Challenge - Generating Positive Cash Flow

In a global commodity industry it is not possible to influence the revenue side, so the key to generating positive cash flow, at the mill level, is controlling costs.

What We Think

“The cash flow of individual companies depends on production efficiency more than any other factor. Bringing to bear the right tools and techniques to involve and empower the workforce can lead to significant and continuous improvements in production efficiency.”

– Dean Carrier, Pulp and Paper Practice Leader
