Beyond Traditional Consulting

Are you looking for real, rapid improvements in your mining operation's productivity and profitability? While traditional consulting often involves lengthy analyses, broad interventions, and hefty fixed fees regardless of outcome, Stratflow offers a distinct, proven alternative designed for impact.

Here's how Stratflow delivers where traditional approaches often fall short:

Focused Methodology vs. Broad Strokes

• Stratflow: We utilize a specialized Theory of Constraints (TOC) methodology, refined over 20 years specifically for mining. Our "keyhole surgery" approach targets the critical bottlenecks hindering your entire system's performance.

• Traditional Consulting: Often deploys large teams for broad, department-by-department reviews. This can lead to optimizing silos in isolation, lengthy disruptions, and recommendations that may not address the true systemic constraint limiting overall output.

​

System-Wide Gains vs. Isolated Fixes

• Stratflow: We analyze your entire mine as an interconnected system. Our goal is to unlock bottom-line value rapidly by addressing the root causes of workflow friction, often found between departments.

• Traditional Consulting: May focus on improving individual departmental KPIs or implementing generic "best practices" without guaranteeing they translate into overall throughput improvement or resolving the core system constraints.

​

Rapid Results vs. Lengthy Engagements

• Stratflow: Our targeted approach is designed for speed, delivering significant bottom-line results within weeks. We focus on leveraging your existing assets, often achieving major gains without requiring large capital expenditure. (Latest client example: 33% production increase in one month, no CapEx).

• Traditional Consulting: Engagements can often stretch over months, involving extensive diagnostic phases before recommendations are even made, delaying tangible improvements and value realization.

​

Shared Risk vs. Fixed Fees

• Stratflow: We are confident in our ability to deliver. That's why we put a substantial portion of our fees at risk, aligning our success directly with your achieved results. If we don't deliver the agreed-upon improvements, our fees are impacted.

• Traditional Consulting: Typically operates on time-and-materials or fixed-fee structures based on consultant effort, meaning you pay the full cost regardless of whether the promised performance uplift materializes.

​

Tangible Outcomes vs. Recommendations

• Stratflow: We focus on delivering tangible outcomes: radically improved productivity, easier KPI attainment, enhanced safety through smoother operations, better cross-departmental coordination, and freeing up management time.

• Traditional Consulting: Often culminates in comprehensive reports and recommendations, leaving the burden (and risk) of successful implementation and achieving the projected benefits primarily on your team.

​

Stop paying for effort, start investing in results. Stratflow offers a focused, rapid, and commercially aligned partnership to unlock the true potential of your mining operation, moving beyond the limitations of traditional consulting.
