Manufacturing Excellence
Manufacturing Excellence
    Manufacturing Excellence combines the benefits of World Class Manufacturing, Total Productive Maintenance and the Business Excellence Model. It is a structured approach to improving business performance.

 

World Class Manufacturing (WCM)

    This is a simple, uncomplicated management strategy that directs focus on the customer and emphasis on cycle time reduction. It is a people-centred approach to improving manufacturing performance and achieving sustained competitive advantage. AMT Ireland has over 10 years experience in this area.

 

New Product Introduction (NPI)

    This proven Business Process Re-engineering based methodology installs Concurrent Engineering-based management, methods, organisation and systems in your business which support improved Product Development and introduction to Manufacturing. AMT Ireland can support you in bringing products from Opportunity Identification, right through the Development Process, into full Production. Working with you we can identify and address any impediment to progress.

    The result is improved product and manufacturing competitiveness, a better return on investment and reduced risk and time to market.

 

NPI Tools, Techniques and Technologies

    A portfolio of methods and systems to improve NPI team and project performance.

 

NPI Management

    An immediately available resource which can deliver supplementary expertise and assistance to support the in-house management of product development.

 

Total Productive Maintenance (TPM)

    This is a process improvement technique aimed at maximising overall equipment effectiveness in manufacturing. TPM challenges the complacent view of 'maintenance' and production operators to engender a sense of joint responsibility, not simply to keep machines running smoothly, but also to extend and optimise their performance.

 

Business Excellence Model (BEM)

    A structure for self-assessing your business to provide your organisation with a clear view of its strengths and areas for improvement. This kind of assessment can be carried out using either the Irish BEM (IBEM) or the European Foundation for Quality Management (EFQM) model.

 

Continuous Improvement and Teamwork

    Implementing the concepts and techniques of teamwork begins a journey of continuous improvement and the elimination of waste. As the journey progresses many benefits begin to accrue including improved quality levels, cycle time reduction, quicker response to customer and improved employee morale.
