If your operation feels busy but profits aren’t showing it, you’re not alone. Rising labor costs, missed production targets, underperforming automation, and unclear priorities quietly drain profitability every day.

Todd Drummond Consulting (TDC) exists to fix that — quickly, clearly, and without bias.

Trusted. Proven. Results-Driven.

For more than 20 years, TDC has partnered with hundreds of component manufacturers nationwide — from existing operations to new greenfield startups — delivering practical solutions that produce measurable and lasting results.

Clients commonly achieve 3–6 point increases in net profit by addressing the real constraints inside their business — not theoretical models or vendor-driven recommendations.

Go Beyond Traditional Consulting

Many consultants focus only on the shop floor. TDC works across every aspect of your company — manufacturing, sales, design, and administration — because performance problems rarely live in just one department.

Lean principles, industrial engineering, and best practices are translated into clear, practical, easy-to-understand actions your team can execute immediately.

Beyond Vendor Recommendations

TDC does not accept equipment or automation vendor royalties — ever.

That independence allows for honest, unbiased recommendations focused solely on what delivers the best ROI for your operation — today and in the future. Automation and equipment solutions are evaluated based on proven performance, not sales incentives.

Experience That Delivers

With over 30 years in the industry and two decades as a full-time consultant, Todd Drummond brings deep, hands-on experience across leadership, operations, and business management.

His background includes executive leadership roles, a business management degree, and advanced training in Lean Manufacturing, Industrial Engineering, and Six Sigma — ensuring recommendations are grounded in reality, not theory.

Just 4 Days. Real Results.

No endless consulting engagements. No hidden fees. No prolonged disruption.

In just four focused days, TDC delivers a clear roadmap of actionable improvements — helping you reduce costs, improve productivity, and increase profitability fast.

If you want clarity, accountability, and results — not theory — let’s talk.

 

"We are thrilled to recommend Todd Drummond Consulting to any business looking to shake off stagnation and achieve new heights of success. Todd's expertise and guidance helped us think outside the box and simplify our processes, bringing clarity to our operations.

Sincerely,

Travis J. White,
