Rebuilding Operational Efficiency and Financial Control in a Mid-Sized Manufacturing Company
Kadima Group stepped in as a strategic and operational partner, conducting a full operational audit, redesigning workflows, implementing KPI dashboards, renegotiating supplier contracts, rebuilding the P&L structure, and providing fractional COO leadership to restore stability and accountability. The result was a measurable increase in output, reduced scrap, stronger margins, and a leadership team aligned around a clear operational strategy.
A mid-sized manufacturer with over 150 employees faced a significant decline in operational performance after several years of rapid but unmanaged growth. Production inefficiencies had gone unaddressed, financial reporting lacked structure, and vendor pricing was inconsistent. Without a strong operational leader in place, the organization struggled with alignment, accountability, and strategic direction.
Kadima Group began with a comprehensive operational assessment, mapping each step of the machining and fabrication processes. Bottlenecks were identified, machine utilization was measured, and workflow gaps were brought to light. From this analysis came a redesigned production model that reorganized labor distribution, standardized quality checkpoints, and reduced scrap by establishing repeatable controls.
Financially, we rebuilt the internal P&L system to properly categorize cost centers, allocate overhead, and track margins with accuracy. Weekly dashboards were introduced to measure throughput, scrap, labor efficiency, and material usage—giving the leadership team the visibility they had lacked for years.
Kadima also led negotiations with key suppliers, reducing material costs by 8–12% through contract restructuring and competitive bidding. With clearer data and a reorganized cost structure, the company restored profitability and ultimately increased EBITDA within the first nine months of engagement.
To ensure long-term stability, Kadima Group stepped into a senior executive role, providing leadership oversight, weekly management meetings, KPI-driven accountability, and strategic planning. The result was a healthier, more efficient manufacturing operation built on strong processes, transparent financials, and a leadership team aligned with a renewed vision for growth.
