management

Experience is irreplaceable when it comes to challenging management tasks.

We solve difficult management tasks in transformation situations. Whether line, program management or in board functions: we deliver results and know-how when it matters – reliable, fast and sustainable. Our experienced managers, who are precisely tailored to the respective challenges, are well-known for their highly implementation-oriented approach to realize the defined objectives.

Approach

What we do different.

Our clients value our methodological consulting approach, our ideas and strategic foresight and how well-connected we are. We are a critical friend, on par, and completely focused on our clients’ issues.
Our consulting approach is modular and based on our betterment intelligence:

Understanding

The core. And everything surrounding it.

Every company is unique. That's why it is crucial we get to know our clients’ business to its core. Besides numbers and facts soft factors, too, play a decisive role. They help us better understand a client company’s specific context and can substantially shape the implementation of appropriate measures.

Thinking

Strategic Insights: The Power of Reflective Thinking

Our management services are defined by experience and a commitment to excellence in complex scenarios. We apply reflective thinking to understand the core of each challenge, ensuring our strategies are as effective as they are insightful. Our managers are selected for their ability to not just plan, but also execute with precision. In every task, from line to board level, we focus on delivering sustainable results that matter.

Straightforward. If need be; laterally too.

The way we think affects the way we work.

The way our consultants think is straightforward, as is the way they work. We avoid buzzwords, question easy solutions and don’t shy away from a frank exchange of opinions. For we know it is not about us. It’s about our clients – and the best solution to ensure sustainable business success.

Action

Scaling peaks. Avoiding slumps.

The art of successful strategy consulting lies in striking the right balance between content and process. Without that balance, a project can easily fall into a slump after an enthusiastic start. By intensively involving key stakeholders and continuously communicating project goals and perspectives, emvis’ consultants actively work to avoid or overcome such a slump.

Enabling

Success. Today and tomorrow.

Many promising strategy projects get lost in the business of daily operations, as soon the consultants have left the building, to help clients avoid these operational pitfalls, we empower key members of our client organizations already during the project to take over responsibility before our team leaves.

Engagement

Taking things personally and all the way.

We treat our clients’ problems as if they were our own. Taking things personally means that we work with our clients as one team. It also means dedicating ourselves whole-heartedly to the task at hand and not stop until a solution is up and running.

Client story

What we’re allowed to talk about.

FLEXIBLE BICYCLE ASSEMBLY CONCEPT

The trend of reshoring bicycle and e-bike assembly to Europe is gaining momentum and has required the adoption of state-of-the-art production concepts. The customer demand has been coming along with increased product complexity and customization which led to smaller lot sizes and requests more flexibility in production. The bicycle production landscape needs facilities which are designed to handle market fluctuations with minimal additional costs, offering flexibility in layout and scalability. To meet the changed requirements, Holland Mechanics and EMVIS Experts innovated a modular design approach, which reduces space consumption, simplifies maintenance, and provides flexibility and scalability at once. The commitment of Holland Mechanics to meet industry trends, such as reshoring and using AI to optimize efficiency and quality control, helps to further extend their competitive advantage as a leading supplier in the bicycle and e-bike assembly solutions market.
