Robert B. Vollum, 2007

Today, his energy is devoted to convincing managers NOT to do things as he had done and to teaching them how truly to make a difference. The "tried and true" traditional methods can't hack it in today's fast paced, cut-throat competitive, world-wide marketplace. Companies must be able to turn on a dime with performance that was almost incomprehensible less than ten years ago.

R.B. Vollum & Associates is in its third decade of helping companies adopt the Synchronous Flow Management - Theory Of Constraints process of Ongoing Improvement. The principles of constraints management are so powerful that even this far into the game, managers are rarely prepared for the degree of improvement possible or the speed with which it can happen.

We take great pride in the extraordinary success of our clients.
