ΣG™ / Operational Friction Pilot

Where turnover, rework, and service breakdowns are costing you money.

We run a controlled 60-day pilot to measure operational friction and test whether it can be reduced.

The Problem

Operational Friction Is Expensive — and Often Invisible

01

Turnover that feels normal — but compounds quietly

Replacement costs, onboarding drag, and lost institutional knowledge accumulate below the threshold of executive visibility.

02

Rework that repeats without resolution

Process errors that recur signal systemic friction. Each cycle consumes labor, margin, and operational capacity.

03

Escalations that signal breakdowns upstream

Service recovery is a lagging indicator. By the time escalations are visible, cost has already been incurred.

What We Do

Measurement before intervention.

We measure where operational friction is costing you money and test whether that cost can be reduced. The pilot is finite, controlled, and contained within one department or unit.

  • 60-day duration
  • One operational unit
  • No individual performance tracking
  • Aggregate system-level reporting
  • Executive summary + cost model
Process

How the Pilot Works

01

Baseline

Map exposure across turnover, rework, and escalation categories to establish financial reference points.

02

Signal Capture

Collect short, structured friction inputs tied to real operational events. No surveys. No new meetings.

03

Pattern Aggregation

Aggregate signals at the system level to identify recurring cost drivers across the unit.

04

Executive Output

Deliver a clear recovery estimate, pilot findings summary, and decision recommendation.

Next Step

Determine whether operational friction is financially meaningful.

No ongoing commitment required. Finite. Controlled. Executive-ready.
