The 12-Tools Methodology and the concept of a “concentric management systems” was created by our Founder James R Thompson in 2003. After decades of working internationally as a higher education Professor, certification body auditor, certification course developer, and business management system implementer, we have harnessed this knowledge and packaged it for you. At the core of our services and digital products is the idea that compliance and business optimization can be achieved through “having a common center” (the definition of the word concentric).   By creating simple tools such as standard procedures, checklists, visual models and communication habits, organizations have a better chance of fulfilling their strategic objectives. Benchmarks and best practices, fine-tuned from working with some of the world’s most demanding organizations, is at the core of what makes our approach special. Teaching process owners how to master the processes they manage is what separates us from other providers. Simple. Compliant. Collaborative. Configurable. Aligned with strategy. Understanding the WHY. One system. Concentric.
