Introduction

Production Flow

Problems

Redundancies in the production process and a lack of a centralized inventory system have led to a decrease in operational efficiency, compromising both sales, lead times and product quality.

Audit

Proposal

Solution

  • Add seasonal workers to catch up on backlogged orders

  • In the long term, if additional staff reduces lead times, Meumet may consider hiring on a permanent basis

  • Stock parts in grey, white and unpainted for effective just-in-time approach thus blending just-in-case with just-in-time

  • Centralized sales system to consolidate and track all orders and inventory

  • Central online sales system must require down payments to confirm orders thus reducing the probability of order cancellation

  • Agencies should focus on sales, on-site assembly and repairs
