It is common knowledge that production is at the core of any manufacturing business but the reality is often quite different. At ASL we have come across many businesses where all other departments strived to be successful individually while still expecting the production function to blindly meet the customers' expectations, regardless of the hurdles imposed on it. ASL can assess your current set up and help you to re-align other processes to add value to the product, to the customer.
At ASL we believe in Lean! We can offer you our knowledge and hands on experience with various manufacturing facilities, from the most demanding players in the automotive industry through to aerospace and consumer goods manufacturers. Very often companies simply make things too complicated and over a period of time get to a stage where their production systems get out of control and no longer work in an effective way. ASL can assess your manufacturing needs and improve your processes whilst using Lean tools like 5S, VSM (Value Stream Mapping), TPM (Total Productive Maintenance), Set-Up Reduction etc. to match your manufacturing operations to your business needs.
At ASL we also truly believe in continuous improvement and using tools like Six Sigma to address your processes´ variances and ultimately helping you to improve your bottom line.
