ICR Started with a Book...
We had taken all the classes in Lean, Six-Sigma, Value-Engineering.
We had been to China 25X helping companies setup factories to lower labor cost,
but we had never seen a single tool which enabled 10-25% improvement in
all 5 categories of Cost-of-Goods-Sold (COGS).
That's why we wrote the Book Integrated Cost Reduction ...
and that's why we started ICR in 2005.

The Integrated Cost Reduction book was published in 2005... since then, the ICR Toolbox has been applied on over 500 products around the world.
The ICR Process has enabled COGS reductions of 10-25% in various industries: from Aerospace & Defense to Semi / Semi Capital Equip. to Biopharm to White Goods (appliances) to Oil & Gas refineries to Hospital Construction to the US Govt.

Only the ICR Process combines the "best-of-the-best" Cost Reduction tools into one integrated ICR Toolbox.
