DBardo helps leaders find where their organisation loses time and money, decide what to change and prove that the change holds. We combine our own software, Incra, with independent advisory support.
Software, advisory and learningIncra shows how your processes really run, where work waits and what that waiting costs. It then helps you prove that each improvement holds.
62% of the time is waitingWorked exampleSample dataIncra checks 124 statistical methods against published reference results and shows every case in the open. Each result leads with its answer in plain words.
124 methods checkedControl chartSample dataWe work beside your leadership team to frame the problem, read the evidence and agree actions that someone owns. We agree the scope with you before any work begins.
Some leaders want a tool their teams can use. Others want an independent view of a process that matters. Most want people who can do both, and who leave the capability behind.
Our analytical workspace for operational improvement. It maps how work really flows, measures where it waits and what that costs, and checks each result with statistics.

Start learning →Whether you use Incra on your own or bring us in, the work follows the same four steps.
We start with the decision you need to make and the process behind it, and agree the scope before any work begins.
Incra reads your own records to show how the work really runs, where it waits and where it goes back.
We set out the options with their trade-offs, and every action leaves the room with one owner and a date.
We check the result with statistics after the change, so you can show the gain with figures.
Incra puts a Black Belt's toolkit and a plain-language answer side by side, so the people who run the analysis and the people who decide work from the same evidence. Your teams can use it on their own, with us, or both.
The longest wait, highlightedEach leader asks a different question of the same process. We answer each of them from one body of evidence, through Incra, our advice, or both.
We help operations leaders diagnose a process from its own records. Incra shows where work waits and goes back, and lets you test a change before anyone alters the real work.
We build the case for a change from figures your team can check. Every finding in Incra shows the numbers behind it and the method that produced them.
Incra works from exports of your existing systems and runs in the browser, so nothing is installed on the systems themselves. Each person works in a private workspace.
We work beside your improvement team as a sparring partner, and Incra gives them maps, analyses and project documents in one place, with a tollgate at the end of each phase.
They are also built into Incra, which is why the tool and the advice give the same answer.
We give every action one named owner and a date, so nothing waits for someone to pick it up.
We show the data and the method behind every finding, and we say plainly what the evidence cannot show.
Our analysis ends in a decision your team can carry out, with the trade-offs set out in full.
Short guides to the ideas behind process improvement, each with an example from work most people know. They are free to read, and the same guides sit inside Incra.
From processes and value to root cause analysis, written for people who run the work.
Every piece of work is a chain of steps that ends with someone who wanted something.
Work spends far longer sitting still than being worked on. Cutting the waits is usually the cheapest win.
Once you can see the eight kinds of waste, you will find them in offices as much as factories.
Results in time order, with limits worked out from the process, so you can tell noise from a signal.
Compare what the process actually does with what the customer needs, in one number.
A five-phase route for problems whose causes are not yet known.
Dig until the cause that keeps producing the problem is found and proved.
Green Belt and Black Belt modules sit beside the analyses they teach.
Bring us a process your organisation depends on. Incra shows where it waits and what that costs, and we help you decide what to change first.
