Voetsek Solutions

Cut drag and bureaucracy in public and private sector.

Scott Rheeder helps teams identify quick fixes first, then turns deeper operational problems into a paid BIRT review with annexes.

The offer

No programme. Just movement.

The first job is to remove the fog. Book a free 2hr onsite visit with Scott to look at the problem and talk through quick fixes for the bosses. The deeper 24 hour to 2 week solution review is paid work, ending in a BIRT review and annexes your leadership can actually use.

B

Background

Give leaders enough context without burying the point.

I

Issue

Name where in the system the problem actually sits.

R

Recommendation

Set the route forward with a decision attached.

T

Separate what has to move now from what can wait.

About Scott

Direct experience. Practical output.

Scott Rheeder, founder of Voetsek Solutions.

Voetsek is not about credentials on paper. It is for teams that need someone to step into a blocked system, identify what is not moving, and return a clear route forward.

Scott specialises in public sector and MOD-adjacent process consulting, with bespoke private-sector and small-business support where the same approval loops, unclear ownership, and red tape are slowing output.

Why this matters

Where in the system is the problem? That is the first question. Once the real constraint is named, senior management can act instead of circling the same blockage.

0121 years under pressure

Army logistics

Scott brings 21 years of Army experience as a senior logistics, operations, and fuel manager delivering logistics worldwide under extreme conflict and peacetime conditions.

02Cost, time, and output

Transformation work

He has led and supported high-profile transformation projects, procurement planning, commodity storage and transport, and operational work that identifies critical issues and delivers outputs to specification.

03No sugar coating

Direct clarity

Scott is skilled, agile, and used to leading through transformation and continuous improvement. His direct South African nature gives you clarity on what is needed.

Proof

Experience from systems that stall.

Practical judgement from public, MOD-adjacent, private-sector, and small-business environments where bureaucracy, pressure, and slow decisions have real cost.

01

UN Tour Cyprus

Relationship-led delivery

Through excellent interpersonal skills, Scott negotiated and executed the biggest clean-up in the buffer zone in 34 years by building relationships with Turkish and Greek military teams and municipalities. That work allowed historical Nicosia old town buildings to be shored up and protected from collapse.

02

DHSC COVID labs

Output doubled

Scott doubled the output of every lab he reviewed by identifying choke points, improving flow, and changing practical behaviours under pressure.

03

Buckinghamshire County Council

Two-week setup

Scott led a team of four to set up lateral flow testing facilities for key workers in two weeks, helping ensure they could continue delivering care to the UK.

04

Military context

TEPIDOIL and CADMID

Project management and procurement process experience across TEPIDOIL (Training, Equipment, Personnel, Infrastructure, Doctrine, Organisation, Information, Logistics) and CADMID (Concept, Assessment, Demonstration, Manufacture, In-Service, Disposal).

Trust and public fit

Safe enough to send. Clear enough to act.

Prospective clients need to know two things before they make contact: Scott understands public-sector drag, and the first problem visit can happen without exposing the wrong detail.

Redacted first

Send the shape of the problem, not classified material, internal passwords, or sensitive personal data. The first job is to make the issue safe to discuss.

Public logic

The assessment is built around approvals, scrutiny, handovers, unclear ownership, and slow senior decisions in public, MOD-adjacent, private-sector, and small-business environments.

Decision output

The paid review is not a slide deck. Scott sends back a BIRT review with annexes so senior management can see the actions they need to take.

Relevant contexts include UN operations, MOD-style process work, Department of Health and Social Care COVID lab efficiency, Buckinghamshire lateral flow testing setup, and private-sector process innovation.

Assess the problem

Field evidence from COVID lab review work.
Can I send sensitive or classified detail?+

No. Start with redacted context only. The form asks for enough detail to understand the blockage, not protected material.

Is this only for MOD work?+

No. Scott covers public, MOD-adjacent, private-sector, and small-business work where process friction is slowing decisions or output.

What happens after the assessment?+

The assessment prepares the context to book a free 2hr onsite visit with Scott. If the problem needs deeper solution work, the paid review runs for 24 hours to 2 weeks and returns a BIRT review with annexes.

Next move

Got one decision that keeps circling?

Use the assessment to turn a stuck operational problem into something Scott can read, score, and answer with a practical route.

Assessment

Send the problem. Get the route.

This is built to capture the kind of problem Scott can actually review. It filters urgency, blockage, impact, decision owner, and contact detail into one BIRT-ready brief.

Early signal

Clarify the decision path first

The problem may need one more pass before a full review. Start by naming the decision, the owner, and what happens if nothing changes.
