What do you want, low cost, low risk, high performance?

Risk Cost Performance

Risk Cost Performance

What do you want: low cost, low risk, or high performance?
Pick just one, and you’ll be disappointed.

  • Chasing low cost? You’ll cut overtime, training, contractors, consulting… and end up with lower quality, longer lead times, and higher risks. Machines sit idle, production is delayed, deliveries get missed.

  • Obsessed with low risk? Performance drops. You’ll stick to safe, standard engineering, avoid innovation, and watch costs creep back up.

  • Focused only on performance? Risks and costs skyrocket.

When markets tighten, most companies slash costs because savings hit the bottom line fast. But they ignore the hidden price—production losses, stressed people, and mounting risks.

The trick isn’t choosing one. It’s balancing all three.

  • Two out of three? You’ll get mediocrity.

  • All three in balance? You get optimized spending, lowest cost per unit, smart engineering, and proactive maintenance that prevents downtime.

Do the basics well, and balance is possible.
