Four Ways TDC Can Help
Choose the challenge that best matches your operation—or begin with a conversation and let Todd help identify the right starting point.
A Practical Three-Step Engagement
A focused path from the constraint in front of you to useful management action.
1. Define the Issue
Clarify the priorities, recurring problems, and desired outcome.
2. See the Process
Review the data and workflow onsite, remotely, or both.
3. Prioritize Action
Receive practical findings your management team can evaluate and use.
Proven in Demanding Manufacturing Operations
Todd combines manufacturing operations, business management, Industrial Engineering, Lean, Six Sigma, Theory of Constraints, and time-and-motion methods to evaluate the whole operation—not one department in isolation.
“Todd Drummond spent a week at our facility in Central Texas. He methodically walked us through every part of our business and practices, tailoring the information to meet our specific needs.”

Lampasas Building Components
TDC does not receive referral compensation from plate or equipment vendors. Recommendations are based on the client’s operation, goals, and return on investment.
Specialized Expertise Beyond TDC Consulting
Connections to Proven Experts
When a need falls outside TDC’s direct consulting scope, Todd can help connect manufacturers with independent specialists for a more informed next conversation.
Mergers & Acquisitions
Introductions to independent professionals for purchase, sale, preparation, and specialized deal guidance.
Design Services
Introductions for overflow capacity and specialized truss, wall-panel, or related component work.
Software & AppWright
Todd separately represents AppWright and can help determine whether it or another independent specialist fits the need.
Referred providers are independent businesses, and clients review qualifications, scope, fees, and engagement terms directly with them. TDC does not receive referral compensation from plate or equipment vendors.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is TDC only for truss and wall-panel operations?
TDC’s deepest experience comes from that specialized market, but the same principles of labor clarity, workflow, planning, and operational discipline apply across many manufacturing environments.
Will we receive theory or practical guidance?
TDC emphasizes clear findings, practical recommendations, and changes teams can apply—not a long report for its own sake.
Are equipment recommendations vendor-driven?
No. TDC does not receive referral compensation from plate or equipment vendors. Recommendations are based on the client’s operation, goals, and return on investment.
Do you work onsite or remotely?
Both. The approach is matched to the operational need. Onsite work supports direct observation; data review, planning, follow-up, and some training can often be handled remotely.
