History:

CCI (Consulting Concepts, Inc.) was formed in 1991 by Robert B. Gilbert (Bob) to serve as a consulting organization for clients requiring Technical Training and Technical Support. In 1991, CCI had one client, which was Motorola's Paging Products Group headquartered in Boynton Beach, Florida. Within a few years, CCI developed the Motorola account to eleven full time CCI Consultants. CCI became Motorola's Prime Contractor for all of its technical training needs. CCI had offices on Motorola's site, along with its main office on Federal Highway in Boynton Beach. CCI designed, developed and delivered all of the Technical Training required by the Paging Group in the U.S.A. and Asia. In 1998 CCI's contract with Motorola ended when Motorola closed the Boynton Beach facility and moved the Paging Group to Texas.

In 1998, Mr. Gilbert joined forces with the Florida MEP (Manufacturers Extension Partnership), and began consulting for the Department of Commerce program, specializing in Lean Transformation. After extensive training, Bob, who won the Top Gun award, worked with many companies throughout Florida to assist them in becoming Lean, and ultimately to become ISO Registered. Due to internal structural changes at the Florida MEP in 2000, Bob resigned from the organization, and reestablished his client base as CCI. In September of 2001, the reorganized Florida MEP made Bob an offer he couldn't refuse, and he and his CCI clients continued their projects under the umbrella of the MEP.

In 2005 Mr. Gilbert resigned from the MEP to create a consortium of seasoned professionals with diverse expertise to provide a complete front end to back end solution to clients? needs.

Today the CCI consortium has emerged as a leader in providing solutions that contribute to their clients' profitable growth. Using the Governor's Sterling Award criteria (similar to Malcolm Baldridge), CCI works with clients to ensure that their entire organization is in alignment, and that they truly understand their missions and their company's vision. CCI implements this through training and mentoring, and using methodologies such as Lean, ISO, Lean-Six Sigma, Theory of Constraints (TOC) and other best practices. All these value adding programs contribute to making CCI's clients more agile, profitable and better prepared to handle the future business climate.
