MENU About Orion
Orion Development Group helps organizations create operational clarity and improve performance through process documentation and process improvement. We document, refine and standardize how work gets done.
Since 1993, Orion has worked with hundreds of organizations across utilities, healthcare, financial services, manufacturing, education, and government to address operational bottlenecks, scalability challenges, technology readiness, cross-functional cooperation, strategy execution, and the loss of institutional knowledge.
What Good Process Management Really Looks Like?
Effective performance does not come from micromanaging people, but from clearly defining, documenting, and managing how work flows across teams. In this session, Bob Boehringer, Orion’s Vice President of Process Management, teaches a class of leaders how to design processes that are self-sufficient, with clear inputs, outputs, and accountability at every handoff. This approach helps organizations reduce rework, eliminate hidden costs, and improve performance at scale.

Quality That Creates Self-Sufficiency
Orion’s quality is reflected in the lasting operational clarity and self-sufficiency our clients achieve. Our process documentation, process improvement, and management training are designed to build internal capability, not long-term dependence on external consultants.
Each year, Orion trains more managers in process improvement techniques than any other firm. This teaching capability is a key reason our process documentation and process improvement work delivers lasting results. We believe the solutions to business challenges must come from within, which is why Orion designs documented, well-governed processes that teams can manage independently once the work is complete. As a result, Orion’s clients achieve long-term success because our methodology builds lasting self-sufficiency.
Orion’s expertise in process documentation, process improvement, and process management is recognized by universities from coast to coast; by foreign firms that seek process management certification and/or credibility; and by respected publishers. Indeed, even competing consulting firms have selected Orion to teach them process management.
