EMS Consulting Group Inc.

Lean Consulting, Lean Coaching & Lean Six Sigma Training

Improve execution reliability, productivity, quality, and profitability — and build internal capability that sustains results.

For leaders who want predictable execution, clearer priorities, and less firefighting.

Organizations rarely struggle because of a lack of effort or talent. They struggle because execution becomes fragmented as complexity grows: missed commitments, expediting, firefighting, quality issues, and margin erosion. EMS Consulting Group helps leaders create predictable performance by improving flow, leadership routines, and internal capability—using Lean and Six Sigma methods where they fit. Delivered on-site or virtually.

Trusted by leadership teams for over 20 years across healthcare, life sciences, manufacturing, and complex service organizations — including Fortune 500 enterprises and high-growth mid-sized firms.

A short message from our founder

Most organizations don’t struggle because people aren’t working hard. They struggle because decisions don’t always stick, priorities drift, and execution becomes reactive.




How we work

We help leaders improve performance by aligning operational flow, leadership routines, and problem-solving capability. Our work is practical, tailored, and designed to leave your organization stronger—not dependent.

1) Align on outcomes and success criteria

We clarify what must change (execution reliability, lead time, quality, margin, capacity, delivery performance) and define how success will be measured—so the work stays decision-focused and relevant to leadership.

2) Diagnose the system, not just symptoms

We identify constraints and root causes across processes, management routines, and data/metrics—then prioritize the few actions that create meaningful improvement (often through Kaizen events, value stream mapping, and targeted Lean coaching).

3) Execute improvements and build internal capability

We enable leaders and teams to sustain results through coaching, facilitation, and Lean Six Sigma training and certification— so improvements endure long after our engagement ends.
