Real sustainable change can be achieved only when the public sector drives its own savings and improvements. We are a new type of consultancy dedicated to building capacity – working together to give you the ability to transform. We are improvement experts, from whole organisational transformation through to specific process cost reduction and quality improvement, with an emphasis on skills transfer.

We offer proven, experienced consultants for substantially less cost than the big, traditional consultancies. How can we do this? We practice what we preach. We run a lean organisation – just what we help our clients to achieve. Unlike traditional consultancies that have a large, permanent consulting staff to pay, we are a team of independent consultants working as a single firm with clear quality assurance and expert project management. As a result, you get big consultancy returns, without the hassle and at a lower price tag.

RedQuadrant events

We've got lots of exciting events happening over the next few months, including the innovative and brand new Library Safari offering, as well our redeveloped Service Transformation Programme and the Power+Systems Organisation Workshop in Paris!

We've also held a successful masterclass on revenues and benefits, which gave rise to some interesting discussions and ideas.

Keeping your reputation while making cuts

Councils are facing significant budget cuts – but how can you meet your savings targets without a negative impact on your reputation?

RedQuadrant and The Research Unit are now able to offer detailed analyses based on your own annual resident survey responses and financial data over the past three years.

Lean and systems thinking rapid improvement events

We find that there is nothing so impactful, (more powerful than training, presentations and discussions), as actually delivering lean initiatives. To a large extent, the majority of the learning and understanding comes from practically ‘doing it’.

Through a series of workshops, we take a cross-functional team through an accelerated version of the service review, analysing demand, need, process and change opportunities and delivering intensive lean/systems thinking training in two days to 16 staff members, then prototyping change with an intensive two-week activity.
