Our projects

At Foothills Consulting, our projects reflect real challenges turned into measurable results. From reducing downtime to streamlining workflows and strengthening teams, each success story shows how we help clients achieve lasting impact

Downtime Reduction & Compliance Upgrade

Downtime Reduction & Compliance Upgrade

Problem:

The plant was losing millions annually to unplanned downtime, outdated SOPs, and compliance penalties. The client, a leading player in the industrial manufacturing sector, was grappling with significant operational inefficiencies that directly impacted production output and profitability.

What We Did:

We mapped critical processes, introduced automation for routine checks, created digital SOPs, and aligned operations with OSHA and industry safety standards.

Timeline:

6 months (Audit → Redesign → Pilot → Full Deployment)

Results:

The plant achieved a 32% reduction in downtime and passed its compliance audit with zero penalties.

Owner-Dependency Breakthrough

Owner-Dependency Breakthrough

Problem:

The client, a fast-growing mid-sized service company, had reached a critical inflection point. Despite strong market demand and a dedicated team, growth had plateaued. The primary challenge was owner dependency — the founder was the nucleus of every major decision, from approving client proposals to resolving operational issues and managing supplier relationships.

What We Did:

We built a delegation framework, designed SOPs for all core functions, and set up KPI dashboards to give leadership visibility without micromanaging.

Timeline:

3 months (Discovery → Framework Build → Handover)

Results:

Within three months, the founder reclaimed 40% of their time, and profitability increased by 18% through scalable systems.

Workflow Rescue Program

Workflow Rescue Program

Problem:

The client, a growing Small and Medium-sized Enterprise (SME) in the logistics and supply chain sector, was struggling with escalating inefficiencies rooted in outdated operational processes.

What We Did:

We redesigned workflows, implemented affordable automation tools, and created adoption playbooks for the team.

Timeline:

10 weeks (Audit → Redesign → Training)

Results:

Process delays were cut by 50%, and the SME reported a 23% productivity boost in the first quarter.

Consistent Delivery Framework

Consistent Delivery Framework

Problem:

The client, a technical department within a large multi-division organization, was struggling with persistent delivery inconsistencies that undermined stakeholder trust and project profitability.

What We Did:

We established a lightweight PMO, trained the teams in hybrid/agile delivery, and embedded real-time dashboards to track project progress.

Timeline:

12 weeks (Training → PMO Setup → Mentored Delivery)

Results:

The department delivered its next two projects on time and within budget, increasing stakeholder confidence.

Career Advancement Accelerator

Career Advancement Accelerator

Problem:

Across several partner organizations, mid-level professionals faced a growth bottleneck. Despite having the technical skills and years of experience, many lacked structured pathways for professional advancement or access to mentorship that could guide them toward leadership roles.

What We Did:

We provided PMI and Lean Six Sigma certification prep, ran mentorship sessions, and created networking forums.

Timeline:

3–6 months per certification track.

Results:

92% of participants passed their certifications, and 80% reported promotions or new opportunities within 12 months.
