The Operational Bottleneck
Uncoordinated scheduling, frequent plan changes, and push production lead to excessive WIP, stockouts of critical parts, and late customer deliveries.
Common Floor Challenge:
Our Floor Implementation Approach
We follow a rigorous, hands-on methodology to execute changes on your lines. Here is exactly what we do:
- 1Step 1: Analyze demand variability and establish product categorization (ABC/XYZ analysis).
- 2Step 2: Implement Drum-Buffer-Rope or Kanban demand-pull scheduling mechanisms.
- 3Step 3: Design visual production boards and daily scheduling update routines.
- 4Step 4: Align raw material procurement with finite shopfloor capacity schedules.
- 5Step 5: Train planning teams on dynamic leveling (Heijunka) techniques.
