Case: Seattle

A big airplane company wants to contract a Dutch supplier. Parts need to be refurbished in the US, parts are being copied as a result of flight simulation outside the US and a collaboration with specialist applications. There is an incredible financial risk factor, also because documentation of all existing components are difficult to find. 
This client works only with purchase orders that cannot be circumvented. Dutch Rabobank is prepared to finance the project, but wants that OFC makes the plan structure. After empirical research in the US and in the Netherlands, the advice was to change over to small projects, with the consent of the parties involved. Rabobank appointed the OFC consultant as a temporary Program Manager and both supplier and client agreed with it.

BACK TO MAIN

Below are some business cases from daily cares. The list could be extended.

Mediation:

Mediation is another way of solving a dispute between parties. Instead of asking a judge to pass a verdict, the parties themselves look for a dispute resolution.

They are guided by a neutral coach: the mediator, who supervises the communication and the negotiation between the parties. If the mediation prevails on litigation, you, the mediator and the other party sign a written agreement with your rights and responsibilities. There are different types of contracts , however OFC uses the version used in Courts.

It is absolutely wise to see, already at an early stage, if it is advisable to engage in mediation. A conflict does not happen for no reason so, in our opinion, it should always be resolved.

When you intentionally choose that your business might need a different approach, then you have already saved both time and money. In case the parties cannot resolve the issue, which becomes clear quite quickly, then the only option is litigation. Please note: lawyers are also entrepreneurs and are preferred in procedural economy. A shortage makes prices increase.

Therefore, OFC considers mediation the solution for settling disputes and calls it dispute resolution. Having a right to something and being granted the right are two different things. Mediation was created to eliminate the points of dispute.

Administrative Organization

OFC was originally founded as a technological company with a considerable background in knowledge and experience in administrative organisation. We believe businesses can be helped by taking a human view. With expertise, being clear and a view from outside as external.

Originally OFC was founded as a technology company with a considerable background of knowledge and experience in administrative organization. We combine strategy , innovation and technology with ambition to design a feasible, adequate resolution and together we resolve obstructions. We work very pragmatic. For others, like banks, we also assess business plans on their merits , examine the best practices in an organization and whether they still meet today's minimum standards .

But we do that together with you. Our approach is quite different than when you 'ask, we run'. It is often necessary, to work just outside the scope due to the dynamics of your organization. Our unique blend of strategy, finance, technology, productivity and legal skills enables us to create a picture of reality. You can respond immediately and test solutions against feasibility. That makes it Agile.

Take as an example of justification:
Accountability means measuring results across the organization with people who are responsible for their own performance. The ability to measure performance accurately is essential for any organization if you wish to increase and to ensure optimal efficiency. A measurement system motivates employees and decision makers alike. They do no longer have to hide behind excuses, after all the facts are suddenly there. Do you recognize the phenomenon?
