Space for Strategic Growth: saving time in Daily Management

Training Course on SFM (SHOPFLOOR MANAGEMENT®)

Today’s top management is increasingly called upon to make major strategic choices and focus on the company’s growth and competitiveness. However, day-to-day operations and management often take valuable time away from them.

For top management to focus on strategic aspects, the company must function autonomously-an organized system becomes indispensable. ShopFloor Management®, through monitoring, continuous improvement and day-to-day management of production processes, ensures a more efficient, collaborative and responsive workflow.

It offers a structured, shared vision that enables companies to respond with agility to change by improving communication and collaboration among various organizational levels.

Lavazza, our BestPractice Partner, has been applying SFM for more than a decade now, with significant results in terms of performance, competitiveness and continued growth. Get these results too, for a competitive and continuously improving company!

We look forward to seeing you at the Training Course dedicated to SFM, hosted by Lavazza, an opportunity to experience first-hand the benefits of the approach.

Increasing operational efficiency with TPM: a boost for competitiveness

Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) Training

On average, equipment efficiency in the company amounts to 40%, which is equivalent to a waste rate of 60%.

Today, under very challenging exogenous and endogenous conditions, a company cannot afford economic, time, energy, and performance waste due to equipment malfunction.

TPM is an approach to maintenance aimed at maximizing the efficiency, reliability, and productivity of plant and equipment through the involvement of all workers. Maintenance thus becomes a shared and participatory responsibility.

Learn more about this topic during the TPM Dedicated Training Course, hosted by Sidel, our BestPractice Partner and winner of JIPM’s TPM Excellence Award 2023. We will share best practices, skills for immediate and lasting improvement, tips on how to integrate TPM into corporate culture, and insights from the Sidel case study.

EMPOWERING OPERATIONS WITH ENTERPRISE ARCHITECTURE

ORCHESTRATING PROCESSES, DATA AND TECHNOLOGY TO DRIVE OPERATIONAL EXCELLENCE AND CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT

DO YOU WANT TO INTRODUCE DIGITAL INTO YOUR BUSINESS TO IMPROVE YOUR COMPANY’S OPERATIONAL PROCESSES?DO YOU WANT TO IMPLEMENT EFFECTIVE DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION IN LINE WITH BUSINESS GOALS?

To effectively drive digital transformation, which is vital in today’s competitive environment, it is important to have an accurate understanding of processes, data and technologies and thus be able to make correct and quick decisions.

Useful for this purpose is the Enterprise Architecture (EA), a description of an organization’s structure, operational processes, information systems and flows, and technologies.

The EA connects business objectives to IT solutions, merging processes, data, and technology to streamline operations and stimulate continuous improvement. In this way, data drives strategic decisions, optimizing resources and enhancing operational efficiency for focused and continuous innovation.

Want to find out how to set up an Enterprise Architecture project and what results it can deliver, including practical examples?

We look forward to seeing you on Thursday, June 13, 5-6 p.m., in free live streaming!

MODULAR PRODUCT DESIGN

INCREASE REACTIVITY AND PROFIT WITH PRODUCT MODULARIZATION

DO YOU WANT TO OFFER YOUR CUSTOMERS A WIDE RANGE OF PRODUCTS, WITH CUSTOMIZATION OPTIONS, BUT REDUCE COSTS AND ACHIEVE BETTER PRODUCT PERFORMANCE?

By applying Modularization and Standardization you can!

In a so-called customer’s market and an increasingly dynamic one, it is important to be able to respond to the variety of demand in order to meet customers’ needs and win their trust and thus remain competitive.

External variety, however, has very high production, logistical, warehousing, technical and sometimes even personal costs in terms of stress.

By breaking the product down into standardized parts (so-called modules), which can be assembled together in various ways, thanks to equally standardized interfaces, cost and differentiation benefits are simultaneously guaranteed.

Want to learn more about this topic? We look forward to seeing you on Tuesday, 14/05, 5-6 pm, in free live streaming.

How to modularize and standardize to reduce costs

For years we have been in a so-called customer market and one characterized by great dynamism. In order to remain competitive, many companies try to differentiate themselves by the high customization possibilities of the products they offer. This, however, leads to the proliferation of product variants, with very high production, logistics, warehousing, technical and sometimes even stress-related costs. Standardization and modularization enable customized responses in terms of functions and customer value without necessarily generating a proliferation of variants.

How can interesting results be achieved? What are the steps to follow? What are also the risks and critical points to watch out for?
