Diagnose. Stabilise. Improve. Sustain.
Stage 01 · Diagnose
Into the real data in week one: transactions, stock, service, margin, downtime. No workshops before the facts.
Stage 02 · Stabilise
Recovery governance and cadence, escalation routes and weekly performance forums. Root cause established with evidence and a number attached, so the size of the prize is agreed before anyone spends money.
Stage 03 · Improve
DMAIC on the biggest causes with the people who own the process, delivered in weeks rather than quarters.
Stage 04 · Sustain
Control plan, dashboard, cadence and trained people stay behind. The saving keeps compounding after the engagement ends.
Find the problem. Fix the cause. Improve the result.
Delivered, measured and banked.
Every figure comes from work Shane O’Regan delivered in industry, measured against an agreed baseline. Read the standard of proof before you read the numbers.

Service under pressure, brought back under control
Service performance falling short of customer commitments, backorders above £1m, supply unstable and escalations reaching senior level.
Transaction-level diagnostic across SKUs and demand, recovery governance and cadence, inventory and replenishment changes, supplier actions and structured performance management.
Service restored, backorders cleared to a fraction of their peak and operational control handed back to the team with the reporting to hold it.
