Organic Drive Advisory
​

The extensive knowledge and experience gained over the years, across a wide range of industry sectors, has lead to the demand that this expertise be deployed on a professional services basis. The consultative arm of Organic Drive, Organic Drive Advisory, combines this industrial experience with a background in management, strategic, and operations consulting, and has now undertaken projects in areas spanning biofuels, food manufacture, separations processes, and water utilities, to name but a few.

​

The professional services provided have required an assorted collection of approaches. WIth regards to general efficiency, yield and quality improvement in the process industry, a non-exhaustive list of approaches could be:

​

  • Programme Delivery

  • Management turnaround

  • Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE)

  • Theory of Constrains; Six Sigma; Kaizen; Planning and Labour Control; Line Balancing; Process Mapping; Split Solving etc

​

In addition to the generalised operational and strategic approach above, Organic Drive's specialist chemical engineering expertise can also be used to undertake process specific techniques, such as pinch analysis, and other methods requiring deep knowledge of the process industries and the underlying physical and chemical phenomena.
