Rezensionen

"I strongly recommend you consider the "Nomura Method" to help you implement TPS. It has allowed our organization to rise to new levels of lean management expertise, from the plant floor to the back office, including optimizing our distribution companies and even helping our suppliers and customers to do the same. We are living proof that an organization can reinvent itself using this method, even as we approach our 100 year anniversary!

Some results we achieved in our journey (so far) are:

• The Raymond Team achieved a defect reduction from a baseline average in 2006 of 1.23 defects per unit down to 0.0036 defects per unit in November of 2019



• In one Raymond facility we increased production from 4,000 units shipped in 2008 to 22,000 units shipped in 2019 within the same MFG square footage (450% increase), optimizing before we automate



• Our Raymond associates have generated over 100,000 kaizen suggestions from the inception of the Kaizen program in 2007



• The Raymond Greene Plant received the 2015 Toyota Industries President's Award in recognition of our exceptional achievements and contribution toward the Global TOSO Paint Improvement Project activity"
