Outcome(s)
We were able to reduce costs in excess of $1.75M from the cost reduction
projects stated above and realized additional cost savings through other cost
reduction projects that were done later. The other projects resulted in savings of
more than $10.4M for the next two years. ATS created effective processes that
increased labor efficiency, and ATS reduced risk and compliance issues through
better audit functions and accountability. ATS simplified the Standard Operating
Procedures for the day-to-day operations staff, which enabled them to implement
requirements and exceed client expectations, resulting in increasing productivity.
We started in a company culture that was fear based. After meeting with
employees to gather information on what could be changed with the culture,
we created a management report without employees being attributable to the
comments. We discussed the results with executive management and they
realized something needed to be done.
Executive management supported the need for action and changes began to
take shape to improve the company culture. From the change management,
the culture became an open platform of ideas, willingness, and embrace for
excellence in best value, new business, sales growth, empowerment of each
location through centralized control.
ATS implemented these corporate culture changes and quantified results to
ensure they were received by the employees as a positive change. We changed
processes for the bidding of new business, hiring of capable and experienced
writers, and recruited new staff for preparation of new contracts.
ATS helped the company improve its overall reputation internally and externally
to the marketplace. As a result, the organization was able to increase revenues of
more than $55 Million over a five year period.

SUSTAINING PROFITS IN A FLAT MARKET
SO YOU’VE REDUCED THE CORPORATE OFFICE HEADCOUNT –
THOSE BUSINESS IMPROVEMENT AND FEASIBILITY STUDY GUYS
NEVER ADDED ANYVALUE ANYWAY!
You’ve cut site staff and exploration teams and stopped discretionary spend – especially those
consultants! And you’ve taken a pay cut and reduced the board size. What next? Will these
cuts keep the business afloat if metal prices stay subdued for another six months? What if the
market improves – can you respond?
While eliminating staff and cutting one-off costs helps the bottom line temporarily, the real
question is: how can we maintain profits in a sustainable way in a flat market?
Let’s start by considering what the business owner or shareholders want – Return on Capital
(ROC). ROC is Profit divided by the Capital Base. Profit is Revenue less Costs and the Capital
Base is made up of our Assets and People. So how can we improve revenue, costs, asset
utilisation and organisation effectiveness? By looking at each of these four drivers we can
identify areas where operational improvement can occur that will deliver sustainable profits.
