaos whilst staying focused on its long term strategic priorities.
