Man looks into the technology of a machine

World Class Manufacturing

 

A series of concepts, principles, strategies and techniques form the basis of World Class Manufacturing as an operational process.

With the WCM principle, we can reduce costs and achieve continuous improvement in quality, production time and customer service – and we can do this in line with all the departments and objectives involved in production.

 
 

Through WCM, all employees are involved in solving the problems they face.

Everyone working with WCM must understand a range of different tasks. These include preventive maintenance and other highly specialised activities, as well as the collection and analysis of relevant data.

There is no better way to get feedback on production activities than to rely on those who directly carry out these production activities on a daily basis.

 
 
 

The main objective of the WCM principle is to significantly optimise the entire production chain: circumstances that lead to a negative event are analysed and eliminated. At the same time, WCM is a forecasting tool for possible future negative events.

Everyone in the company must be both a teacher and a learner for the work of the entire team to be successful.
