Chapters

My name is Gary McMahon, I'm the director of Ecosystem Solutions. We're a company in Dunsborough in the south west of Western Australia. We are bushfire consultants and ecology consultants and we primarily work with developers and landowners to develop their properties and keep them safe from bushfire risk as well as protect the environment with respect to flora and fauna. Before using System Hub we were very busy. I was a one man band with a part time employee. Our demand for both bushfire and ecology services in southwest of WA is extremely high with a phenomenal amount of work available. So our biggest problem was dealing with that demand and it was just so hard to keep tabs on everything. The System Hub approach has just helped us to clarify exactly what it is we do and how we fit that in. So we actually have a bit of sanity in our world. The results have been phenomenal in two aspects. First, I'm no longer working 100 hour work weeks to try and keep everyone happy. I've increased my staff and they're probably some of the most experienced staff now in this field are able to follow our approach. We're doing things consistently. Our product, at the end, our reports look the same regardless of which one of my staff members is doing it. From a business point of view, Turnover's increased by 200% since we started the System Hub approach. Our net profit's gone from say 8% of turnover to up close to 30%. And that's just because we're being more efficient with the process. Sat.
