Step 1
Situational Analysis
Ervinas performs an in-depth evaluation of your current operational performance as well as wider trends in the industry. This provides the fundamental baseline for process optimization.

Depending on your needs and preferences, we are happy to tour your facility and meet staff members, as well as read company materials and analyze finances.
Evaluation
Combining your information with our objective assessments of the industry, Ervinas specialists will identify areas for improvement, analyzing and integrating all information to identify strengths, weaknesses, and potential for future problems.
Planning
Ervinas will then provide you a comprehensive plan to optimize your operational processes. We strengthen and build on your assets while limiting liability.
Confirmation
Move forward at your own pace! Whether your company would like to move full speed ahead or take a more phased approach, Ervinas is here to help you optimize your day-to-day processes.

Step 3
Realization
Once your targeted operations plan is formulated, we assure you have plenty of time to review the product and make sure it is in line with your organizational needs. After confirmation, Ervinas is happy to work with your team to increase worker engagement as the system is implemented. One-on-one instruction and group seminars are available, as well as long-term support as needed.
Alternatively, Ervinas offers full-service, professional project management. The following are the two most common situations where this is valuable:
Start-Up Investors
Investors who wish to establish a business, but do not have the expertise to operate it. In this case, Ervinas will manage everything from initial construction and capital equipment acquisition to branding/marketing, production, accounting, staffing and sales. These investors simply partake in the profits and equity shares, without the energy expenditure of running a business.
Scale, Transition, Turnaround
Enterprise scale, transition or turnaround management: Ervinas steps in to manage complex operations during a growth cycle or acquisition, then turns over operations to your team when the transition is done. For winding down, Ervinas steps in to manage complex financial operations until the assets are distributed and the business is closed.
Step 4
Assess & Audit
Plans are great, but results are decisive!
Ongoing monitoring provides data driven feedback to measure the effectiveness and value of your operational process system. Ensure timelines are met, costs are controlled, key performance indicators are achieved and check the return on your investment.
