Transform Your Business With Lean Management
NJMEP creates high performance manufacturing firms through a strategy of transformation, continually eliminating non-value activities associated with conducting business.
Lean Enterprise enables companies to produce more with existing resources while eliminating “non value-added” activities at every level of your organization. Implementing Lean has successfully cut an average of 20% of the time, effort, or costs associated with manufacturing processes.
Ask yourself…
- Are you unable to manufacture more, earlier, and faster than required by your customer?
- Does production stop when an employee is away, or parts are out of stock?
- Do you need to improve the effectiveness employees on the shop floor and in the office?
- Is poor communication and inflexibility slowing down processes?
- Are you missing on-time delivery?
- Are batch sizes much larger than consumption rates?
- Do you perform lots of re-work?
If you answered “Yes”, your solution is NJMEP’s Lean Enterprise.
