How We Provide Value

​

Mountainside Consulting provides value by bringing an objective, experienced outside perspective to identify what’s actually driving delays, waste, errors, and performance issues—without the internal bias, habits, or politics that often hide the real problems. Instead of guessing or relying on opinions, the consultant maps the real workflow, measures where time and effort are being lost, and pinpoints the constraints that are limiting output and consistency. From there, they build practical improvements the team can actually follow—clear processes, standard work, better coordination, smarter scheduling, cleaner handoffs, and stronger accountability—so operations run smoother with less firefighting. The result is better throughput, fewer mistakes, reduced cost, improved customer experience, and a more stable, confident team that can scale and improve over time.​

Our Purpose

Our purpose is to help organizations save money and build stronger, more dependable systems. We believe effective operations create clarity, stability, and opportunity—for both businesses and the people who support them. By strengthening processes and reducing waste, we help our clients operate more efficiently today while building the capabilities needed for long-term success.

​

Our Values

Our values are the standards we hold ourselves to in every engagement. They guide how we learn, how we work, and how we show up for our clients.

Honesty
We commit to transparency, objectivity, and clear communication. We provide practical, fact-based guidance and set realistic expectations, ensuring our clients can make informed decisions with confidence.

Hard Work
We believe meaningful improvement requires discipline and effort. We continuously invest in our own skills and preparation so we can deliver thoughtful, thorough, and reliable support to every client.

Community
We respect the people closest to the work and believe the best solutions are built collaboratively. We engage with teams as partners, strengthening relationships and shared ownership throughout the improvement process.

Growth
We never stop learning. We actively build our capabilities—individually and collectively—so we can better serve our clients, adapt to new challenges, and deliver solutions that evolve alongside their organizations.

​

What Our Services Look Like

Our services are structured, practical, and tailored to each client’s needs. Engagements typically begin with a focused assessment to understand current processes, challenges, and opportunities. From there, we provide clear recommendations, targeted improvement initiatives, and hands-on support to help teams implement changes that deliver measurable results.

Clients receive straightforward insights, actionable plans, and guidance grounded in proven improvement methodologies. Whether supporting a short-term improvement effort or a longer-term transformation, we focus on delivering solutions that are sustainable, aligned with your organization, and built to strengthen performance over time.

LEAN & OPERATIONS

​

Improving Flow, Reducing Waste, and Stabilizing Performance

​

     Operational problems often show up as delays, rework, frustration, and inconsistent results. Our Lean and operations work focuses on identifying the root causes of these issues and addressing them systematically.

​

We help organizations:

• Understand how work actually flows

• Identify waste and bottlenecks

• Improve process clarity and stability

• Establish clear operating standards

• Build habits of continuous improvement

 

     Our focus is not on deploying every Lean tool available, but on applying the right tools in the right order to produce measurable improvement.

​​

Our team is full of forever learners and we chase the knowledge of our craft every day. We have obtained established credentials for Lean Six Sigma and for other methodologies such as Professional Certification including but not limited to OHSE, OSHA, ISO, and PMI.
