The Republic has no need for men of Science.

Value Proposition

The New Science of Fixing Things will work with you to improve your company's technical problem solving skills by focusing on product performance and reliability. Our work will remain narrow in scope, but we are keenly aware of how to make the greatest positive impact in the shortest time.

We know how to solve technical problems quickly. We know how to capture that knowledge. Because of our association with thought leaders in the field of learning and development, we know how to effectively teach others to do what we do.

We are an international company. Because of our exposure and interest in cultural differences, we know how to get small groups that work internationally to work together. We know how to assemble those groups, not just for short-term tactical needs, but for meeting strategic objectives with respect to knowledge-capture, and using that knowledge to competitive advantage.

Because of our work with senior executives from engineering, manufacturing, finance, and logistics, we know how to maintain a narrow focus, while integrating what we do with principles of lean manufacturing, cost control, human resources, and, ultimately, the value your customers demand. The New Science of Fixing Things will keep our focus on product performance and reliability, and our tactics in phase with your business strategy. We will never put our strategic goals ahead of yours. We know that we can best meet our strategic needs by continuing to advance our ability to do what we do best; solve problems fast, improve our technology and deliver it to you faster and better, asking you to help with delivery.

That is our value proposition.

Our goals are to:

  1. Train and develop professional technical problem solvers
  2. Work with you to do it faster to expand depth and reach
  3. Build an effective knowledge capture system

As we meet those goals, we will keep these facts in mind:

  • Adults learn best in small groups with multiple skill sets
  • System level problems cannot be addressed by working in functional silos
  • E-FAST is a powerful tool that leads to effective tactics when used by a team trained to work at the systems level
  • Blended learning is the best way to maximize learning. It combines E-Learning, pre-learning, coaching and classroom training.
