Argo works across a wide range of industries: from corporate clients to
family-owned
businesses to private equity, always with the goal of achieving significant
business transformation.
"Argo’s approach was unique as they became a part of the team, rather than as a supplier. They were willing to listen to our existing approach and worked side by side with us to develop new joint best practices. More importantly they helped us implement these best practices which are now part of the fabric of the organization."
"Argo, Inc was the first company that I’ve retained that listened and delivered what I wanted. Their experts helped us build a foundation focused on quality that allowed us to drive operational excellence from a cultural standpoint. As a result we have achieved higher utilization, lower inventories and our claims have fallen 35%."
"In just two weeks, Argo reviewed all of the products we make at one of our North American factories, recommended those with the biggest potential for "VaVe" and in one week reduced the total cost of a valve by more than 70% - increasing its life cycle profits by over $4.5 Million. We had a working prototype in the field in less than three months! Furthermore, our people were trained according to Argo's knowledge transfer philosophy and now we are using their tools and techniques in all our portfolio products."
"Argo helped our 12-factory, $400 Million, Specialty Chemical business triple its value in less than 18 months. They not only identified where the best opportunities were but also implemented the improvements with our people, generating a significant improvement in profits and cash flow. After they trained our people, we continued with the implementation on our own. Argo not only helped to transform our results, they helped to transform our culture."
"I have a strong reluctance to use consultants. When I hire a consultant, I am not looking for people to tell me what I should be doing; I am looking for people that can do it. Argo is one of the few companies I have found that delivers results."
"The biggest asset Argo has is its consultants. Every single one I met had years of industry experience, worked very well with our people and achieved remarkable results in a very short period of time."
"Specifically, our lean manufacturing and value engineering programs are delivering tangible results as evidenced by the substantial profit improvement from last quarter."
