Consulting Services
Poris and Associates offers a variety of services designed to improve your bottom line.
While much of our experience has been gained in the automotive industry, our expertise and services are fully applicable in the non-automotive world. Experience has proven that other industries can benefit from the application of disciplines commonly in use in the automotive world. Since founding Poris and Associates, we have completed or are working on projects in Aerospace, Chemicals, Composites, Electronics, Forging, Plastics, Electrical Power Generation, and others.
We utilize our expertise and experience to help you improve your bottom line by improving the quality of your Engineering, Manufacturing, Program or Project Management, Administrative, and Logistics processes.
A typical project would include an initial assessment of "Current State", followed by detailed recommendations for improvement to reach the desired “Future State”. Our aim is normally to assist you in implementation of our recommendations, although occasionally, we do simply provide a "Fresh Eyes" review and our recommendations, leaving you to decide which recommendations to implement, and how to implement them.
Please note that we provide a variety of services in many industries. Not all are represented on our website. If you need a service not shown here, please don't hesitate to ask about it! If, after working with you to assess your needs, we are unable to provide the services needed, we will be happy to refer you to one of the many firms with which we frequently do business.
Poris and Associates also offers Automobile Ownership Data (mailing lists). Please visit PORISDATA.COM for more information.
We are experts in Quality, Quality Operating/Management (QOS/QMS) Systems and Problem Solving, and can help you and your suppliers reach new levels of quality, including certifications such as ISO-9001 and ISO/TS16949.
Process Improvement is a core competency of our consulting services. It is part of every project we do, whether it is the primary focus or a "by-product" of the project. We ALWAYS are looking at your processes as we evaluate and assess your operations.
Poris and Associates will work with you to assess current efficiency levels, map out opportunities for major improvement, and help you eliminate waste in your operations and those of your suppliers.
We offer a wide variety of Quality, Reliability, and Engineering courses, including many disciplines required by most automotive OEM’s. Call us today to talk about your training needs!
We can help you assess operational strengths and weaknesses of potential merger, acquisition, or JV partners, as well as work with you after closing to improve the value of your new entity.
We are your Technical, Quality, and Sales reps, supporting you at your customer locations as needed. In the event of quality “spills” or product launches, we will be on-site, working to prevent and resolve issues quickly.
