Why We Keep, What We Promise.
From insight and inspiration to implementation and always in your best interests – holistic, shirt-sleeved, on-target. You might think this is only natural but in actual practice it tends to be the exception rather than the rule. An approach at U² that embraces project overviews, specific detailed solutions, interdisciplinary project work, improved interfaces and – last but not least – the avoidance of multiple analyses.
We apply our know-how and get involved hands-on in helping to improve work cycles, processes, practices and procedures. We value your participation and we prize robust solutions. Since, in the long term, only such solutions are sustainable.
Two sides of a coin: Theory and Practice
1997 U² was founded. The reason: The company founders had the ambition not only to offer theoretical consulting services. It was important to them from the beginning, to be judged by the implementation success. U² follows the so-called “lean” approach until today. This represents a lean production, in which all types of waste is avoided. Together with our customers we are on the way to a consequently lean company.
