Major steel producer exceeds lead time targets with one-piece flow implementation
After partnering with Implementation Engineers (IE) on multiple engagements recently, our client looked to us again to help them increase output by ~50% from 3.5 tons to 5.0 tons. An initial operational review revealed two major bottlenecks:
1) excessive lead times in various steps in its process
2) more than 14,000 material coil processing paths.
