“BALANCED ORGANIZATION” or “4 OPERATIONAL FORCES” is our philosophy covering modern operations management practices and excellence.
It’s simple, it’s comprehensive and it’s using all existing and well-known methodologies – it is over methodologies!
Why organizations waste money and opportunities? Why organizations become less effective in long distance? Why operational managers fail to stabilize OPEX changes?
Because they forget about balance…
Arek Burnos, Senior Consultant:

The Balanced Organization
Every organization needs to be balanced. If we leave any of the 4 forces weaker or increase strength of one too fast our organization will get into trouble in longer time frame. This is critical to develop and implement operational excellence methodologies in balanced way. Whatever you perform nowadays… Lean, SixSigma, BPM, TOC or any other approach – you need to remember about balance.
Let’s look to 4 operational forces:
We try to provide 3 comprehensive services phases to our customers:
1. Analysis phase – cross-functional analysis performed by BalticBerg consultants (each specialized in his/her operational area of knowledge)
a. Where are we?
b. Is my organization balanced? What is pushing my organization out of the balance?
c. What are potential “quick wins”? What are estimated benefits?
d. What are potential “long-term wins”? What are estimated benefits?

2. Planning phase – creative and realistic planning
a. What to do when? Which actions will go first?
