Oiva Consulting is a small boutique consulting firm that helps our
customers to stay competitive in a changing world. Our services
start from efficiency consulting and data analysis to strategic
situation reviews and recommendations.
Marko Halonen is the main
consultant in the company and specific expertise is brought into
projects as needed from his extensive network.
We often work as outsourced project managers for our end customers or for other consultancy firms. In those positions we bring in our expertise from various industries and dozens of very challenging projects to create focus and results.
The goals for these projects vary a lot. They can be anything from making sure mergers generate benefits to redesigning and implementing new production processes. On strategy level we very often work on making sure that already decided strategies are actually implemented in operations. Very often strategy execution fails because the required footwork is simply not done.
Streamlining processes is often the simplest route to improvements in the whole business. We are dogma-free and take good practices from Lean, 6σ, Agile etc. exactly as suits each particular client.
When anyone comes to work in the morning they should have a view where they can see what has happened yesterday, what is happening now and what should be done. KPIs and dashboards are always developed with people to answer their real needs.
Past data can only take you so far. We develop predictive models to forecast what will probably happen. Methods used range from simple trend lines to machine learning models and their deployment.
Very often companies have huge mountains of data that they do not have the time or capacity to utilize properly. Analysis of this under-utilized data can point to simple and fast business improvements.
