“Who has the next step?”
Work stalls between people, and someone has to keep asking for updates.

Let’s make the work
easier to run.
Clearer processes. Useful information. Tools your team can actually use.
SixPoint helps small and midsize businesses organize how work gets done, make better use of their data, and turn improvements into everyday habits.
Start with one task, process or project that needs attention.
Does this sound familiar?
The work gets done.
But it takes too much chasing.
“Which numbers are right?”
Reports take time to assemble and still leave important questions unanswered.
See an example“Why is this still unfinished?”
Good ideas compete with daily work, and projects struggle to reach the finish line.

Six ways to make work easier.
We build workflows, dashboards, automation, step-by-step instructions and project-management tools around the way your business works.
A useful place to start
Build on the tools
you already have.
Start with your spreadsheets, business software and shared resources. We look at what is working, what is missing and where a small change could help.
You do not need to know which tool or service to ask for. Bring the problem.
Organize the work first.
Then build on it.
An inventory list can become a forecasting tool. An onboarding checklist can grow into automatic reminders and clear next steps.

What would you like to make easier?
Bring one task, process or project. We’ll explore a useful first step.
Start a conversationExamples of how we could help
Which situation
sounds familiar?
Explore a problem, a useful first solution and what it could become.
These are fictional examples to explain possible approaches, not past client results.
Working together
A useful first solution.
A clear way forward.
We start with what is getting in the way today, then decide how much help makes sense.
Before the work starts
A discovery conversation
We talk about one challenge, who it affects and what you would like to improve. You can bring an example, but you do not need a polished brief.
A complimentary 30-minute conversation. No commitment to a project.
A closer look, if needed
If the work needs more investigation, we outline a separate assessment with a clear price and outputs. That may include reviewing records or watching how a task happens.
A clear proposal
You receive a summary of the problem, the recommended work, deliverables, timing and fee. We confirm responsibilities and approval before the work begins.
The delivery process
Understand. Design. Build. Implement. Support.
Understand
Find out where the work gets stuck and what a better result would look like.
Design
Choose the steps, tools and responsibilities for the first solution.
Build
Create and test the process, tracker, report or automation.
Implement
Try it with real work and help the team use it confidently.
Support
Resolve problems, keep it useful and identify worthwhile improvements.
Complete the project or keep improving.
A defined project
A focused piece of work with a clear finish. We review the result, provide the handoff and confirm who maintains it.
Ongoing support
A recurring arrangement for a defined amount of support or improvement work. We set the priorities, availability and fee before it starts.
New features or work outside the original plan receive a separate scope and price. A retainer is optional and does not mean unlimited work.
A few common questions
Do we need Microsoft products?
No. We start with the tools you use and look at what the work needs. The right approach depends on access, compatibility and the problem.
Do we have to commit to a large project?
No. A useful first engagement might be one process, one report or a small trial. It should help on its own.
How will we know it helped?
We look at the starting situation and choose a useful measure, such as time spent chasing records, missed steps or delays. Then we check what changes after the team uses the solution.
How is the price set?
The fee depends on the work, the information available and the support needed. You review the scope and price before paid work begins.
Can we meet remotely?
Remote collaboration can work well for many tasks. If observing the work in person would help, we can discuss that as part of the scope.
Start with the problem in front of you.

A practical approach
to making work better.
I like helping people turn “there has to be a better way” into something they can use.
Why I started SixPoint
My background spans military leadership, project management and hands-on process improvement. Across those settings, I have seen how much work depends on clear responsibilities, useful information and consistent follow-through.
I started SixPoint Operational Solutions to bring that approach to small and midsize businesses. I help make the work easier to manage, whether that means clarifying a process, building a report or coordinating an improvement from idea to everyday use.
What I bring to the work
Experience organizing teams and projects, building operational tools, and translating detailed information into clear next actions.
How I work with people
I listen to the people doing the task, start with the problem and keep the first solution practical. The goal is something your team understands and can maintain.
A little beyond work
I’m based in Stevens Point, Wisconsin, and enjoy traveling with my wife.
Start a conversation
What would you like
to make easier?
Tell me a little about the situation. We’ll decide whether a discovery conversation would be useful.
Bring one challenge.
You do not need a solution in mind. A task that takes too long, a report you do not trust or a project that keeps stalling is enough to start.
What happens next?
- I review your note.
- I contact you to arrange a conversation.
- We discuss a useful next step, if there is a fit.
A complimentary 30-minute discovery conversation. No commitment to a project.
