Doing Business With IPM

New clients quickly find that working with IPM is an easy, helpful and solutions-oriented process. Although we work with clients throughout the world, IPM remains a privately-held business based in Houston and Dallas, and that shows in our hands-on approach to learning and addressing your unique challenges – with you staying involved as much as you want along the way.

Our high levels of service and attention to detail begins long before you even become a client of the firm. Prospective clients receive:

• A complimentary analysis of their current asset or inventory management system and overall process flow. This allows us to pinpoint inefficiencies that we feel can be improved upon. Our policy is that the best solutions start by asking the right questions and then listening attentively.

• A full business presentation detailing our recommendations and the expected return on investment (ROI) for the project.

• In some cases, a complimentary on-site assessment and facility audit. This would be offered prior to the company contracting the firm, and allows us to better hone our analysis, recommendations and cost proposal.

• A non-disclosure agreement whenever necessary

By the time you agree to become a client of IPM, you will clearly understand the core problem, the solution, the estimated time to complete, and the projected ROI once our work is completed.
