| Résumé : |
Adhesives and sealants manufacturers face unique challenges compared to other industries when undergoing lean or continuous improvement initiatives, including chemical reactions, vessels, batch sizes, curing times, long setups and required cleaning, regulatory mandates, and very technical processes that must be tightly controlled. None of these issues are addressed by the lean techniques that grew from the automotive industry in order to flow cars down a production line. So how can this industry create flow in its high-variety, complex environments? To start, operations must take a different approach to continuous improvement itself. |
| Note de contenu : |
- Continuous improvement vs. operational excellence
- Designing for operational excellence
- The importance of the interval
- Capability, not capacity
- FIGURES : 1. Progress can start and stop on the staircase of continous improvement, and sometimes backslide or plateau - 2. Operational excellence enables companies to make one giant leap in progress, and then continuously improve from there |
