“I had the honor of working with Chuck and seeing his skill set on full display. He has something I don’t, and what many of us wish we had: a clear and effective operational mind with the ability to connect the pieces for optimal success. He’s the guy you want steering the ship. A military man, a notable author, and an extremely hard-working entrepreneur, I recommend Chuck as your go-to operations guy without question.”

This comprehensive assessment reveals where your operations are bleeding time, money, and efficiency.

    Working with Chuck for 4 years on an ERP implementation, I quickly learned that one of his secrets of success was the determination to execute quickly and decisively. No matter the request, large or small, Chuck would dig in quickly and begin to mobilize the team. His tenacity in pushing the project to the finish line was instrumental in deploying across multiple manufacturing sites and supply centers. No software is ever 100% ready. Chuck knew that and kept pushing for progress. That resulted in wildly successful implementations.

    About 13Ten Business Solutions

    We help manufacturing leaders streamline operations, empower their teams, and take back control, without adding to their workload.

    You’ll get pragmatic, boots-on-the-ground support that clears the chaos, installs systems that stick, and makes growth feel doable again.

    Manufacturing makes about one dollar in ten of the whole U.S. economy and employs about 12.7 million people today.

    If companies don’t fix daily organizational problems, even a small 3–7% drag can drain $72–$168 billion a year in lost output. That kind of drag also hurts people’s paychecks, equal to roughly $28–$66 billion a year of worker pay. *

    Let’s change that. Seamless, scalable processes aren’t just a nice-to-have; they’re how you reclaim both profit and peace of mind.

    Results Framework

    Organizations rarely fail because of a lack of effort.  They fail because one critical piece is missing.

    • Leadership + Execution without Planning leads to chaos and burnout.
    • Planning + Execution without Leadership produces mediocrity.
    • Leadership + Planning without Execution causes analysis paralysis.

    Only when Leadership, Planning, and Execution work together do you get sustainable, meaningful Results.
