this new methodology strengthens all departments within a manufacturing organization
Everyone was trying their best, but we couldn't get out of our own way. Today, we are a much different company. We are poised and positioned for accelerated growth and will most definitely capture much more market share!" - Jason Klein, President of Engineering at Cush
SPRINGFIELD, Mo. (PRWEB) May 13, 2020
D3 announces the unveiling of Lean Enterprise, an evolution of Lean Engineering, which D3 pioneered over the last 12 years.
Lean Engineering's primary focus was limited to engineering & design processes, technologies, and data flow. The new methodology is a continuous improvement process designed to increase efficiencies & optimize every single area of a manufacturing business.
"I've been fortunate to work with manufacturing transformation initiatives for nearly three decades, and two of those have been as the founder of D3. In our twenty years of experience, D3 has cultivated a team of consultants that engaged in all levels of a manufacturing organization, helping them develop and execute business plans that achieve united goals.
It is with my own experience, combined with my team's, and our mutual commitment to manufacturing, that we have developed the Lean Enterprise methodology. This holistic approach lets us engage with our clients in ways that transform them into the company they want to be." -Kevin Schlack, President of D3 Technologies
By focusing on "The Five Pillars" for Optimum Performance in Manufacturing Business, this new methodology strengthens all departments within a manufacturing organization. Whatever the objective, the Lean Enterprise methodology lets clients achieve more than cutting waste on the production floor. By focusing on the five key areas: Leadership, People, Processes, Technology, and Data, a holistic strategy is crafted that supports every department and best suits individual, organizational needs.
The methodology was perfected over the last 18 months, as D3 collaborated with client Cush Suspensions. By focusing on the 5 pillars, the results were transformational for Cush. D3 uncovered $1M in unaccounted for inventory. Furthermore, overall overhead was reduced by 20%, costs to build products decreased by 16%, and lead times shrank from 14 weeks to 4. Cush Suspensions saw margins grow by 25%, and their Net profit increased by 3X.
"I can't thank the D3 consulting team enough. Our energy was constantly focused on putting out fires. With such high stress levels, we started to point fingers at each other trying to find what wasn't working. Everyone was trying their best, but we couldn't get out of our own way. Today, we are a much different company. We are poised and positioned for accelerated growth and will most definitely capture much more market share!" -Jason Klein, President of Engineering at Cush Suspensions.
