Problem Solving In Manufacturing

WHAT IS A PROBLEM SOLVER:

PROBLEM SOLVERS are people who don’t see problems. Only Opportunity

  • Some people see problems and just moan – We see potential to improve
  • We use intuition, expertise & knowledge to see a problem & a solution
  • Problem Solving starts by ‘watching people work’ and data collection

Services We Offer

.

LETS ASK SOME QUESTIONS:

People:- When you walk around the shop-floor:- How many people are idle, discussing a problem, maybe just talking?

Machines:– How often are they stopped – How often are they broken down – How much production is lost?

Quality:– Product has to be “Right First Time” otherwise production is lost – remaking parts costs money…

Time:– How much time is lost in remaking parts – How much do you pay to get the scrap taken away?

Inventory:– When parts are needed can it be found – How much has been on the shelf “for ever”

Deliveries:- What is the financial cost to the business in late deliveries?

What keeps you awake at night (work only)?
