Praise for MVT

"I have never come across a more powerful business tool than MVT to identify what needs to be done."
?Ed Mueller, CEO, Williams-Sonoma

"The [MVT] payoff is so big that just word of mouth keeps companies coming . . . DuPont rescheduled maintenance shutdowns at a polymer plant, increasing annual output by $18 million. SBC analyzed factors influencing sales practices, boosting revenues 167%. International Specialty Products improved manufacturing efficiency at a chemical plant, adding $1.5 million in profits."
?BusinessWeek

"After Circuit City instituted MVT-validated concepts in stores, it saw an immediate 3% comparable-store sales rise. It tested the changes three separate times to make sure the benefits were real."
?Forbes

"[MVT] has aided companies such as DuPont and Monsanto to redesign chemical plants . . .and even told the National Enquirer what to put on its cover."
?The Economist

"MVT allows companies to test many changes in procedure at once, rather than one-at-a-time . . . the technique is analogous to polling a small, carefully chosen sample of voters to predict how millions will vote."
?The Wall Street Journal

"[MVT] is designed to be a low-cost approach, altering methods, not equipment."
?The New York Times

"The real power of MVT is that you engage all of your workforce in generating the ideas, designing the experiment, implementing the experiment, and actually retaining and sustaining the gains you generate."
?Andy Mouhot, International Paper
