Empowering businesses and people to Excel

"Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results" Albert Einstein

Optimance was born through Lizz having twenty years of experience in working in organisations and seeing opportunities to drive improvement, challenging the status quo, and promoting initiatives that would enhance the company in alignment with their strategic goals.

Historically, Lizz started her career in programme and project management but has since been involved in significantly important procurements within Construction, including National Highways Regional Delivery Partnership, and HS2 MWCC. Whilst the majority of her career was spent in Highways, she has since diversified into built environment and more recently nuclear.

Whether your need relates to people, procurements or operations, you’ll be in safe and reliable hands.

Let us help you Optimise your Performance

Why choose Optimance?

Personable

People prefer to do business with people, so you will always get a friendly face with a willingness to help.

We specialise working with cultural change and with a key understanding of behaviours and psychological safety.

We work with your teams and wider supply chain to drive positive improvements that everyone can buy into and champion.

Experienced

Having had 20 years working in construction and consulting, we have a passion for doing the right thing, but getting good results as well.

Typically, people get there expeirence in a particular discipline, but we do it differently. We have cradle to grave project and programme experience, and have also been involved in multi-billion pound procurements, developing strategies, and providing strategic advise.

Energetic

With a genuinely positive attitude, twinned with professional capability, you can guarantee that either acting in silo or as part of a wider team, we will bring an energy that is unmatched.

We integrate ourselves into teams seamlessly, and while we maintain independence, we understand the importance of people being part of any transformation programme.

Adaptable

Having worked in different environments, from project delivery teams, to Senior Leadership Teams (SLT) and board members, we are capable of adapting our communication style to the audience by using emotional intelligence and awareness of our environments.

This style enables us to interact with all levels of the company, including supply chain, to drive the performance improvements you need.

Our company Values

Our values and behaviours serve as guiding principles for how we operate, providing purpose and a framework for our employees, stakeholders and customers.

Safety

Keeping people psychologically safe. This covers the safety and wellbeing of our team but also of those we come into contact with.

Customer Focus

If it’s a priority for you, it’s a priority for us. We work hard to solve your problems and put you at the heart of how we deliver

Integrity

If we aren't doing the right thing, we aren't doing it. We will not compromise on our trusting relationships by acting unethically or in a way that compromises our people or clients.

Innovation and Creativity

Innovation reapplied - We don’t believe in reinventing the wheel so once we've identified something that works, will share it and monitor the results.

Peoplecentric

We believe that people hold the key in how to optimise performance so we always identify any impact of all our work on the workforce and culture of the company.
