Dear Thomas,

"I’d like to thank you and your team for an excellent and very professional consulting job in Messer Cutting Systems Group.

Kainos Consulting, LLC supported us in our factories in Germany and China. In Germany we were able to increase the factory capacity and throughput substantially by reorganizing the material, workflow and introducing specific Kaizen and Kanban methodologies according to a concept developed by Kainos Consulting. In China quality and reliability of our factory has been improved significantly through Kainos’ involvement. We also got support and planning in choosing the next manufacturing technology generation for our factory in Germany.

We always got world class experts who produced sustainable results. Kainos Consulting will be our first choice for similar future projects.

Thanks again & best regards,
Peter"

"I would like to express our appreciation for the support we received from Kainos Consulting, LLC.

Otowa Electric Co, Ltd in Osaka, Japan, signed a consulting and business support agreement with Kainos in 2005.

Otowa Electric Co, Ltd, has 60-year history of manufacturing ZnO blocks for high voltage surge arrester and low voltage SPD/TVSS applications. We have been a market leader in Japan in this business.

However, we did not have experience in markets outside of Japan. In order to develop a business in the world wide market, we asked Kainos to help us. Kainos provided us with various effective advice and business supportive activities, such as helping us get UL approval, prepare product presentations, and establish relationships with prospective customers in North America and Europe. Additionally, Otowa received support from Kainos’ technical experts regarding the engineering and manufacturing of our products.

Otowa got professional service from exceptional consultants, and we are looking forward to continuing our business relationship in the future."

"We at Castolin Eutectic Ireland Limited for many years struggled to come to terms with our inventory levels, how to reduce and to focus on critical items only. Further to this, we had the added problem of having no clear forecast from our markets.

Many individuals arrived at our plant to tell us how to reduce inventory however, nobody took the time to understand our strengths and weaknesses, and then finally, you and your colleagues arrived to our plant, you gave the respect to the employees for what they could do, in operating our business as was. You spent the time to understand what we did, and more importantly, why we did it.

You gave us the tools and the understanding that even without the ideal circumstances, changes can be made that work.

Today, we have an excellent materials management system in place that delivers the group requirements, reduced inventory levels and solid customer service.

Thomas, it is thanks to you and your team for our achievement."
