Our business is built on referrals and recommendations from our customers. Here are some words from a few of our customers past and present:
"I have used Paul at two different companies, in two very different industries, and the results are always stellar. Paul is extremely effective at using his tried and true techniques to understand the challenge at hand, quickly identify the root causes then set in motion a plan to correct them. I would recommend Paul to anyone who is serious about improving their company with lasting results." Ric Davis, Exec Vice President, Cardtronics
“Paul Boots has been instrumental in transforming our workflow & process, in a fast-growing on-demand printing business. This was a very well balanced mix of technical skill set as well as communication & training focus - tailor made to our needs”. Renaud Besnard, Group Production Director, PhotoBox, UK
"Praesto Lean Solutions and Paul Boots have been working with us since 2000 when our lean journey started. Paul has brought concepts like flexing labor, Kanban, line balancing, In Process Kanban (IPK), capacity utilization, bottleneck elimination, mixed model scheduling and many others to our operation. Paul not only brings the concepts but he is there through the implementation including the necessary training for sustainment. The majority of labor flexing projects have realized 15% sustainable labor savings and a typical Kanban project reduces inventory by 50% or more. Paul has been vital to our lean journey and operational success and we look forward to working with him again and again". Todd Kaull, Vice President of Operations, Alliance Laundry Systems
"I had the pleasure of working alongside Paul in a large printing operation, working to take out costs while increasing efficiency and reducing waste in a very complex workflow. The tools he brought to our project reduced our turn times by as much as 30% and cut our rework and labor costs by a similar margin. The project was so successful that elements of it were implemented at numerous other facilities around the world. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Paul's services to anyone." Corey Christiansen, President, McKay Printing Company
“Paul has led many successful projects for me, at Latrobe Steel and at Berg Pipe. He has a pragmatic and effective approach that produces great results even where previous efforts have failed. I would strongly recommend Paul Boots and Praesto Lean Solutions for anyone who is serious about improving their manufacturing operations.” Hans Sack, President, Latrobe Steel Company; President, Berg Steel Pipe Corporation
"The production efficiencies were immediately evident. We are anticipating productivity improvement and inventory savings on an annualized basis approaching $1M. This represents an approximate 20% improvement in labor productivity and approximately 35% reduction in average inventory on hand. Paul was great to work with and he immediately gained the respect of the workers whose jobs were being significantly altered". Rich Tarpley, Executive Vice President, Consumer Products Incorporated
"I still can't believe how complex we thought it was and how simple you made it", Vice President of Operations, Steel Manufacturer
"As a result of your time and talent, we have been able to sort, stock and restock donations much more efficiently, meaning that more students are going home with the clothing that helps them feel comfortable, confident and prepared to thrive", Katie Jones Jadwin, Executive Director, Clothes to Kids of Denver
