LevelUp™ Plus – The 10X Plant Performance Program (Opens June 16, 2025)

A results-focused leadership accelerator for operations professionals ready to solve big problems and deliver real savings.

LevelUp+ is the advanced training experience for graduates of the original LevelUp Supervisory Skills Program. Designed to transform high-potential plant leaders into problem-solvers with a measurable impact, this 10-module program gives participants the frameworks, tools, and coaching to identify costly inefficiencies, calculate their impact, and develop practical solutions across the operation.

Each module targets a core area of plant performance:

  1. Problem-Solving Frameworks – Learn how to define, scope, and prioritize operational problems.
  2. Cost Impact Analysis – Master the ability to quantify hidden losses and calculate ROI.
  3. Operations Optimization – Streamline processes to improve throughput, quality, and labor utilization.
  4. Maintenance & Downtime – Reduce unplanned outages and boost equipment reliability.
  5. Inventory Management – Tackle overstock, shrinkage, and fulfillment gaps.
  6. Customer Service Systems – Improve accuracy, responsiveness, and customer satisfaction.
  7. Energy & Utilities – Identify opportunities to lower usage and control rising utility costs.
  8. Sales & Revenue Alignment – Understand how plant operations support top-line growth.
  9. Project Planning & Implementation – Build executable action plans that drive real change.
  10. Communicating Value – Document and present savings and results with credibility.

But this isn’t just theory. Every module includes a real-world assignment where participants identify a specific opportunity inside their plant, quantify the dollar impact, and chart a realistic implementation plan. Whether it’s reducing equipment downtime, improving customer service levels, or cutting utility costs, each project contributes directly to the bottom line.

As a part of the LevelUp program, graduates have uncovered and executed projects yielding thousands in annual savings through their final Plant BOOST projects. For example, a recent graduate from one plant saved over $17,000 a year from a single solution. The average return for all LevelUp attendees to date has been $35,000 per year — for each graduate! LevelUp+ aims to 10X those returns through a program that provides participants the training, frameworks, and tools to tackle ten plant performance-focused projects focused on solving your operation’s difficult problems.

As part of the LevelUp+ program, we provide companies with a customizable framework to reward employees who solve high-impact operational problems. This includes guidance on how to structure performance-based bonuses tied to documented cost savings — helping you create a culture where innovation and initiative are recognized and financially rewarded. The goal is to turn frontline insight into measurable business gains — and give employees a reason to keep improving.

The LevelUp+ 10X Plant Program turns your training budget into an investment with real ROI, creating a culture of ownership, continuous improvement, and high performance.
