UPKAIZEN acts strictly as a strategic solution curator and referral consultant. The alliances listed here are based on our analysis of strategic fit and value. However, UPKAIZEN is not the direct implementer, reseller, or responsible for the contractual agreements, technical execution, or warranty of products or services offered by our partners. We strongly advise every client to perform their own legal and technical due diligence before entering into any contract.
At UPKAIZEN, our mission is driven by operational transformation and sustainable profitability. We only engage with technology and service providers who demonstrate clear ROI and effective risk mitigation for SMEs. If your solution solves niche problems and offers measurable value, we are ready to forge a strategic alliance.
Solutions must be specific to Make-to-Order (MTO/ETO) Manufacturing, Warehouse Logistics, or Predictive AI. We focus on specialized partners, not generalists.
Demonstrated ability to provide a quantifiable Return on Investment in under 12 months. Your technology must resolve an urgent, high-cost pain point.
Capacity to comply with NDAs and legal agreements. We only collaborate with entities that value formal process and structural seriousness (e.g., legal entities with proven business history).
Step 1: Strategic Alignment Request: Submit our online qualification form detailing: The specific niche problem your solution uniquely solves and your best success case showing quantified ROI.
Step 2: Review and NDA: UPKAIZEN will evaluate the strategic fit. Only if there is a clear alignment will we proceed to sign the Mutual Non-Disclosure Agreement.
Step 3: Proof of Concept: To validate execution capacity, the partner must demonstrate value via a Strategic Clarity Session. This step confirms structural alignment and commitment to high-value collaboration.
Step 4: Alliance Activation: Upon successful validation, we establish the terms of the referral agreement and strategic content collaboration.
If your solution meets our structural criteria and value expectations, we are ready to proceed efficiently.
I believe that it is healthy laziness that moves the world and business forward, and I am always ready to help find the most effective and appropriate solutions concerning strategic and change management, as well as various efficiency solutions in office work.
As a practicing consultant in Latvia, I already have 20 years of experience in various fields related to the optimization of organizational management:
I am constantly updating my knowledge both informally – following everything new in my areas of competence, and also formally: I have master’s degrees in pedagogy, economics, nutrition science, and modeling of sociotechnical systems. In 2021, I was a full-time student again for 1 semester – at the University of Buffalo (USA).
It is this unique “set” that allows me to view various processes, trends, and organizational needs holistically, offering realistic and at the same time modern solutions.
I also share my experience with students of various Latvian universities, I have given lectures in Lithuania, Germany, and Moldova as part of the Erasmus+ program, as well as participated in the international Sail program.
I also like to conduct corporate training.
