Ed Booth and Associates Business Plan

Why Do What We Do?

In today’s Mining and Mineral Processing industry, corporations purchase and merge other companies into a multi-faceted corporate structure. Within this corporate structure the individual groups compete for capital. The individual groups (or individual facility) obtaining capital is becoming competitive, even amongst plants of the same organization, when capital is spent, corporate strategies are requiring better returns on investment. At the same time, plant budgets are under corporate scrutiny to operate in the most efficient (cost effective) form. Additionally, environmental and health conditions are evaluated to maintain a beneficial environment for the worker and the public.

What Do We Do?

To operate in this competitive corporate environment, plants need resources to modernize and become more cost effective. While plant personnel are busy operating plants, the demand to make improvements becomes increasingly difficult for plant personnel to achieve on their own. While the plant does what they do best, produce product, let Ed Booth and Associates provide resources to assess and evaluate existing systems, offer a plan of action to improve, and design/build new systems as needed.
