Industrial engineering for your business

Getting it right

For your business to perform effectively, your staff and key decision makers need the right information, in the right format, at the right time.

We understand that the investigating and reporting of business performance issues can take time from the day-to-day running of your business, and sometimes cannot be done effectively without extra resources. Most managers are in tune with problems and inefficiencies that arise but simply don't have the time or resources to address them until they become critical. In-built performance measures (KPIs) in current ERP management software can also be misleading and contain unknown assumptions.

Jenam can measure and assess performance, create meaningful key performance indicators and provide tailored advice and facilitation of solutions with the aim of improving workflow efficiencies. Deliverables can include the preparation of professional reports or presentation to your business. We can be the additional resources you need to efficiently and effectively investigate, measure, analyse and advise on the performance area you require.



Our aim

Jenam Business Improvement has been helping businesses plan and implement improvements since 1995 and we want to see as many Australian businesses prosper as possible.

We’ve seen the disappointingly huge decline in manufacturing activities over the last few decades, with businesses either folding due to overseas competition or moving overseas to utilise cheaper labour and materials. Often these decisions are made without considering Plan B – the possibility to cleverly redesign your business to match efficiency here in Australia.

If you’re looking to improve your business then you’ve probably already noticed that opportunities exist to either reduce costs, increase production output or diversify your business purpose. Having the time and resources however to examine and plan improvements can be a challenge. Jenam can be the extra resources and expertise you need to analyse, plan and facilitate the improvements you require. The team at Jenam are happy to offer free advice to get you started on your own improvement journey and acknowledge that if you grew your business from the ground up then you know much more about it than anyone else. The more you do yourself the more comfortable you will be with the plans and changes.

Business improvement falls into 2 main categories: Optimising and Re-engineering.

Optimising comprises maximising the efficiency of existing resources of the business such as machines, labour and materials in order to achieve the best possible performance without further significant capital expense. 

Re-engineering comprises defining where you want your business to be and then engineering how to achieve it. 

We're ready when you are to begin your improvement journey!


Tools for improvement

The most effective tools to support management decisions and improve business operations


Flow Charting & Work Methods Design

Flow process charting is the simplest tool for recording and analysing simple processes. Identify non value-adding activities, excess movement and delays to pin-point opportunities to reduce costs and increase output. We can help you design efficient work methods and teach you how to use this valuable tool to continue improvements.


Process Simulation

Discrete Event Simulation (DES) enables experimentation and optimisation of complex processes at a fraction of the cost of shop floor trials. Avoid costly mistakes by ensuring capital investments in plant and equipment and human resource levels are optimum for the process you are designing or improving.


Productivity Problem Solving

Productivity issues can be difficult to solve as the symptoms can appear anywhere in a process. We'll help you find the root cause of problems in any department of your business.


Business Systems Analysis

Today there are many ERP and information management packages in use, and most packages will have standard KPIs and other performance measurements to assist and support management decisions. We'll help you create and ensure the KPIs you use are accurate and informative without the unknown assumptions that some standard KPIs include.
