Here’s a sample of one client testimonial:

“Jeff Sipes has taken us on an extraordinary lean journey over the past 18 months. He is viewed by our leaders and employees as a partner and colleague whose wisdom is valued and quickly integrated. His analysis of our aftermarket parts business doubled our business revenue while simultaneously dramatically improving customer satisfaction. Jeff's work on our internal processes (assembly, paint, and shipping) contributed to major improvements in performance. Simultaneously he led our managers and employees through a lean thinking curriculum that has influenced how we think and operate as a business. User friendly, humble, and open, he inspires respect and adoption from employees. Jeff is my partner in our business journey for as long as I am in my job.”
