Reducing "non-value-added activities" to focus more on lean manufacturing systems

SGL SOLUTION

Customer Requirements

A leading construction equipment manufacturer needed to reduce "non-value-added activities" or waste to decrease burden and increase their ability to focus on developing production activities (core activities). They also wanted to improve the efficiency of parts feeding into the production line.

Our Services and Customer Benefits

One of the causes SGL discovered was that the quantity in standard packaging from overseas suppliers exceeded production line requirements. This resulted in the production line wasting time picking and repacking goods to achieve the desired quantity before sending them to production - which is considered a "non-value-added activity." It also wasted storage space.
