Why is Asset Performance So Critical in Lean Manufacturing? Read the white paper.
Lean is the elimination of enterprise waste, the streamlining of processes to increase productivity, and the more efficient use of capital assets and personnel in the pursuit of continuously improving bottom lines. But as one CFO put it, "Companies care about how many widgets they make, not the widget machine." The irony is that companies can use a CMMS/EAM software and implement lean maintenance techniques not only to make more widgets, but to make each widget more profitably.
This Lean Maintenance white paper provides concrete suggestions and identifies specific areas within the maintenance process where companies and enterprises can reduce waste, increase reliability, and view the maintenance effort as an integral part of a lean business posture.
Recommended areas of improvement:
- Optimize parts inventory so parts are available for preventative and corrective maintenance
- Facilitate preventative maintenance activities for critical assets
- Provide cross-training for personnel to allow more skill flexibility
- Encourage and empower all stakeholders initiate improvements
