Are you CEO of a Farm business, or any other small, medium, large or multinational manufacturing company? Then you must know that the MOST IMPORTANT goal of your BUSINESS is to make money: That happens via increasing net profit while simultaneously increasing Return On Investment (ROI) and Cash Flow?
The above mentioned are 3 crucial measurements to evaluate your progress – at the TOP decision making level of your company!
For the lower level operatives on the shop floor, however, you WILL often need to find measurements which explain the GOAL of making money (by being productive) perfectly well, but which also permit you to develop OPERATIONAL RULES for managing your processes.
So your business’ goal stated in the above paragraph could be translated – for use on the shop floor/in the market – as: to make money by increasing THROUGHPUT (i.e. the rate at which products are manufactured AND sold) while simultaneously reducing INVENTORY and OPERATING EXPENSE.
Are you consistently able to get YOUR in-demand quality product manufactured and into the market on time at the cost that can beat the competition? A BOPMS™ (i.e. Best Operating Process Management System™) can help you become able to say YES anytime you consider that question.
The process involved in establishing/entrenching BOPMS™ in your process will help you derive those measures you need and test them for use successfully in productively managing your plant.
Successfully entrenching a BOPMS™ in your company will also make you MUCH better prepared to qualify for best practice accreditation should you wish to go for it (Contact me and I will explain why/how).
You must however LEARN how to do the THINKING for yourself, so that SUBSEQUENTLY, after I step back, you can competently develop your BOPMS™ further over time, as changes that inevitably take place WILL CONTINUALLY force you to evolve IMPROVED methods/approaches. (Re: Continuous Improvement).
My approach to Best Practice systems development is designed to eliminate non-essential elements of the traditional methods in order to help the willing client SAVE money and time in adopting it for his/her use.
From observing businesses operating in our local environment over the years, I have become convinced that a quicker/shorter but VERY customised version of the Best Practice system implementation will WORK if properly executed.
My BOPMS™ components checklist is designed to help the client make cost-effective choices that will ensure s/he gets exactly what works best for his/her process.
Contact me, if you want to learn more about how I can help your company achieve the ultimate goal described above.
In case you nurse fear that this could be a waste of time, I will add two things:
1). My fees are affordable but NOT cheap. That is why I accept enquiries ONLY from the business owner – who takes the final decisions.
2). In the past, I implemented a BOPMS™ – which included a 2-day Generic training for factory operatives – for a Lagos based manufacturing company, and have worked closely with the Managing Director and the factory staff over a two week period.
The results already achieved attest to my claims. Contact me, and I will elaborate.
