simple and teach and implement the fundamentals. We will make
sure that your customers are happy with deliveries and you have less
invested in capital with higher market share and profits.

5. “85% of the reasons for failure to meet customer
requirements are related to deficiencies in
systems and processes… rather than the
employee. The role of management is to change
the process rather than badgering individuals to
do better.”
- W. Edwards Deming
O&S Solutions

you from success are:
