- Steve Novak is the founder and president of PPR Management Services, LLC. I have three primary areas of business; consulting, education, and coaching. I focus on business operations and strategic planning. I help organizations and individuals identify and achieve their goals. I am the author of The Small Manufacturing Toolkit (CRC Press).

The Small Manufacturer's Toolkit describes numerous management systems and tools, including Lean, Six Sigma, Sales & Operations Planning, Theory of Constraints, The Baldrige Criteria, Project Management, and more, then provides a diagnostic tool to help you decide which one is best for you.
