Manufacturing Improvement GuideThe 100 day (20 week) manufacturing improvement guide below is designed to help you to build on current strengths to deliver year on year improvement and support business growth. Each of the 10 low cost or no cost projects covers an important area of improvement capability. There is no mention of Lean, TPM or Six Sigma techniques in the guide. Rather the individual strengths of these tools have been combined into a single structured improvement route map. This (hopefully) jargon free guide will help your organisation to release time to develop the business as well as reduce costs and improve performance in key areas.

Once you have registered we will send you the first three briefings (one for each organisational level) covering the first 4 weeks of activity. We will send you the remaining 7 in line with the above timetable. To help you to measure progress, we provide a 10 point organisational health check(Click here). Complete this prior to the start and at key stages during the programme. This health check measures progress against behavioural benchmarks to provide a lead indicator of performance improvement. Using the Programme Use the health check to identify current state of organisational fitness Irrespective of score, treat activities 1 to 3 of the 100 day plan as both an investigation and as evidence of your organisational ability to take on new challenges. Use activities 4 to 7 to support the development of an agreed plan of action to target key areas of weakness Use activities 8 to 10 to implement the plan. Revisit the assessment in week 10 and see how far the organisation has improved. You could surprise yourself at how much progress your organisation has made. Although the assessment is qualitative, these measures are lead indicators of results. Use the second half of the programme to involve more functions and build their confidence. The briefing notes include recommendations for managing your improvement agenda after the first 100 days programme using quarterly action learning projects (click here) to set the heart beat for the improvement process and sustain momentum.
