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.
