Lean Management Track Record
At Solar Turbines, as an

grow the business from $50 to $500 million while turning losses into profits
in the first year of a four-year period. Business systems upgrades and
effective implementations were the key to profitable growth.
In Spain, at Pagaso, a Spanish truck
company, his parts distribution team was instrumental in turning a
huge annual loss
into an annual profit - achieving the three-year turnaround objective. Bill
designed, developed, implemented and achieved effective lean management
techniques based on
kaizen and just-in-time logistic methodologies.
When Eaton Leonard Technology
faced bankruptcy, they turned to Bill Gaw. Bill and his operation teams helped achieve
profitability in the first year of reorganization. Continuous improvement and
motivational performance management provided the driving force for a timely, profitable turnaround.
Palomar Systems wanted greater
profit margins and increased sales. Within only four years, Bill’s teams
increased
product profit margin from 32% to 55% while growing the company from $17
to a whopping $250 million. This was a classic example of the benefits
gained through implementation of lean management principles and techniques,
the balanced scorecards and
team dynamics.
