Koch asked, “What is the best way to get the most reliable information available on a process to the people who need it the most, the operators? Is it with expensive franchise buy-ins? Is it with sub-par online videos with no proprietary information? Some sort of App? Is it with on the job trial and error, training and practice? What is the best way for companies to learn from each other and grow stronger as an industry and still remain highly competitive?” He also questioned, “Is quality research and development really only for those elite companies at the top, or is there another possibility?” With over a decade of “in the business experience” of cleaning, teaching, coaching, mentoring, and selling his views are radically different.
