When it comes to picking consultants, the most significant mistake many make is expecting a magician who can handle everything.
In reality, it's crucial to choose a consultant tailored to your specific company's needs.
One consultant might be excellent at enhancing your current factory's production, but they could end up costing you millions in unnecessary equipment if they lack experience in its procurement or installation.
Another might specialize in strategic development, while a third focuses on quality control, and so forth.
For new ventures funded by investment groups aiming to implement automation, a consultant unfamiliar with current automation processes can lead to poor management and significant waste. Simply adding automation without optimizing the product and production processes increases material waste.
What should you prioritize in a consultant contract?
After meeting with a consultant and understanding your business goals, you sign a consultation contract.
A good consultant builds on your existing efforts, avoiding past industry mistakes and providing a clear focus for the upcoming years. This doesn't mean they'll create a step-by-step plan ready for all unforeseen circumstances.
How much does a consultant cost?
A simple rule when choosing a consultant or hiring staff is, if you can't afford good people, don't hire anyone because opting for a cheaper option often becomes more expensive.
Determining if signing a contract with a specific consultant makes business sense is up to you and your enterprise.
Seeking an initial consultation always makes sense. I'm open to discussing your projects, and perhaps, we can elevate housing and panel production to the standards of a reputable European factory.
