A Breakthrough Approach to Operations:

Often lost in today's discussions about business technologies and digital commerce is the physical element of doing business. CCG believes strongly that to succeed in the future a company must be as effective in the physical world as it is in the information world. In the prevailing business environment, therefore, physical operations (e.g., procurement, manufacturing and distribution) are critical variables, requiring successful organizations to focus on process measurements and technology that support and control core operations, as well as the information-gathering process itself.

Six Sigma is a highly disciplined, customer-focused, statistically driven analytical process aimed at detecting, isolating and removing many of the traditional barriers to growth and enhanced profitability. Six Sigma offers a universal and highly scalable methodology that can equip companies, large and small, with the strategy, tactics and tools to dramatically improve profitability by providing the managers of businesses with a more profound understanding and better control of their processes. While other quality control programs have focused on detecting and correcting production errors and design defects, Six Sigma aims at a more fundamental and powerful goal: it provides specific methods to re-create a particular process so that defects and errors never arise in the first place.

Through the use of Six Sigma and lean manufacturing principles, CCG will assist in positioning its portfolio companies to exploit the new array of growth opportunities made possible by collaborative e-commerce and the emerging dynamics of today's marketplace.
