TJO Konsultatsioonid

What TJO Konsultatsioonid does

TJO Konsultatsioonid OÜ is an Estonian management consulting and training firm headquartered in Tallinn that has operated since 1997. The company delivers three core consulting practices: Efficiency and Lean (production efficiency analysis, 5S, Lean Daily Management, Lean 6 Sigma, process mapping, digitalization roadmapping); Management Systems (development and certification support for ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 27001, ISO 45001, ISO 50001, IATF 16949, AQAP, FSC/PEFC/MSC, CE marking, and internal audits); and Strategy (business model analysis, strategic plans, Balanced Scorecard, export plans, EU funding applications). It complements these practices with a public training calendar, customized in-house training, and multi-session development programs (Quality Manager, Production Manager, Lean Specialist, AIAG Core Tools). The firm's primary customers are Estonian manufacturing and production companies, with secondary reach into IT, medical devices, engineering, construction, forestry, and defense-adjacent suppliers. Notable clients include ABB, Stora Enso, Enics, Kodumaja, Favor, MS Balti Trafo, Evocon, Brightspark, Trinidad Wiseman, Semetron, Pelltech, Hevi Engineering, Merrem Tööstusplast, and Timbeco Woodhouse.

The business is organized as an Estonian private limited company (OÜ), founder-owned and self-funded, with no disclosed external investment, parent company, or subsidiaries. There is no proprietary technology product; the firm uses industry-standard statistical tools (e.g., Minitab) in training and standard digital platforms for virtual delivery. Pricing is per-participant for public training (€290–€580 per participant, plus VAT), fixed for development programs (e.g., €3,415 + VAT for the AIAG Core Tools program), and scope-based for consulting engagements. Go-to-market is sales-led and direct: customers are reached through the company website, training calendar, email newsletter, LinkedIn and Facebook channels, and direct outreach by phone/email, with delivery in Estonian, English, and Russian. TJO holds distinctive institutional relationships as the Estonian-language translator of ISO standards for the Estonian Standards Centre and as a qualified provider under the Eesti Töötukassa training-card program and Regional Development Centres partnership.
