PASSION. VALUE. WORLD CLASS.

The Fourier Group

FOURIER-E CONSULTATION SERVICES

Our Industrial Engineers ensure that processes are validated, re-engineered and the operations are optimised and visible.

FOURIER-IT INNOVATION

ICT Innovation takes an organisation from the initial function of ICT capability, to a scalable, reliable compliant business support function. From automation, integration, BI solutions to IT Governance consulting.

Through development and guaranteed delivery of integrated solutions, the customers of RQTech are provided with business information on demand. RQTech participate in a vibrant partner network, providing Enterprise Content Management (ECM) solutions to our clients.

FOURIER RECRUITMENT

Offering recruitment solutions specifically tailored for the African market. We offer a full recruitment lifecycle. Matching the right talented individuals are a fundamental ingredient, for growth and developing – a competitive edge in any organisation.

The success of an organisation relies on their capability to repeatedly execute predictable processes to deliver quality services/products at a desired price to a buying market.

The Fourier Way focuses on the optimisation of an organisation by translating customer requirements and the business strategy into resilient operations to deliver quality products/service through processes and enabling and integrating the people, processes and technology.

In doing so, Fourier ensures that the workforce take accountability for delivering quality goods/services in an efficient manner to ensure resilience supported by suitable technology.

“Strive not to be a success but rather to be a value”

The Fourier Way Principles

The Fourier Way is a structured, continuous improvement methodology grounded in the Capability Maturity Model and guided by the Fourier Way Principles.

Growth, profitability and brand protection

Any organisation needs to strive for effectiveness and efficiency whilst continuously aiming to grow the business, maintain (or even increase) the profitability and protect its brand. 

Design thorough, implement fast

The Fourier Way emphasises the importance of a thorough design by designing properly before implementing a well-designed solution. 

Importance of standardised work

The Fourier Way acknowledges the importance of standardised work through the execution of documented, stable, repeatable, and predictable processes.

The chicken principle (grass root decisions)

The Fourier Way strives to enable the workforce (chicken legs) to perform their duties whilst at the same time striving for a lean middle management layer (chicken body). 

Simplified Metrics

“Only that which can be measured, can be understood and improved” however; metrics should be kept simple and unambiguous. 

Multi level accountability

Accountability sits at all levels within the organisation and a well-designed organisational structure will eliminate the need for a “check the checker” structure.

Continuous, rhythmic flow

The importance of a well-designed flow of work forms an integral part of the approach towards the optimisation of an environment. 

Doing what is right

The principle of doing what is right (and not simply what is easy) shapes the thinking behind the Fourier Way. 

Resilient solutions

The adaptability of the solution is key in an ever-changing environment. Resilient solutions can adapt to change whilst still delivering on the core purpose and requirements
