Success seems to be connected with action. Successful people and successful companies keep moving. Our company moved to new offices last week. Moving can be tiring, time consuming and troubling. But through it all we learned some valuable lessons. I believe those lessons can be applied in any organization needing to improve cost and profitability.

“One cannot manage change. One can only be ahead of it.” This quote from Peter Drucker’s book, “Management Challenges for the 21st Century”, is a call to action. For the staff of ICMS, change took form in a move to new offices. For your organization, change may take a different form. You may need to change overhead costs, improve a process or analyze customer profitability. To address those types of needs, Drucker encourages organizations to change from traditional costing to Activity Based Cost Management. He says, “Using activity based costing can substantially lower costs – in some instances by a full third.” Are you ready to move and improve? If so, give us a call. While we have a new street address, we have the same old e-mail address of tompryor@icms.net.
