Troubleshooting

Not everything goes right. When problems happen with calf raising, the fallout is usually dramatic. Low growth and increased morbidity and mortality are examples. So, identifying and solving problems on the farm is critical and sometimes an “extra pair of eyes” can find the problem when others can’t. Especially when those eyes have 40 years of experience looking at calves!

So, too, when problems crop up in the lab or boardroom. Problems with calf feed formulations. How to finalize the calf research project that may have missing data. Whatever the issue, if it’s related to calves, Dr. Quigley is likely to have a solution for you.

With experience in both academia and industry, Jim brings a wide breadth of knowledge to bear on your problem. If you’re problem is calf product or program related, he’s likely to have similar experience. Whether you are still in the planning stages of a new product, dealing with a spike in on-farm calf mortality, or dealing with a report of feed quality problems in the field, it’s likely that Jim has been there and done that.

“There is a time in the life of every problem when it is big enough to see, yet small enough to solve.”
— Mike Leavitt

The approach to problem solving is straightforward:

Clearly define the problem. Clarify for complete understanding.
Gather information from multiple sources – experience, literature, AI resources, cusomer input
Develop root cause hypothesis.
Develop action steps.
Execute the action plan and evaluate each step as executed
Evaluate and report the results

A well defined process lends discipline to the process and gives the greatest chance for success. We challenge the process throughout to ensure the path is the one most likely to lead to success. And, of course, the process is collaborative – we stay in contact throughout.
