Rolls-Royce
Rolls-Royce manages a global business in highly competitive markets, providing power
systems for land, sea and air. In the latest phase of its distinguished history
it has become the technical leader and a pre-eminent supplier in the world’s civil
aero-engine markets.
In addition, it is a major supplier of aero-defence equipment and support in Europe,
North America and internationally, with increasing sales of derivative technologies
to the
marine propulsion and energy sectors. The company employs more than 40,000 people
in forty-eight countries. We are proud to have been working with senior managers
throughout the business for almost ten years.
Sustaining and improving performance in rapidly-changing markets demands rigorous
attention to detail, a willingness to innovate, and the ability to provide excellent
products
at competitive prices. An organisation with such large operational units has to
give the
closest attention to lean, world-class processes and precise managerial controls.
Accordingly, we have helped managers:
- to measure and improve the cost-effective utilisation of resources, particularly
manpower
- to review and change organisational structures to release commercial and engineering
design potential
- to establish controls on cost and performance through internal transfer pricing.
Our work throughout Rolls-Royce’s various operating divisions has involved colleagues
with skills in operational analysis, distribution, finance, marketing, human resources
and
information technology.
