PLATINN'S NEW FUND RAISING SERVICEServices › Organization

Organization

This service helps with the optimization and evolution of the organization. It relies on a methodology that facilitates alignment between organization and strategy, including:

  • A holistic approach that takes into account “Technology, Organization and People” (TOP);
  • A multitude of participatory tools that facilitate building and developing the organization and its resources with the persons involved;
  • A system of measurement to identify gaps and to define quantitative objectives for improvement projects;
  • A team of accredited coaches.

The benefits of this service, in a general way, correspond to the various problems associated with a firm’s transitional periods of growth and maturity; or, to problems related to a specific entity, department or product, for example.

The results of an intervention, in mobilizing the capacities and skills of collaborators involved in the planning, are directly visible in the processes, the resources, and, finally, in the goods and services generated.

Some examples of the objectives of an intervention:

  • Bringing the organization and its resources in line with its strategy;
  • Increasing productivity;
  • Improving performance;
  • Controlling production cycles and processes;
  • Optimization of costs and operations, preserving or (re)creating a profit margin.

The benefits associated with a capacity to respond rapidly can make the difference when imagining, building and integrating a constructive change, leading to a real optimization of the organization.

Art-Tisons is sharpening the stone and controlling the fire

Art-Tisons SA is not afraid of the fire nor of the crisis. The company is focusing on its tradition in cutting out the stone and producing fireplace stoves. A summary of its history and its future vision, strong as a block of stone.

By Anne-France Borgeaud Pierazzi

Plus de 20 ans d’existence
En 1987, ils étaient deux: Maurice Gouzy et Jacques Rossier. Le duo créa Art-Tisons SA, réunissant l’art de tailler la pierre et leur passion pour les cheminées de salon. Parce que la taille de pierre se veut un art et tout ce qui brûle dans l’âtre est appelé «tisons».

Flexibilité et confort du Twist T4-4x4
Fondée initialement à Lausanne en 1969, la société est devenue fabricante de fauteuils roulants en 1994. Elle compte maintenant une trentaine de collaborateurs répartis entre Lausanne, Genève et Uetendorf (Thun), le site de production. Elle vient de sortir sa 3ème génération de fauteuils motorisés, dont le prototype 4x4 a été présenté à Düsseldorf en octobre 2010. Cette nouvelle gamme, issue de l’expérience accumulée, réunit toutes les qualités des précédentes tout en augmentant l’autonomie de la personne handicapée lors du franchissement d’obstacles. Flexibilité, liberté et discrétion: telles pourraient être quelques-unes des valeurs du nouveau modèle Twist T4-4x4.

ELFIX Production SA : A watchband clasp made in French-speaking Switzerland

At its inception in 1999, Elfix Production SA of La Chaux-de-Fonds operated as a subcontractor for brand-name watchmakers, manufacturing watchbands. Within a few years, the company expanded more and more in its field and now employs thirty people.

By Céline Aubert

Gilles Garino, fondateur d’Elfix, se souvient: «J’ai créé ma propre entreprise de fournitures horlogères en 1999. Professionnellement, j’avais atteint mes limites dans le groupe où je travaillais comme technicien et j’ai donc décidé de me lancer et de créer une entité indépendante. Grâce au savoir-faire technique acquis dans mes expériences précédentes et à ma connaissance du marché, j’ai vite enregistré des commandes car je savais où aller trouver des clients.

Histoire d'un succès : Saint-Gobain Isover - de l'innovation même dans sa grille salariale

Leader dans les produits isolants en laine de verre de haute qualité, l’entreprise a désiré mettre à jour sa méthode d’évaluation. Une volonté qui vise à pérenniser le système dans un logiciel SAP fiable.

Par Anne-France Borgeaud Pierazzi

Durabilité et performance
Composée à plus de 85% de verre recyclé, la laine de verre produite à Lucens (VD) répond aux nouvelles exigences écologiques de l’industrie de la construction. L’évolution technologique des liants, composés de matières premières renouvelables, et un désir de maintenir des processus de production optimaux s’inscrivent dans les priorités d’Isover. Bien qu’affiliée au groupe Saint-Gobain – le leader mondial de l’habitat présent dans 64 pays avec 190’000 salariés –, Isover garde son autonomie. Elle bénéficie d’une grande visibilité dans la région, grâce à sa force d’innovation et son histoire. Elle s’apprête d’ailleurs à passer le cap des 75 ans l’année prochaine avec un événement «Porte ouverte» prévu le 22 septembre 2012. «L’occasion de démontrer que la société s’est durablement développée», souligne Richard Krebs, CEO.

Ventura Mecanics, le sens inné de la continuité

L'entreprise familiale de Chambrelien donne une seconde vie aux machines à cames en les mettant à niveau, voire en les améliorant avec une plus-value technologique innovante.

Par Anne-France Borgeaud Pierazzi

Prolonger la vie de machines complexes
Perpétuant la vision de leur père, les frères Fabio et Luca Ventura ont donné un élan supplémentaire à la notoriété de l’entreprise en misant sur le rétrofit ou la mise à niveau d’unités de décolletage de type Escomatic®. «A l’heure où les entreprises cherchent à contrôler les coûts, la révision et l’augmentation des performances d’une machine sont une option idéale», raconte le tandem à la direction de la PME. L’innovation réside alors dans l’ajout d’un servomoteur ou d’un écran tactile tout en augmentant les gains de productivité (voir aussi focus 7 et 18). Mais Ventura Mecanics SA a su poursuivre son essor grâce aussi à d’autres activités que sont la révision standard des mandrins, la vente d’outillage de rechange ou encore la fabrication de pièces spécifiques.
