“Working with Henry was an incredibly valuable experience for our tequila production team. What began as a Lean Six Sigma Green Belt training quickly evolved into a full Lean transformation initiative. With Henry’s coaching, we were able to reduce the agave cooking cycle time and streamline the entire production process, from loading to downloading the ovens. His support helped us identify opportunities to eliminate non-value-added activities, improve process consistency, and increase daily output significantly. Henry’s hands-on approach, practical tools, and deep understanding of operational challenges made a real difference. Beyond the technical results, he helped us build confidence in our team’s ability to drive continuous improvement. His guidance was instrumental in achieving a more stable, efficient, and responsive process.”

“Henry played a key role in helping us improve the efficiency of our extraction process in our tequila operations. With his guidance, we were able to significantly reduce the amount of residual sugar left in the agave fiber during milling, which led to measurable gains in tequila yield per batch. His coaching was hands-on, methodical, and tailored to our operational environment. He helped us analyze process variation, identify root causes, and implement improvements that didn’t require immediate capital investment—just better use of data and tools. Thanks to Henry’s support, we moved from project definition through implementation and control with confidence, and the results were not only recognized internally but also approved by our finance team. His approach made Lean Six Sigma practical and effective for our team on the ground.”
Teresa Flores, Liquid/Blending SuperintendentCampari Group https://www.camparigroup.com/en
"Henry’s support was key in helping us tackle a persistent quality issue in our aging and packaging process at Diageo, a global leader in premium alcoholic beverages. We were facing product rejections due to slight deviations in alcohol content. Through a structured Lean Six Sigma approach, Henry helped us map the entire process, identify sources of alcohol loss, and implement corrective actions. One of the most significant breakthroughs was automating our pumping system, which reduced manual errors and stabilized our process. His coaching was thorough, data-driven, and perfectly aligned with our operational realities. Beyond solving a technical issue, Henry fostered a proactive, analytical culture that has delivered measurable improvements across our operations. His involvement has been a major factor in our success."

“Partnering with AM Saxum was a turning point for our operations. Their Lean transformation approach helped us uncover and fix long-standing inefficiencies in our kitchen, catering, and staffing processes. Through a combination of staff training, system redesign, and practical Lean tools, we were able to eliminate manual processes, reduce labor waste, and improve communication across departments. One of the most impactful changes was the integration of visual tools and automation into our CRM system—this drastically reduced errors in the kitchen, streamlined the quoting process in catering, and brought consistency to our event staffing. The overall impact has been substantial, resulting in faster turnaround times, improved team coordination, and a more scalable, guest-focused operation. AM Saxum didn’t just deliver recommendations—they worked closely with our team to implement lasting improvements. I would highly recommend them to any service-oriented business looking to optimize their operations and enhance team performance.”
Mario Savo, General ManagerParamount Event Space https://paramount.bypeterandpauls.com/
“AM Saxum delivered a Lean transformation that went far beyond our expectations. Through a combination of Green Belt training and hands-on coaching, they helped us identify and address inefficiencies across production, roto molding, processing (recycling), shipping, and even our front-office workflows. Their team introduced powerful tools like 5S, SMED, and visual workplace systems, which immediately improved our changeover times, reduced scrap and rework, and helped streamline communication across departments. Just as importantly, their approach engaged our employees in the improvement process—giving them the skills and confidence to lead change from within. What impressed me most was the practicality of AM Saxum’s solutions. They didn’t just give us ideas—they gave us implementable systems that are already showing results. I would strongly recommend AM Saxum to any manufacturer looking to increase efficiency, reduce waste, and build a stronger, more agile organization.”
Elizabeth Cunningham, VP of OperationsRescraft Plastics Inc. https://www.rescraft.com/
“AM Saxum’s Green Belt training and project coaching made a significant impact on our operations at ADS. As part of the program, I led a project focused on reducing defects in our pipe extrusion process. With AM Saxum’s support, we applied Lean Six Sigma tools to get to the root cause—which was traced back to inadequate cooling from our chiller system. Their structured guidance throughout the root cause analysis helped us identify the issue and implement meaningful corrective actions. The result was a measurable improvement in product quality and a stronger internal capability to solve complex operational problems. I highly recommend AM Saxum to any organization seeking to drive performance improvement through practical Lean Six Sigma applications.”
Carlos Samaniego, Quality Assurance ManagerAdvance Drainage Systems Inc. https://www.adspipe.com/

What sets AM Saxum’s training apart is how accessible and actionable it is. The program doesn’t just teach concepts—it equips professionals to lead meaningful improvement projects and deliver measurable results. For any organization looking to build internal capability in process improvement, this training is a strong investment.”

FAQ

Does AM Saxum provide on-site Lean Six Sigma training and certification?

Yes — for businesses, not for individuals. We offer tailored on-site Lean Six Sigma training and certification programs exclusively for companies. Our training is designed to address real operational challenges within your organization and is delivered by experienced consultants with hands-on industry expertise. At this time, we do not offer individual or public courses for private learners.

 Any Canadian for-profit business, across all industries. Whether you’re in manufacturing, tech, healthcare, professional services, or hospitality, your business may be eligible for government grants such as SR&ED or other funding programs. Our expertise covers a wide range of industries, and we handle the full application process. While there are grants available for non-profit organizations, AM Saxum works exclusively with for-profit companies to ensure the highest return on investment and strategic impact.

The timeline can vary, but most businesses receive SR&ED refunds within 3 to 6 months of filing their claim. If your company is filing for the first time, or if the CRA requests additional documentation, processing may take slightly longer. AM Saxum streamlines this process by preparing strong, audit-ready claims that reduce the likelihood of delays.

Not at all. We work with businesses of all sizes—from small and mid-sized enterprises (SMEs) to large corporations. Whether you’re a growing business looking to scale more efficiently or a mature organization aiming to improve profitability, our Lean and funding strategies are customized to fit your size, structure, and goals.

Eligibility depends on several factors, including your business structure, the nature of your activities, and your location. If you’re conducting R&D, developing new products, or revising existing ones, or implementing new processes, you may qualify. AM Saxum offers a free initial assessment to determine your eligibility and identify the best funding options.
