Imagine, there is a big operational plant. Morning shift has started. Machines are running.
Operators are at their stations. Production plan is set. The whole plant seems energetic and busy.
But there is an interesting question. Is this busy plant actually efficient? A machine's changeover can be optimized a little more. Material is moving to reach the next process. Somewhere, operator is waiting for the machine cycle to complete. Somewhere, machine is waiting for manpower availability. Individually, this gap may seem small. But with hundreds of people, multiple machines and thousands of production cycles, the impact of this small improvement becomes multiple. D&V Business Consulting, value stream mapping, OEE, SMED, line balancing, time and motion study, shop floor flow study with lean tools like TPM and Kaizen. We identify where time can be optimized, where movement can be simplified, where bottleneck can be released, where productivity can be unlocked. After that, better layout, smoother material flow, standard work, visual control and measurable improvement action are implemented. Same factories, same infrastructure, better utilization, better productivity, better output potential. Lean means not only cost saving. Lean means creating stronger performance with existing resources. D&V Business Consulting, from strategy to system, from system to scale.
