Scandinavian origin – global presence

Focused on client benefit

The Mantec way

What we achieve

Mantec is a consultancy company that improves efficiency, lowers operating costs, increases productivity, shortens lead times and throughput times, reduces unnecessary inventory and enhances delivery reliability.

We are experts in organisational restructuring, skills development, footprint analysis and boosting and structuring sales organisations. In short, we manage change processes.

Between 80% and 90% of all costs goes through the hands of first line management. A Mantec programme focuses on control at the point of execution.

How we achieve it

On average, Mantec projects yield more than 300% return on the original investment. Mantec has a very high level of customer satisfaction. How do we achieve this?

We establish a solid foundation for a successful project through in-depth and open discussions with new clients. New relationships begin with a thorough analysis of the client’s business.

The analysis takes 3 to 4 calendar weeks and we invest between 6 and 15 man-weeks. The objective of the analysis is to ascertain the improvement potential, where it can be found and the monetary value of this improvement potential.

We maintain an open dialogue with the client throughout the analysis to ensure that we share an understanding of how an implementation project is executed.

Scandinavian origin – global presence

Mantec initially served the domestic markets in Scandinavia (Sweden, Denmark and Norway). Before long, we expanded to Finland. As our business grew, we followed our customers out of the Nordics into Germany, the UK, Poland, Benelux, Russia, Ireland and several other European countries. We have also completed a number of projects in the US and Asia with excellent results.

We have the competence and experience to serve all the markets in which our customers operate. Although our values and ways of operating are essentially Scandinavian, we are aware that many problems embedded in local culture often need local solutions. On the other hand, there are also many issues where good management does not depend on the local culture. Our success lies in our ability to combine our Scandinavian brand of sound and successful management techniques with our understanding of local languages, cultures and ways of thinking.

Consultants

Skilled professionals – yet ordinary people

Mantec has over 100 consultants with an average experience in change management of more than 14 years. Most of our employees have a technical and/or business degree in combination with extensive experience of line management.

The consulting experience of our consultants, on average, is between 10 and 25 years. We assemble our project teams according to experience, knowledge, academic background and their proven ability to achieve and implement results.

A Mantec project often results in significant changes to our client’s organisation and ways of working. The consultant’s background and extensive experience from both similar and different businesses and organisations add a new dimension to the project.

We also place considerable emphasis on the way that our consultants work in teams, both internally as consultant teams and externally with our clients’ people.

History

Founded in 1996, Mantec initially served the domestic markets in Scandinavia (Sweden, Denmark and Norway). Before long, we expanded to Finland. The three founders of the company had extensive experience of helping clients achieve operational excellence and they wanted to merge “the Scandinavian way” with a no-nonsense roll-up-your-sleeves approach. We always take a customised approach and are committed to working with our clients to provide them with bespoke solutions that address their specific needs..

From day one, we focused on bringing benefits to the client, which we also call measurable results. For us, the job is not done until we have implemented the change to the client’s organisation that delivers the projected measurable results.

As Mantec grew, we followed our customers from the Nordic countries to the UK, Germany, Poland, Russia, Central Europe, Asia, and North America.

Since 1996, our turnover has increased to more than 15 million Euro in 2019, and the number of people serving clients has risen from the original three founders to today’s network of over 100 consultants. We pride ourselves on the fact that all of our consultants are experienced and possess excellent implementation skills which are supported by the application of well-proven methodologies.

Achieving measurable and sustainable outcomes might sound easy, but is no such thing. It demands the right mix of skills and, just as important, the right experience. Mantec has experience of successfully implementing more than 500 projects, each of which has delivered measurable benefits to our clients.
