Consulting FAQ
Do I have to be a customer to use consulting services?
No, our consulting services are available to any business. We provide objective, unbiased recommendations regardless of whether you purchase pallets from us.
What information do you need from us?
Typically, we need pallet purchase history, usage data, current processes, and access to key stakeholders. We'll provide a detailed checklist during kickoff.
Will you implement the recommendations?
We can support implementation, or we provide detailed guidance for your team to execute. Many clients choose a hybrid approach.
How quickly can we see results?
Quick wins are often identified in the first assessment. Major savings typically materialize within 3-6 months of implementation.
Is there a guarantee on savings?
We're confident in our ability to find savings. If a Comprehensive Audit doesn't identify at least 2x the consulting fee in savings opportunities, we'll refund the difference.
