Asset Performance Improvement

The  i-Quantum Solutions Process incorporates a proprietary method and web application - COMPASS™ to assess the performance of an organization in 4 key aspects: people, work process, support systems and plant performance.

This enables i-Quantum Solutions to build a comprehensive gap analysis (qualitative and quantitative) of client operations on which practical improvement roadmaps are built. We provide a holistic improvement program that the client organization can engage staff so that sustainable improvement (tangible economic and organization performance gains) is achieved.

The whole process is supported by in depth quantitative analysis of costs, uptime, manpower activity and work activity to deliver a comprehensive economic model.

COMPASS™ is a configurable to any type of assessment, for example:

  • Project delivery.
  • Operations and maintenance.
  • Operations readiness.
  • ISO 55000 asset management.
  • Supply chain.
  • Contracting strategy and management.
  • Reliability.
  • Information security.
  • Data and document management.

Contract And Commercial Management

The successful management of project and operational costs depend upon accurate and timely information to ensure effective decision making. This relies on a comprehensive approach in identifying cost and schedule risks and the management of those risks to reduce commericial uncertainty. We assist through informed evaluation of competing costs to determine best value criteria and ensure that essential decisions are made correctly. We provide the resources, processes and applications to support the delivery of the most effective contract and commericial management.

Supply Chain Effectiveness

Supply Chain initiatives typically focus upon reducing the cost of outsourced needs, through leveraging spend, via bundling and clustering needs. While our processes recognize these opportunities, it does not rely exclusively upon them to deliver reductions in supply chain costs. Hence, the full potential across each section in a supply chain is not delivered for multiple reasons in a complex business. We identify these opportunities and can implement the improvements from global best practice.

Operations Knowledge

Great value resides in the knowledge of an operation’s personnel through several years of investment. This critical knowledge is lost with turnovers and attrition, particularly with a more mobile maturing workforce.

I-Quantum Solutions has developed a proprietary process to capture critical knowledge for use and reuse via a unique web application - KNOWLEDGE CAPTURE™. This process provides training for new staff as well as a knowledge base for remote organization support and learning.

Graphic Design For Programs

Our view and experience is that communication is a vital element of a good change management program. Good communication is engineered to convey leadership direction and engage the organization. We work with the organization to design and communicate the right company or project identity that will generate the best response from the organization. Our ability to fuse creative graphic design skills with our domain knowledge of business operations significantly differentiates us from a typical graphic design approach normally employed.

Market Analysis

We are able to design and administer market research programs. This includes designing electronic market research survey questionnaire and data gathering process for the client, coordination of the market research program and conduction of benchmarking studies.
