While most modern manufacturing companies have invested in performance management tools, they often fail to drive improvement in anticipated ways. Without a performance management methodology that glues the pieces together and creates a culture that truly drives business decision-making based on metrics, companies can’t realize the value of key performance indicators.

Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) is a key performance indicator (KPI) used to measure performance in a given process, and is calculated by combining constituent components of availability (uptime), (performance) rate, and quality/yield. OEE is a simple metric that provides a wealth of information that is useful for directing an organization’s resources including engineering, continuous improvement, safety, quality, and even outside contractors. While OEE is an extremely valuable tool for operations management, organizations must take care to avoid the pitfalls associated with a “singular” KPI driving activities on the shop floor. Used strategically, OEE can be a valuable key in unlocking a manufacturer’s production potential.]]>

Any manufacturing packaging process where the product is being filled into individual packages has the potential of overfilling, underfilling, or having excessive uncontrolled fill variation. Companies can use Lean Six Sigma and statistical process controls to better manage package weight and volume. Proper utilization of these processes controls fill weight variation, minimizing occurrences of overfilling or underfilling, both of which can subject the manufacturer to unnecessary expenses, risk of litigation or brand damage. Companies that optimize filling can generate substantial savings without any capital investment and achieve a competitive advantage.]]>

Proactive, timely maintenance of plant equipment is critical to enabling manufacturers to meet a dizzying number of demands, from pressure to achieve target output levels, minimize labor costs, control parts spending and ensure maximum uptime. Manufacturers rely on their maintenance departments to help achieve these goals on a daily basis. However, a great number of manufacturers still use maintenance on a reactive basis rather than viewing it as strategic to operations. Myrtle Consulting helps manufacturers convert maintenance into a proactive, scheduled operation that is used strategically to control costs, maximize uptime, and maintain critical equipment. By following a few fundamental principles, plants can begin to establish a maintenance improvement program that supports operations and improves plant performance.]]>

In an effort to minimize waste and more strategically spend every dollar, more and more companies are exploring Zero-Based Budgeting (ZBB). As opposed to incremental budgeting, where last year’s budget serves as the primary driver for budget allocations for the coming year, ZBB allocates funds based on the merits of each department’s policies, goals and spending justifications. However, transitioning to a ZBB process within manufacturing can be challenging and labor-intensive for organizations and their teams. Built on three core pillars of People, Process and Performance, Myrtle’s ZBB Excellence Approach is designed to enhance the effectiveness of the ZBB work process and achieve all of the advantages and insights of ZBB while minimizing workload, confusion and frustration. Myrtle’s ZBB Excellence Approach gives companies a standard but flexible methodology to optimize and monitor the critical corporate process of capital allocation to ensure operational success.]]>
