"After going through BPS' 12-week Lean Six Sigma Bootcamp, the cultural
shift inside Cytori has been dramatic. By embracing the tools and the
philosophy of continuous improvement taught by BPS has translated into
ongoing increases in process efficiencies and a significant cost savings in
our development and production activities. BPS was particularly adept at
helping us identify, analyze, and then improve corporate practices which are
not traditionally the focus of LSS. Their commitment to Cytori throughout
and following the Bootcamps has been outstanding.

We engaged BPS to help us jump start our Lean Six Sigma initiatives.
We went about it by sending teams to her Lean Six Sigma Workshop and
had Jane come in to lead us through her Lean Boot Camp. Our results
have been dramatic. We reduced our WIP and operating expense while
increasing throughput 10 fold and on time delivery to 100% from the lines we
implemented lean. To show our appreciation we presented BPS with a plaque at
the end of the Boot Camp that read ?In appreciation for your mentoring and
guidance to become a Lean, Mean, Data ? Driven machine.? Help
your own organization overcome its Lean initiative inertia by bringing in
BPS, we highly recommend you do.

"BPS helped our team focus on lean improvements that led to greater customer
satisfaction and reduced waste in inventory and labor. She helped us with the
tools and techniques that streamlined processes and eliminate constraints to
improve productivity in both our San Diego and Mexico facilities."

"What a wealth of information! The Lean & Six Sigma Workshop is a
"must attend" for all individual responsible for process improvement and
financial performance. The tools are easily applicable to any organization
and the classroom environment was very user-friendly."

Sharp Mission Park Medical Center
"I have had the pleasure of working with BPS International over five years now.
I first enlisted their expertise to develop and implement inventory control systems
to manage a multi-million dollar inventory of prescription drugs products.
BPS was able to initiate training and procedures which brought the inventory
and purchasing system up to management expectations within weeks.
Currently at SkinMedica, a cosmetic and prescription drug manufacturer,
BPS has developed and implemented similar inventory control systems and
is routinely called on to assist the Operations group to improve operations efficiencies."

SkinMedica, Inc.
We discovered Jane Marshall at a lean seminar at UCSD here in San Diego and our
people were very impressed with her presentation on Lean principles. From that
seminar we asked Jane to visit our furniture factory, evaluate our processes, and
make a recommendation on implementation Lean for over a 90 day period. She did
just that and we began applying the lean procedures almost immediately after two-three
weeks of classes to all our key level managers/supervisors. Besides the successful
implementation and her weekly review/progress updates, she took the time to make sure
we visited one of her more mature manufactures to insure we saw first hand a proper
implementation. Jane did a very professional job for Canyon Furniture and we recommend her highly.

"BPS has assisted us on a number of occasions. Her enthusiasm, upbeat nature, and knowledge
has not only been inspiring but also extremely beneficial. During the varied projects Jane
has assisted us in, I have enjoyed the interaction and results achieved. I congratulate Jane
for her wide and varied expertise, her quest for knowledge, and advancement in the ability
to coach and teach others"

"The best thing about the Lean Six Sigma Workshop is taking what you teach us and
analyze that against what it is I need to do at our facility to get this operation
as tight as I can. The personal observations and anecdotes from all of your travels
are great reinforcers to the lessons you present. Thanks for making this course so enjoyable! "

"Bottom Line: The Lean Six Sigma program has helped me become a much better decision maker. When you are in charge of 500 people, a warehouse complex and 45 million dollars of inventory, bad decisions have serious consequences! I find myself constantly using principles that we discussed and practiced in the LSS BB course."
