Improving Performance

by Reducing the Seven Wastes

The Problem:

You already know the problem! The customer wants a lower price, a better product, in less time and in smaller quantities.

Our Solution:

We will use Best Practice to reduce the 7 Wastes which are:

• Overproduction
• Inventory
• Transport
• Process Waste
• Idle Time
• Operator Motion
• Quality Problems

The Seven Wastes are a summary of well known production wastes expressed with admirable simplicity by Taiichi Ohno of Toyota. The trick is learning to spot these wastes in a factory or service environment and analyse their effect on the business.

We will develop solutions tailored to:

• Your Business
• Your Culture
• Your Products
• Your Budget

Product Technik adopt a pragmatic approach to eliminating waste. To eliminate waste from most work areas using the Toyota Manufacturing System may take several years. Instead we use techniques called the Theory of Constraints to address the key areas, known as bottlenecks, which will yield an immediate and sustainable improvement in business performance.

We will give value for money
